When a builder finishes a garage addition and needs the circuits run before the inspection, or a property manager gets a call about a tripped breaker that keeps coming back, the job lands on our schedule the same way any other does. We handle the full range of electrical work in Lindon, from fault finding and outlet repair to panel replacements and generator hookups. When you call, a real person answers. That person can scope the job on the phone and confirm the price before anything is scheduled.
Lindon is a town of single-family homes, newer builds, and the occasional outbuilding that was wired when the property was first developed and hasn't been touched since. The work reflects that. Some calls are straightforward. Some involve a panel that was never sized for what the house is running now. We take both.
Call (385) 452-6995 to get a quote and we'll walk through what the job involves before we set anything up.
A detached garage or workshop that was wired for a light and a single outlet is rarely enough once the space is actually being used. Running a subpanel from the main panel gives the structure its own breaker slots, proper grounding, and the capacity for tools, lighting, and dedicated circuits. We size the feeder circuit and the subpanel to match what the space needs, not just what it currently has.
A breaker that trips occasionally is harder to diagnose than one that fails consistently. Intermittent faults often involve loose connections, a circuit that's been extended beyond its original design, or an AFCI breaker responding to a wiring condition that isn't obvious at the panel. We trace the circuit, test the connections, and identify the cause before recommending any fix.
The electrical side of a generator installation covers the transfer switch, the dedicated circuit from the panel to the connection point, and the interlock or automatic transfer equipment that keeps the generator from back-feeding the utility line. We size the circuit to match the generator's output and the loads it's expected to carry. Panel capacity is assessed before any work is scheduled.
Grounding and bonding are what give a surge somewhere to go and what keep metal components in a home at the same potential. In older properties, both are sometimes incomplete or were never brought up to current standards. We check grounding at the panel and at individual circuits and correct what doesn't meet the requirements for the work being done.
A panel where half the breakers are labeled "misc" or left blank is a real problem when something goes wrong at midnight. We trace and label circuits accurately, including ones that were added after the original installation and may not follow the original layout. It's straightforward work that makes every future repair faster.
Ground-fault protection is required at kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and exterior locations. Arc-fault protection covers bedrooms and, in newer construction, most living-space circuits. Older homes often lack both in all the places current standards require. We install GFCI and AFCI outlets and breakers where they're needed and confirm they're functioning before the visit closes.
Calling in the morning. Talking it through. Knowing the options by the end of the call. That's how the scheduling process goes. The scope is confirmed on the phone, the price is confirmed on the phone, and the appointment is set based on what the job actually involves. Nothing is left vague until we're already at the property.
For jobs at rental properties or businesses that need to stay operational, we talk through timing on the call. Some work can be staged so only one circuit or one area is without power at a time. Others require a full shutdown for part of the visit. We tell you which applies before you commit to the appointment.
A panel that's buzzing and warm, an outlet that sparked and stopped working, or a partial power loss after a storm are situations that call for prompt attention. We're available every day from 6:30 AM to 10:00 PM.
Call (385) 452-6995, describe what you're seeing, and we'll tell you how to proceed and what the visit will cover.
Lindon has a mix of newer builds and older residential properties, and the wiring in both reflects when they were put up. Homes of a certain age in this part of Utah County were often built with aluminum branch-circuit wiring, which requires specific remediation at connections and devices where aluminum meets copper-rated equipment. Left unaddressed, those connections are a known failure point.
Knob-and-tube wiring turns up less frequently in this area than in older parts of the region, but it does appear in properties that haven't had electrical work done in a long time. It wasn't designed for the loads a modern household puts on a circuit, and it lacks a grounding conductor. Whether it needs to be replaced or can be left alone depends on the condition of the wiring, the load it's being asked to carry, and what else is being done to the system.
Older panels are a separate question from older wiring. A panel that was installed when the home was built may be physically intact but running out of capacity for what the house needs now. A load calculation tells us what the panel is actually carrying and whether a replacement or a subpanel is the right answer. No-pressure estimates, priced up front, so you know what the work involves before you agree to anything.
Some electrical work is straightforward to access. Some is not.
Attics in Utah County homes hold a lot of wiring, and working up there in summer or after a heavy winter requires planning around what's already in the space. Crawl spaces present their own conditions, particularly in homes where the original wiring runs through them and hasn't been looked at since the house was built. Recessed lighting installations, ceiling fan wiring in rooms with vaulted or tall ceilings, and any work that requires fishing wire through finished walls all take longer and require different tools than a simple outlet replacement.
We scope that kind of access on the call. If the job involves an attic run or a finished-wall fish, that's part of the price conversation before we schedule. It's not something that should come as a surprise once we're on the property. Anyone sizing up a job in Lindon may want to read the electrical services page first.
