When something goes wrong with the power in your home or business, the first question is usually the same: who do I call, and how soon can they get here. We handle the full range of residential and commercial electrical work throughout St. George and East Baton Rouge Parish, from a dead outlet or tripping breaker to a panel upgrade, generator hookup, or full rewire. We are open every day from 8:00 AM to 8:30 PM.

St. George is a city with a substantial housing stock, a mix of established neighborhoods and newer builds, and plenty of commercial and rental property. That mix produces a wide range of electrical calls. Older homes run into wiring that has been modified over the years, panels that have reached their limit, and protection devices that were never installed. Newer construction brings its own demands: dedicated circuits for large appliances, EV charger installations, and panel capacity questions when a homeowner adds equipment. We handle both ends of that range, and everything in between.
The price on an electrical job depends on what the job actually involves, and that is not always clear until someone looks at it. A tripping breaker might be an overloaded circuit, a failing breaker, or a fault somewhere downstream in the wiring. Each of those has a different scope and a different cost. We scope the job on the call as far as we can, and the price is confirmed before anything is scheduled.
What moves a quote is straightforward. The fault itself matters. What has to be opened up to reach it matters. Whether the existing panel has the capacity to carry a new circuit or a heavier load matters. A panel that needs to be upgraded before a new circuit can be added is a different job from one where the capacity is already there.
Call (225) 592-3659 and describe what you are dealing with.
We go through the job with you, ask the questions that help us scope it accurately, and give you a rate before anything is booked. That applies whether the call is about a single outlet or a full service upgrade. You are not agreeing to anything until the price is confirmed and you say go ahead.
Pricing is explained up front, and what it covers is part of that conversation. If the diagnostic turns up something beyond the original scope, we explain it and give you a price before we proceed.
Electrical work like this comes up more than people expect, and not all of it can wait for a convenient slot next week. When a fault is causing a safety concern or leaving part of the property without power, we work with you on timing. Describe the situation when you call and we will tell you what the schedule allows.
For tenants and businesses that need to stay operational, we plan around the constraint. A commercial space that cannot shut down a section of the building during business hours needs the work planned differently from a vacant unit. We discuss that on the call, confirm what the visit covers, and make sure the approach fits the situation.
Appointments are confirmed before the visit. You get a clear picture of what is happening and when before anyone shows up, and clear communication from the first call to the final test is how every job runs.
Commercial and light industrial premises in St. George have a different set of demands. A retail space, a restaurant, a warehouse, or a multi-tenant building cannot always take a full shutdown to get electrical work done. Out-of-hours scheduling, phased work that keeps part of the site live, and planning that accounts for what the business actually needs to stay open are all part of how we approach commercial calls.
The job planning is different too. A commercial panel handles a heavier and more varied load than a residential one. Circuits for commercial kitchen equipment, lighting across a larger footprint, dedicated circuits for HVAC supply, and the service entrance capacity to support all of it require a more detailed scope before the work starts. We do that assessment on the call and confirm the approach before anything is scheduled.
Good electrical work is not complicated, it is just done right, and on a commercial site that means planning the job so the business is disrupted as little as possible. We show up ready to work.
Renovations, additions, and build-outs involve multiple trades, and the order matters more than most people realize until it goes wrong. Rough-in wiring has to happen before the drywall goes up. Panel capacity has to be confirmed before a kitchen remodel adds three new circuits. A new addition needs its circuit plan settled before the framing is done, because moving wire through finished walls costs more time and money than running it during the build.
When the electrician is brought in late, the work that should have taken a day in open walls takes three days in finished ones. We scope the electrical side early, confirm what the panel can carry, and coordinate the timing so the rough-in happens when the walls are still accessible. That is the part that saves a renovation from a costly detour.
If you are planning a renovation or addition in St. George and need the electrical scoped before the other trades start, call early. The conversation on the front end is shorter than the one explaining why the timeline slipped.
The situation that leads to this call is usually a renovation, a room that feels dark, or a homeowner who wants to replace older fixtures with something more efficient. Recessed lighting requires a circuit that can carry the load across all the cans in the run, and in older homes that sometimes means adding a circuit rather than extending an existing one. LED retrofits are simpler but still involve confirming that the dimmer switch, if there is one, is compatible with the new fixtures. We handle the circuit work, the fixture installation, and the switch where needed.
