RESIDENTIAL ELECTRICAL SERVICES

We can address any and all electrical issues in your home, from troubleshooting to whole home re-wiring and everything in between. We also offer running electrical to a detached building, electrical services for remodeling, new construction, pool or hot tub installation and are able to install additional outlets.

Is your home's electrical system held back by a faulty or outdated electrical panel? Need to upgrade your panel from a smaller panel to a larger to increase amperage? Turn to Oxbow Electric, LLC for an electrical panel upgrade. We'll inspect your system and determine the right upgrade that will suit your needs and budget.

 

We provide a wide range of residential electrical services for homeowners in the Evansville, IN area. In addition to electrical panel upgrades, we also perform:

  • We can update your existing circuit breaker panel or fuse panel based on your power needs.  Many insurance companies will no longer cover homes with fuse panels.  Circuit breaker panels have a life expectancy of 50 years as long as they are not exposed to sun, rain, or moisture.  Circuit breakers have a life expectancy of 30-40 years.  As these items age, their effectiveness drops.  Circuit breakers and panels can fail if not properly installed or maintained.  

  • If you are looking to increase the amperage of your incoming service, we can help you meet your power needs.  We can also make repairs and updates to your existing systems.  Exposure to the elements can compromise your incoming service and meter box.  Frayed insulation on service wire can lead to problems.  Older systems may not be up to current codes or amperage requirements.

  • We can diagnose and repair issues with wiring and devices in your home.

  • We are very familiar with home inspection reports and can make updates and repairs from any home inspection report.

  • If you have an older home with outdated wiring including knob and tube or BX, we can re-wire your home to today’s standards.

  • Many appliances should be on dedicated circuits.  We can add dedicated circuits for fridges, mini-splits, or other appliance.  Older kitchens may need additional circuits to efficiently run modern appliances.  We can also add circuits for above ground pools, hot tubs, tools, tankless water heaters, etc.

  • If you need a power feed to your new outbuilding or would like to have a separate electric service to your outbuilding, we can help.

  • We can perform a visual electrical inspection on your home inspecting incoming service, panel, devices, smoke alarms, CO monitors and code compliance.  We will provide information on the current electrical condition of your home and recommended improvements.

  • If you are installing a swimming pool, swim spa or hot tub, we can install the necessary electrical systems for the specifications of your equipment.  We can also service the existing disconnects, panels, wiring and breakers for your existing pools, swim spas and hot tubs.

  • From bathroom remodels, kitchen remodels to whole home remodels, we can address all of your electrical needs.

  • We can wire your custom home to your specifications.  We will work with you throughout the process to ensure your electrical needs and wants are met.

  • We can install all types of bath and exhaust fans including fan/light combos and range hoods.

  • From Ring doorbells, smart switches, security cameras and everything in between was can get your smart home up and running.

  • Motion lights, flood lights, coach lights and more!

  • We install all types of interior lights including can lights, wafer lights, ceiling fans, pendants, sconces and specialty lights.  We have equipment and training to hang large specialty fixtures and install light fixtures on tall ceilings. We ensure your fixtures are wired up properly and installed on approved boxes.

  • If you need additional outlets/switches or just an upgrade, we can install.  From GFCIs to dimmers we do it all.

  • Every home should have smoke detectors.  Current code requires smoke detectors throughout the home and CO Monitors if you have gas appliances in your home.  We can install code complaint smoke detectors and CO Monitors.

 

How can you tell your home needs to be rewired?

 

Any part of your electrical system can be extremely dangerous to handle without experience. If you're not sure whether you need home wiring repairs or replacements, pay close attention to these telltale signs:

  • Frequent blown fuses or tripped breakers

  • Buzzing or sizzling sounds

  • Dimming or flickering lights

  • Burning smells near outlets

You should also never see arcs or sparks coming out of an outlet. If you've been shocked trying to plug something in, odds are your home's wiring needs to be inspected by a professional. Contact us today to speak with a local electrician about your situation.
