Electrical Panel Upgrades

Many reasons motivate homeowners to upgrade their electrical service.  People begin to renovate one or more rooms in the house, only to soon realize that they will need to add additional electrical outlets in the room.  Sometimes they decide to install a home automation system that will control their appliances and lighting with keypad computer controls, or they may simply want to upgrade their lighting fixtures and develop new lighting themes for different room.  Upgrading Houston electrical services can be tricky at these times due to the strict codes that municipalities often place upon homeowners.  Additionally, handing what appears to be even a simple upgrading an electrical service panel can quickly turn into a complicated nightmare if one encounters an unknown variable not addressed in do-it yourself manuals.  Older homes especially prove challenging to electrical service upgrades (such as now defunct aluminum wiring) because they often contain components that current permitting forbids in new homes or even remodeled home projects. 

 

Illuminations Lighting Design installs all buried conduits with care and respect for your property by hand trenching all underground conduit installations.Because Houston, home to Illuminations Lighting and Design, has so many older neighborhoods such as the Heights where older homes abound, we have honed our skills in electrical service upgrading to a fine point unparalleled by our competitors.  We specialize in analyzing both the original configuration in a home, carefully listening to the general vision of renovation that the homeowner has in mind, then upgrade the electrical service accordingly.  As a team of consultants skilled equally in both the creative and the technical, we can then develop in detail the homeowner’s vision and implement the new design with all necessary technology.   You never have to worry about deed restrictions, permits, or electrical service restrictions when you upgrade with us.  All of our ditches are hand trenched by electricians who are sensitive to buried underground wiring. This is especially true when boring under driveways during electrical panel upgrades. We take care of the paperwork as well as the planning, action, and equipment.  Our team of specialists takes the time to be courteous and explain each step we take to our clients.  We know you don’t want to pay anyone to make you feel technically illiterate or shroud their work - and invoice - in mysteries too deep to understand.

 

Light eliminates mystery - it never creates it.  When we upgrade electrical service, we will also accommodate your lighting requirements both from an educational and consulting angle and an as an equipment vendor.  Adding new outlets will automatically generate increased capacity for new lights, lighting fixtures, and lighting designs.  Upgrading service to an electrical home automation system opens even more doors by allowing you to select multiple lighting themes that you can directly control from a keypad.  Our team can accommodate a simple kitchen lighting design  that will enhance wattage to key appliance, or we can upgrade outdoor electrical configurations with outdoor landscape lights that can turn your back yard into a virtual garden of light.  If your garage is due for renovation or expansion, be sure to plan this upgrade with electrical service regulations and safety foremost in mind.  Many contractors in our area offer electrical services and upgrade panels but don’t have the certifications and training our staff carry to accommodate an entire rewiring or surge protection installation.  Call us first before you begin an undertaking.

 

Lastly, and most importantly, trust Illuminations Lighting and Design to treat you as an individual.  Being fully aware that every house in Texas is unique in some way, we approach each electrical upgrade project with a service policy dedicated to long-term, customized outcomes.  Trust us to do the job not only right the first time, but to do it better and more comprehensively than anyone else.  Contact us a call today at 713-863-1133 or request a quote online.

Testimonials

Your crew did a fantastic job installing my custom home lighting. They were so clean and efficient, I could hardly tell that anyone had been in the house doing work. I had no idea that my art work would look so dramatic with the right kind of halogen low voltage art lighting. I plan to recommend your company to my friends and family. Your fine work adds greatly to the pleasure of my home.
