Question Answers
My outdoor lights keep shorting after heavy Bellingham rains. Can you help?
Absolutely. Persistent moisture from our coastal climate is a common issue here, often leading to damaged fixtures, corroded connections, or compromised outdoor wiring. As local electricians, we diagnose the specific failure point—whether it's a fixture not rated for wet locations, a faulty seal, or underground wire damage. We then repair or replace components with materials designed for the Pacific Northwest's damp conditions, ensuring your outdoor lighting and electrical systems are protected against future weather damage.
Do you install electric vehicle chargers for homes in Bellingham?
Yes, we are experienced in residential EV charger installation throughout Whatcom County. We assess your home's electrical panel capacity to ensure it can support the new load safely. Our installation includes running the proper conduit and wiring from your panel to the charger location, typically in a garage or driveway. We handle all necessary permits and ensure the installation meets current electrical codes, providing you with a reliable and efficient way to power your vehicle at home.
I need a new circuit for a hot tub. What does that process involve?
Installing a dedicated circuit for a hot tub is a specialized task we handle regularly. The process starts with evaluating your main electrical panel to ensure it has the capacity for the new 240-volt circuit. We then run weatherproof conduit and the appropriate gauge wiring from the panel to the hot tub's location, installing a GFCI-protected disconnect within sight of the spa as required by code. Our focus is on creating a safe, durable, and code-compliant installation so you can enjoy your hot tub with peace of mind.
About the Local Business
Founded in 2021 by two IBEW union Inside Wiremen, Old Town Electric was born from a simple, community-focused idea: no electrical project is too small for Bellingham homeowners. We noticed a gap where many contractors bypassed minor jobs, leaving residents to either struggle to find help or attempt DIY fixes that could lead to unsafe conditions. We stepped in to serve this need, believing that reliable, accessible electrical service makes our entire community safer and stronger. While we happily handle everything from a single switch installation to a full panel upgrade, our expertise extends to residential and commercial remodels, new construction, and specialized custom work. We place a strong emphasis on expert troubleshooting and install key home systems like EV chargers, backup generators, and the infrastructure for hot tubs and outdoor HVAC units, ensuring your electrical systems are built to last.
