When a property changes hands, gets rented to a new tenant, or goes through an insurance review, a documented electrical history matters. Permits pulled and closed, circuits added with the right load calculations behind them, panels replaced and inspected: all of it becomes part of the record a buyer's inspector or an insurer will look for. Work that is permitted, inspected, and closed out properly is what keeps that record clean.
We handle electrical repairs, panel upgrades, circuit installation, wiring, lighting, and more for homes and rental properties across Sandy. When you call, a real person answers. The person who answers the phone can tell you what the visit involves.
Call (385) 452-6995 for a quote.
The price depends on what the job turns out to be. A diagnostic visit that finds a tripped GFCI protecting a linked circuit is a different scope than one that traces a fault back to a failing breaker or a wiring condition inside the wall. What you pay reflects what the work actually involves, not a flat figure set before anyone has seen the situation.
Three things move a quote more than anything else. The first is what the fault turns out to be once it is traced. The second is what has to be opened up to reach it, whether that is a single outlet box or a run of conduit through a finished wall. The third is whether the existing circuit or panel can carry the change being requested, or whether a load calculation shows that a service upgrade needs to happen first.
No-pressure estimates, priced up front. You get the scope on the call before anything is scheduled, and the price is confirmed before anyone comes out.
Call (385) 452-6995 and ask what the job involves.
Property owners and managers in Sandy book the same way anyone else does: a call to (385) 452-6995, a conversation about what the work involves, and a price confirmed before the visit is scheduled.
The invoice goes to whoever the work is being billed to, which is often the owner rather than the tenant. We confirm that on the call.
When a tenant is in the unit, access gets worked out before the visit. That means a confirmed time that works for whoever is on site, and a clear picture of what the visit covers. We scope the job on the call and carry that through to the visit.
A rental property that has had electrical work done without documentation is a liability the next time the unit turns over or a claim gets filed. We handle the work to code, and a landlord who needs a record of what was done and what was changed has a clear answer to give an inspector or an insurer. That is worth factoring in when deciding whether to call about a repair that seems minor.
Not every electrical fault is on the customer's side of the meter. A partial power loss that leaves one leg of the service dead, a voltage fluctuation that affects the whole house rather than a single circuit, or a service entrance that is physically damaged after a storm can all point to the utility rather than to anything in the panel or the wiring.
We work out which side of the meter a problem sits on by checking the panel, the service entrance, and the branch circuits. If the evidence points to the utility's equipment, we tell you what we found and what to report to them. That is not a dead end. It is the information you need to get the right people involved.
If the fault is on the utility's side, the next step is a call to the utility with a clear description of what was found. We can tell you what to say and what to ask for. If the fault is on our side, the repair is scoped and priced on the same call. Either way, you leave the diagnostic with a clear picture of what is going on. More of the detail sits on our services page.
A welder or an air compressor draws a load that a standard household circuit cannot support. Running a dedicated circuit for workshop equipment means sizing the breaker and the wire gauge to the draw of the specific tool, not to a generic figure. We confirm the load requirements on the call and run the circuit from the panel to the location where the equipment will sit.
A 100-amp service was standard for decades, but it was sized for a much lighter load than most properties now draw. When a panel is full, when breakers are doubled up, or when a new circuit pushes the service past what the existing equipment can handle, a service upgrade is the right starting point. We run a load calculation, assess the service entrance, and size the replacement to what the property actually draws.
Smart switch and dimmer installation is straightforward work when the wiring behind the box is correct. Older wiring that lacks a neutral conductor at the switch location changes the scope, and we confirm what is there before quoting. Panel-mounted surge protection intercepts voltage spikes at the service entrance before they reach any device in the property. That matters in a region where winter storms and ice events push surges through the line without warning.
Recessed and LED can light installation requires correctly rated junction boxes and clean wiring runs sized for the fixture load. Swapping incandescent fixtures for LED retrofits is often simpler than a full recessed installation, but both need the circuit checked before the work starts. Exterior lighting, including security lights and motion sensor fixtures, adds weatherproofing and GFCI requirements to the same basic scope.