Adding an EV charger, a heat tape circuit, a large appliance, or a backup generator hookup to a home that's already running close to capacity isn't just a wiring question. It's a panel question. A circuit can only carry what the panel's available capacity allows, and a panel can only carry what the service entrance is rated for.
We run a load calculation before quoting any work that adds significant draw to the system. That calculation tells us whether the existing panel can take the new circuit, whether a subpanel is the right way to distribute the load, or whether the service entrance needs to be upgraded before anything else happens. Service-entrance and meter upgrades are part of this work when the supply itself is the limiting factor.
The answer depends on what's already on the system, what's being added, and what the panel was originally sized for. We work that out on the call so the quote reflects the actual job, not a best guess. Reach out and we'll start at the panel.
The price for any electrical job is based on what the work actually involves, and that means understanding the job before quoting it. A single outlet replacement is a different scope from running a new circuit to a detached garage. A panel upgrade where the service entrance also needs attention is a different scope from swapping a panel where the meter and entrance are already adequate.
What moves a quote is straightforward. The fault itself, what has to be opened up or accessed to reach it, whether the existing circuit or panel can carry the change, and whether any protection upgrades are needed along the way all affect the final number. We go through all of that on the call so the price you get reflects the real job.
The price is confirmed before anything is scheduled. If the job turns out to involve something that wasn't visible at the time of the call, we talk through the updated scope and price before any additional work continues.
Call (385) 452-6995 and ask what it covers. You get a straight answer.
We serve Lindon and the surrounding communities throughout Utah County. That includes Pleasant Grove, Vineyard, American Fork, Cedar Hills, and Orem. Whether the property is a single-family home, a rental, or a commercial building, the work is scoped the same way: on the call, priced before the visit, and done to the code that applies in this area.
If you're not sure whether your address falls within the service area, ask when you call. A straightforward choice for homeowners and property managers who want the scope and the price settled before anyone shows up.
Lindon's housing stock includes a mix of newer builds and older properties, and the calls reflect that range. Fault finding on circuits that were extended during a renovation, panel capacity questions when a new appliance or EV charger is being added, and subpanel work for garages and outbuildings are among the most common. GFCI and AFCI protection upgrades in homes that were built before current standards took effect also come up regularly.
If the same fault returns after we have worked on it, we treat it as a continuation of the original job rather than a fresh call-out charge. We want to understand why the fault came back, not just reset it again. Call us and describe what has happened.
Wiring that runs inside walls, under concrete, or through areas that cannot be opened is assessed based on what can be seen at each end and at any accessible junction points. If the wiring cannot be safely evaluated or repaired in place, we discuss the options, which may include running a new circuit through an accessible path.
Yes. We serve Lindon and the surrounding communities, including Pleasant Grove, Vineyard, American Fork, Cedar Hills, and Orem. The same process applies across the whole service area: the job is scoped on the call, the price is confirmed before the visit, and the work is done to the standards that apply in Utah County. If you're unsure whether your address is covered, ask when you call.
It can, yes. Older homes in this part of Utah County sometimes have aluminum branch-circuit wiring that requires specific attention at connections and devices. Panels in homes that haven't had electrical work done in decades may be running close to capacity or may have breakers that are no longer performing reliably. An inspection visit can tell you exactly what the system is doing and where attention is needed, and the price for that visit is confirmed before it's scheduled.
Every visit ends with the circuit tested, the panel checked, and the work confirmed before we leave. Covers go back on. Labels get updated if the panel work touched them. The space is left the way it was found.
Call Orem Electrical Company at (385) 452-6995, available every day from 6:30 AM to 10:00 PM. The scope and the price are settled on the call.

Below is a plain-language look at the electrical services we handle across Lindon and Utah County. Each row covers what the work involves, who it fits best, and one practical note worth knowing before you call. If a job spans more than one category, we scope it together on the phone so nothing gets missed.
| Service | What's Included | When You Need It | What to Keep in Mind |
|---|---|---|---|
| Well-Pump Circuits |
| Rural and semi-rural properties in Utah County that rely on a well for water supply | A well pump runs on a dedicated 240-volt circuit. Sizing it correctly for the pump's motor load is part of the installation. |
| Electrical Panel & Service Upgrades |
| Homes adding an EV charger, heat tape circuits, or major appliances that push a 100-amp panel past its limit | Older Lindon homes are often still on 100-amp service, which was sized for a fraction of the load that modern appliances, EV chargers, and heat tape circuits now demand. |
| Electrical Repairs & Troubleshooting |
| Homeowners dealing with flickering lights, dead outlets, or tripping breakers | A warm outlet or a burning smell calls for immediate attention, not a wait-and-see approach. |
Call (385) 452-6995 between 6:30 AM and 10:00 PM any day of the week and we will go through your job with you, confirm the scope, and give you a price before anything is scheduled.
