St. Paul Electrician & Contractor | Houghton and Holm Made | Remodeling & Electrical Repair

Our thorough electrical inspections specifically check for damage caused by Minnesota's freeze-thaw cycles, like cracked insulation on wires in attics or crawl spaces, which is a common fire hazard. We also test grounding systems, which are crucial for safety but can degrade over time in our soil conditions. Identifying and fixing these issues proactively protects your home and family, especially before the heavy electrical use of the holiday and heating seasons.

Many older St. Paul homes have electrical panels that can't safely handle the load of a modern kitchen remodel or added bathroom. Combined with aging wires susceptible to cold-weather cracking, an outdated panel is a significant risk. Our panel installations provide a robust, code-compliant foundation for your renovation, ensuring your new appliances and lighting have dedicated, safe circuits. This upgrade is essential for both the functionality of your new space and the long-term safety of your entire home.

Beyond new lighting and GFCI outlets, we focus on upgrades that address local concerns. This includes ensuring all new wiring in exterior walls has proper insulation against the cold, installing dedicated circuits for high-draw items like heated floors to prevent overloading, and verifying the bathroom's grounding is flawless—especially important in a wet environment. Our integrated approach as both electricians and contractors means these critical safety details are seamlessly built into your remodel from the start.
