Royal Electric: A Trusted Yuma Electrical Contractor for Over 40 Years

Royal Electric is a licensed, family-owned electrical contractor that has served Yuma, Arizona, and the surrounding Colorado River region for more than four decades. The company maintains a central dispatch in Yuma and operates a 24-hour emergency service model, balancing residential and commercial electrical work. This long-standing operation is built on a foundation of local knowledge and professional reliability for the community.

Key Electrical Services for Yuma Area Homes and Businesses

Royal Electric's services address the specific electrical needs of the region's built environment and climate. The company's work is organized into several key categories.

Electrical Panels, Circuits, and System Upgrades

This category includes panel replacements, new circuits, and meter upgrades. These services are critical for older homes in historic neighborhoods like the Yuma Historic North End and for supporting the increased electrical demands from modern appliances and the intense summer air conditioning use common in Yuma, Somerton, and San Luis.

Lighting Installation, Repair, and Retrofits

Services include light fixture installation, repair, and energy-efficient retrofits. This expertise applies to enhancing commercial lighting for businesses along the 16th Street corridor, updating lighting in residential areas like Donovan Estates, and installing durable outdoor lighting suited for the local climate.

Water Heater and Specialty Equipment Services

This encompasses water heater installation and repair, as well as equipment hookups and spa or hot tub wiring. The hard water common in the area can shorten water heater lifespan, making professional installation and repair essential for homes throughout the service area.
