Managing rental properties means electrical problems show up at the worst times. A tenant calls about a dead outlet on a Saturday evening, a breaker keeps tripping in a unit that was fine last month, or a property inspection turns up wiring that needs attention before the next lease starts. Landlords and property managers in Franklin need an electrician who answers the phone, explains the scope clearly, and gets the work done without dragging the job out over multiple visits.
That is what we do. We handle residential and commercial electrical work throughout Franklin and Simpson County, and we are available every day from 5:30 AM to 8:00 PM. Whether you manage one rental or several, or own a home that needs electrical attention, the call gets answered and the job gets scoped before anything is scheduled.
A standard outlet cannot carry the load a range, wall oven, or dryer requires. These appliances need a dedicated 240-volt circuit sized for the draw they put on the panel. When a dryer is not heating properly or a new range will not run at full power, the circuit is often the starting point. We run the circuit, install the correct outlet, and confirm the panel has the capacity to support it before the job begins.
A Level 2 home charger needs its own dedicated 240-volt circuit, and the panel has to have room for it. Before installation, we check the available capacity and confirm whether the existing service can carry the additional load. If a panel upgrade is part of what the property needs, that gets discussed on the call so the full scope is clear before any work is scheduled.
Older homes in a town like Franklin often still carry knob-and-tube wiring in parts of the house, sometimes in attics, sometimes in walls that were never touched during a renovation. That wiring was not designed for the loads modern households put on it, and it lacks a ground conductor. Replacement involves pulling new wiring through the affected areas, connecting it to a grounded panel, and confirming that the circuits meet current code. It is not always a whole-house job. We assess what is there and scope the replacement to what actually needs to come out.
A panel that is full, aging, or undersized for the property's load creates problems that show up gradually. Breakers that trip without being overloaded, slots that are double-tapped, or a service entrance that cannot carry what the home demands are all signs the panel needs attention. Replacement involves a load calculation, a new panel sized for the property, correct breaker ratings throughout, and full circuit labeling. Subpanel installation is also available where a detached structure needs its own feed.
A panel job is also the right time to look at surge protection. A panel-level surge protective device intercepts voltage spikes at the service entrance, before they reach any circuit in the building. In a region where severe thunderstorms and the occasional ice storm are part of the seasonal pattern, that is a practical addition to any panel replacement or service upgrade.
Don't let a small wiring issue turn into a fire risk, because the gap between a nuisance and a hazard is narrower than it looks. An outlet that has never worked since the previous tenant moved in, a switch that sparks when it is flipped, an exterior light that has been on the to-do list for two years. These jobs feel small enough to defer, but each one points to something that is either already wrong or getting worse.
An outlet that has never worked may have a loose connection, a failed GFCI upstream, or a wiring fault that a new tenant will eventually notice at the worst moment. A sparking switch means the contacts are failing and the wiring behind it is being stressed every time it is used. An outdoor fixture that has been out of service often means a weatherproof box that has seen water or a circuit with a fault nobody has traced.
None of these take long to address when they are the only thing on the job. They do take longer when they have been sitting. Call and we'll get the current flowing right.
Panel replacement and service-entrance work require the main service to be de-energized for part of the job. That is not negotiable on those jobs, and we are direct about it. For a homeowner, the timing can usually be arranged around a morning or an afternoon. For a business or a property with a tenant who works from home, we confirm the scope of the outage on the call and plan the visit around what the property can accommodate.
Most outlet, switch, and fixture work only requires the affected circuit to be shut off at the breaker. The rest of the property stays live. If a dedicated circuit is being added for a new appliance or an EV charger, the panel is opened and the new breaker is installed, but the existing circuits stay on unless the load calculation turns up a reason to address something else.
We confirm what will need to be de-energized when the job is scoped. Clear communication from the first call to the final test is how jobs stay on track, especially when a tenant or a business has to keep operating.
You shouldn't have to chase an electrician for answers, and scheduling a visit should not take multiple calls to arrange. When you reach us, we ask about the property, what you are seeing, and what access looks like. The scope gets settled on that call. If the job is urgent, we work with what the schedule allows. If a tenant has to be present or a business has to stay open, that gets factored in before the visit is confirmed.
The work is local, which means it is easy to check. We are available every day from 5:30 AM to 8:00 PM, which covers early-morning calls before the workday, evening calls after business hours, and weekend jobs that would otherwise wait until Monday. We take short-notice work, and if a problem cannot wait, call and describe what you are seeing so we can work out how quickly to get someone out.
Electrical service scheduled without the runaround is how this should work. Call now and we'll set the appointment.
The price is confirmed before anything is scheduled. When you call, we ask about the job, scope what the visit will involve, and give you the rate on the phone. You know what the service call covers and what it costs before anyone shows up.
What moves a quote is the actual condition of the job. What the fault turns out to be, what has to be opened up to reach it, and whether the existing circuit or panel can carry what is being added are the things that change the scope. If the job turns out to involve more than what was described on the call, that gets discussed before the work expands.
Ask what it covers and you get a straight answer. No pressure and no gimmicks, just safe, solid wiring. It is worth a look at the page listing our electrical services before you call.

We test every circuit. We label every breaker. We leave it safe.
Older homes in the area commonly turn up knob-and-tube wiring that was never replaced during renovations, panels that are full or undersized for current loads, and outlets that lack grounding or GFCI protection where it is now required. None of those are unusual, and each has a clear path to being addressed. We assess what is present and explain the options before any work begins.
Yes. Most outlet, switch, and fixture work only requires the affected circuit to be shut off, so the rest of the unit stays live. For jobs that need a larger shutdown, we confirm the scope on the call and plan the visit around what the property can accommodate. If a tenant has to be present or needs to keep using part of the space, that gets factored into the scheduling before anyone shows up.
A workshop or outbuilding typically needs a subpanel fed from the main panel, with circuits sized for the equipment being run. Power tools, compressors, and welders often require 240-volt dedicated circuits. We size the subpanel and the feed cable based on the total load the space needs to support.
Clear access to the panel speeds up the visit, particularly for diagnostic and panel work. If the panel is behind stored items, clearing the area beforehand means the work can begin without spending part of the visit moving things out of the way.
We check the meter, the main breaker, and the service entrance conductors to determine where the problem originates. If the fault is on the utility side of the meter, we let you know and explain what the utility company needs to do. If it is inside the property, we proceed with the repair.
