Business Background
Marc Johnson, a former union electrician from locals 46 and 191, founded Camano Island Electric in 1996 to serve the Camano Island and Stanwood communities. With decades of hands-on experience, Marc brings a practical, problem-solving approach to every job, whether it's a routine service call or a complex remodel. He understands the unique electrical needs of local homes, from updating historic knob-and-tube wiring to installing modern systems for hot tubs, pools, and generators. When not on the job, you might find Marc enjoying the Pacific Northwest lifestyle—gardening or heading to the mountains with family and friends, sometimes in his Thiokol Spryte DMC 1200. His commitment is to reliable service and honest work; if a project is outside his scope, he'll connect you with a trusted local professional who can help.
Q&A
What should I expect during an electrical inspection for my Stanwood home?
Our inspections are thorough and focused on safety. We'll check your home's wiring, panels, and outlets, looking for outdated systems like knob-and-tube, assessing grounding, and identifying any potential hazards. For Stanwood homeowners, we pay special attention to issues common in our area, such as older wiring that might not handle modern appliance loads or systems affected by local soil conditions for wells and septic. You'll receive a clear, written report explaining our findings and any recommended next steps.
My smart home devices keep malfunctioning after power surges in Stanwood. Can you help?
Absolutely. Power surges are a common issue that can damage sensitive electronics like smart thermostats, security systems, and appliances. We start by diagnosing the source of the surge—it could be from the utility grid, your home's own wiring, or major appliances. We then provide solutions tailored to your home, which may include installing or upgrading whole-house surge protection at your main panel and ensuring proper grounding. This helps safeguard your investment in smart home technology and prevents future damage.
You mentioned referrals. What types of electrical work do you handle directly versus refer out?
We directly handle the core services listed, including residential remodels, service changes, troubleshooting, hot tubs, pools, generators, and new construction wiring. Our expertise is in making your existing home safer and more functional. We may refer out highly specialized, large-scale commercial projects or specific utility-side work that requires different licensing. Our promise is to always be upfront and connect you with a qualified, local professional we trust to complete the job right.
