25+ years of clean, code-right work in Arvada.
Arvada runs the full range — the early-1900s bungalows and storefronts of Olde Town, mid-century neighborhoods spreading out from Ralston Road, and the newer family subdivisions filling in toward Candelas and Leyden Rock. That mix keeps a residential electrician busy in different ways: older Olde Town homes need service upgrades and careful rewiring, while growing families in newer west Arvada are finishing basements, adding hot tubs, and putting Level 2 EV chargers in three-car garages. We do all of it — permitted, inspected, and cleanly finished — and we're straightforward about what your panel can handle before you buy the hot tub. Family-owned and 25 years in, Arvada is some of our steadiest work.
Serving Olde Town Arvada, Candelas, Leyden Rock, the Ralston Road corridor, west Arvada and all of Arvada — part of our Jefferson County service area. Book your service online →

Electrical questions Arvada homeowners ask
Do you finish basements in Arvada — the electrical side?
Yes. Basement finishes are one of the most common Arvada projects we wire: new circuits, recessed lighting, egress-area outlets, and smoke/CO interconnection, all permitted and inspected. We coordinate cleanly with your GC or with you as an owner-builder, and we make sure the panel has capacity before drywall goes up.
Can you install an EV charger in my Arvada garage?
Yes — EV charger installs are booming in Arvada. We run a dedicated 240V circuit and install a Level 2 charger, Tesla or universal. Typical installed cost is quoted upfront depending on panel capacity and the run to the garage. Call (720) 340-6364 or book online for a quote.
Do older Olde Town Arvada homes need panel upgrades?
Often, yes. Olde Town-area homes frequently carry 60–100 amp services, fuse boxes, or obsolete panel brands that limit what the house can safely run. A modern 200-amp upgrade — is quoted upfront — brings the service current and makes A/C and EV charging possible. We'll assess honestly.
