Electrician in Spring Branch
Panel upgrades, rewiring and repairs for Spring Branch homes, from original ranch houses to new builds.
Electrical work in Spring Branch
Spring Branch grew fast in the 1950s and 1960s, and many of its ranch homes still have the electrical system they were built with: 100-amp service, few circuits and outlets without a ground. Those systems were designed for a home with one television and no central air.
The neighborhood is also being rebuilt, with new homes and townhomes going up next to the originals. We work on both: bringing older homes up to today's demands, and adding EV chargers, surge protection and extra circuits to newer ones.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. We work throughout Spring Branch and the neighboring areas. Call (713) 955-5350 to confirm your address.
My Spring Branch home was built in the 1950s. Does it need rewiring?
Not necessarily. Age alone does not decide it; the type and the condition of the wiring do. An inspection tells you what you have and what, if anything, needs to be replaced.
Who issues electrical permits in Spring Branch?
Most of Spring Branch is inside the City of Houston, which issues the permit. Nearby villages such as Spring Valley Village and Hilshire Village are separate cities with their own permit offices.
