about services
Installing Whole House Surge Protectors
Guilford County sees its share of severe spring and summer thunderstorms, and lightning strikes and grid switching are the most common ways a power surge reaches your home’s wiring. A single surge can take out a refrigerator, HVAC control board, or the electronics behind a home security system in an instant — and homeowners in Summerfield and other areas served by rural power lines tend to see more voltage fluctuation than homes closer to the substation. A whole-house surge protector installed at your panel catches that excess voltage before it reaches your outlets, protecting everything plugged in at once instead of relying on individual power strips room by room.

Why Choose Us
The Obvious Choice For Whole House Surge Protectors
We typically pair a whole-house surge protector with a panel inspection, since the two go hand in hand — an aging panel is more vulnerable to surge damage, and a surge protector installed on a panel that can’t handle it isn’t doing its job. Our electricians check your panel’s condition and grounding before installing the surge protector, not just the device itself, so you’re not left with a false sense of security. It’s a straightforward install for our team, but one we take seriously — a bad ground or a skipped step is the difference between a surge protector that works and one that doesn’t. Our electricians are licensed, bonded, and insured.
