Electrical work in Austin homes

Austin's mid-century neighborhoods often have 60–100A services, ungrounded 2-wire circuits, cloth-insulated wiring and fuse boxes or early breaker panels. Modern loads (EVs, heat pumps, induction cooking) usually mean a service upgrade. We work through Austin's Development Services permitting and Austin Energy's service requirements every week.

Austin electrician FAQ

My 1950s Austin home has a 100-amp service. Can I add an EV charger?

Sometimes, with a load-management device and a lower charging rate. Many homes this age are better served by a 200A service upgrade, which also addresses ungrounded circuits and outdated protection. We'll run the numbers with you.

Do you work with Austin Energy on service upgrades?

Yes. We submit the service request, coordinate the disconnect and reconnect, and schedule the City of Austin inspection.