A breaker that trips under normal load, fails to reset, or feels warm at the panel face is a condition worth investigating rather than resetting and ignoring. Sometimes the breaker itself has failed and needs replacement. Sometimes the condition it is responding to is in the circuit. We trace the fault before recommending a fix, so the repair addresses the actual problem.
We are available every day from 6:30 AM to 10:00 PM. Scheduling works the same way for every job: a call, a conversation about what the work involves, and a confirmed time before anything is booked. For problems that will not keep, we take short-notice calls and ask what the schedule allows.
Call (385) 452-6995 and describe what you are seeing.
A rental unit with a tenant in place or a business that needs to stay open during a repair has specific scheduling requirements. We work around them. The scope is confirmed on the call, the access arrangement is worked out before the visit, and the work is done in a way that minimizes disruption to whoever is on site. That applies to a single-outlet repair as much as to a panel replacement.
We cover Sandy and the surrounding area throughout Salt Lake County. That includes White City, Granite, Cottonwood Heights, Midvale, and Draper. If your property is in the area and you are not sure whether it falls within the service range, ask on the call.
The work is carried out locally. Whether the property is a single-family home, a rental unit, or a commercial building, the scope is confirmed before the visit and the work is done to the code that applies here.
Yes, and combining them is often the more efficient approach. When you call, describe everything you want addressed and we will scope the full list together so the visit covers all of it. Grouping work reduces the number of times power needs to be interrupted.
Whether a permit is required depends on the scope of the work and where the property sits within Salt Lake County. We confirm what applies at your address before the visit is scheduled. If a permit is needed, we walk through what that involves on the call.
It depends on what the panel is currently carrying. A load calculation tells us whether the existing service has the capacity to add a 240-volt dedicated circuit for a Level 2 charger without overloading the panel. If there is room, we run the circuit and install the outlet or hardwired connection. If there is not, a service upgrade is the starting point, and we scope both on the same call.
A burning smell near an outlet is treated as an urgent situation, not something to monitor. It can indicate arcing, a failing connection, or insulation that has already been exposed to heat. Call as soon as you notice it rather than waiting to see whether it continues.
A subpanel is a practical option when the main panel is at capacity but the service entrance can still carry the total load. We run a load calculation to confirm that before quoting either approach. If the service itself is undersized, a subpanel alone does not solve the problem.
An electric range requires a dedicated 240-volt circuit sized for the range's amperage rating, typically 40 or 50 amps. We run the circuit from the panel, install the correct outlet, and confirm the breaker is matched to the load. If the panel does not have capacity, that gets addressed as part of the same scope.
If we find that earlier work presents a risk, we stop and explain what we found before doing anything else. You get a clear account of what the problem is and what correcting it involves. No additional work proceeds until you understand the situation and agree on the scope.
Buyers' inspectors look closely at the panel, the grounding and bonding, GFCI and AFCI protection, and any aluminum branch-circuit wiring. An electrical inspection before listing gives a seller a clear picture of what is there and what, if anything, needs attention before it shows up on an inspection report. We scope that visit on the call and confirm the price before scheduling.
A small repair is not a job to put off because it seems minor. A dead outlet, a switch that stopped working, or a single breaker that trips under light load can each point to something worth finding before it becomes a larger problem. Call in the morning. Talk it through. Know the options by the end of the call.
We handle everything from a single outlet replacement to a full service upgrade. We are available every day from 6:30 AM to 10:00 PM.
Call (385) 452-6995 and we will walk through the job with you before anything is scheduled.
We take electrical work in these nearby communities as well: Cottonwood Heights, Midvale, Draper. There is more on our service map.
Below is a plain-language look at the electrical services we handle across Sandy and Salt Lake 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Outlet & Switch Installation |
| Homeowners upgrading protection in kitchens, baths, garages, and outdoor locations | GFCI protection is a code requirement in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and all exterior locations, not just a nice-to-have. |
| 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 Sandy 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.
