Electrical Services Houston TX | Call R.E Electric

Many older Houston homes have electrical panels that can't handle modern appliance loads or provide adequate surge protection. Our panel installation and upgrade services include installing advanced surge protection devices at the main panel. This acts as a first line of defense, diverting dangerous voltage spikes from storms or grid fluctuations away from your sensitive electronics and major appliances, preventing costly damage that's common in our area.

Yes, an overheating meter is a serious safety concern common in Houston due to high demand and aging connections. It often indicates faulty wiring, loose lugs, or an overloaded system that can lead to fires. R.E Electric's thorough electrical inspection will identify the root cause. We then perform the necessary repairs, which may include meter base repair, main service wire replacement, or a panel upgrade to ensure safe, efficient operation and prevent hazardous overheating.

Absolutely. While a generator provides backup power, a professional installation by R.E Electric includes critical transfer switch and panel work that isolates your home from the unstable grid during an outage. This isolation itself prevents 'back-feeding' surges when power is restored. Furthermore, we integrate whole-house surge protection into the installation, creating a comprehensive shield for your home's electrical system against the surges prevalent in Houston's stormy weather.