A new range, a dryer, a dishwasher, or a hot tub each requires a dedicated circuit sized for what it draws. The panel has to have the capacity to add it, and the circuit has to be run to the right location with the right breaker and the right wire gauge. Hot tub wiring adds a bonding requirement on top of the circuit itself. We confirm the panel load first, then run the circuit and make the connection. Reach out and we will get it diagnosed.
Three-way switches are the source of a lot of confusion, because a wiring error anywhere in the run affects both switches and the symptom is not always obvious. A light that only works from one end of the hall, a switch that does nothing, or a configuration that was wired incorrectly by a previous owner are all common calls. We trace the circuit, identify where the problem is, and correct it so both switches work the way they should.
A welder or air compressor draws a significant load, and running one on a shared circuit causes problems quickly. The circuit trips, the voltage drops across the shop, and the equipment does not perform the way it should. A dedicated circuit sized for the equipment fixes all of that. We confirm the panel has the capacity, run the circuit to the right location, and install the outlet rated for the load. Panel upgraded. Circuits balanced. Home powered safely.
Ceiling fan installation is straightforward when the box in the ceiling is already rated for a fan and a switch leg exists. When it is not, the job involves replacing the box, sometimes running a new circuit, and in some cases adding a switch where one does not exist. We handle all of it. The wiring done properly, start to finish, is the standard every fan installation is held to.
We cover St. George and the surrounding communities throughout East Baton Rouge Parish. In addition to St. George, we serve Prairieville, Gardere, Baton Rouge, Denham Springs, and Monticello. If you are in any of these areas and need electrical work scoped, the process is the same: call, describe the job, get a price before anything starts.
Electrical work here gets handled by people who answer to this community. The call reaches someone who knows the trade and can scope the job on the phone, and the work is done to the standards the local code inspectors here enforce. Coverage across the parish means the same process and the same standard of work regardless of which part of the area you are in. The parts people usually ask about are covered on the electrical services page.
Sometimes. If the panel has available breaker slots and the load calculation shows the service has the capacity to carry an additional circuit, we can add the circuit without touching the panel. If the panel is full or the service is already near capacity, the panel has to be addressed first. We check both on the call and tell you what applies at your property.
Not always. For smaller repairs or work confined to one area, the rest of the business can often continue operating. For panel work or anything that requires a full shutdown of the service, we discuss the timing with you in advance and plan the work to minimize the impact on operations. After-hours scheduling is something to raise on the call.
We cover St. George and the surrounding communities throughout East Baton Rouge Parish, including Prairieville, Gardere, Baton Rouge, Denham Springs, and Monticello. The process is the same wherever the job is: call, describe the work, and get a price before anything is scheduled. Coverage and any applicable travel details are confirmed when you call.
The work area is cleaned up before we leave. Debris from the job, packaging, and any materials that came out of the wall or panel are removed. We treat the property the way we would want ours treated.
Yes. Extending a circuit to a new outlet location, a new fixture, or a new switch position is a standard part of what we do. The approach depends on what is in the wall and how the circuit is currently run. We scope it on the call and give you a price before the visit is scheduled.
In a city with a mix of older and newer housing, the most common calls involve panels that have reached capacity, wiring that has been modified over the years without documentation, and requests for dedicated circuits as homeowners add appliances or equipment. Surge protection and generator hookups are also frequent given the storm season this region sees. Whatever the situation, we scope it on the call and explain what the job involves before anything is booked.
Yes. High-draw equipment like a welder or an air compressor pulls more current than a standard outlet is rated for, and running that equipment on a shared circuit causes nuisance tripping and can damage the equipment or the wiring. A dedicated circuit sized for the equipment's rated draw is the correct installation.
A small job is worth a call just as much as a panel upgrade or a rewire. A single outlet that stopped working, a switch that buzzes, a ceiling fan that needs a box replacement before it can be hung. These are the calls we handle, and they get the same attention as the larger jobs. We handle electrical work throughout St. George and East Baton Rouge Parish, and we are open daily from 8:00 AM to 8:30 PM.
