FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Do you have to cut large holes in drywall to rewire a room?+
We use special flexible tools to fish wire through walls with minimal small openings, keeping drywall repairs quick and easy.
Can I keep my existing electrical panel when remodeling my kitchen?+
If your panel has available space and enough power capacity, yes. If it is full or under 200 amps, we will let you know if an upgrade is needed.
Do you coordinate with my general contractor or kitchen designer?+
Yes. We work smoothly with your contractor to rough in wiring right after framing and return for final fixture installation before move-in.
Are GFCI outlets required in kitchens and bathrooms?+
Yes. Oregon electrical code requires GFCI safety protection near all water sources to protect you from electrical shocks.
