01
Electrical Repair and Troubleshooting
Breaker keeps tripping or half the house went dark?
Electrical repair in Gillette, WY starts with finding the actual fault instead of guessing at it. I trace dead circuits, nuisance breaker trips, flickering lights, hot outlets, failed GFCIs and aluminum wiring connections back to the source, then quote the fix in writing before I touch it.
What that usually includes
Circuit tracing and load testing
Outlet, switch, GFCI and AFCI replacement
Breaker and bus bar diagnosis
Burning smell, arcing and hot device investigation
Thermal imaging on request (Level 1 Certified Thermographer)
Electrical Panel Upgrades and Service Entrance Work
Aging panel tripping breakers, or can't handle a new addition?
A panel upgrade in Gillette, WY is usually the fix when a 100 amp service can no longer carry a shop, a hot tub, an addition or a second heat source. I replace obsolete and recalled panels, upsize the service entrance, re-bond and re-ground the system to current code and label every circuit so the next person who opens that door knows what they are looking at.
Wyoming winter takes the power out for two days. Then what?
Generator installation in Campbell County is not a luxury item. A ground blizzard or a summer thunderstorm can drop a rural line for a day or more, and a house on a well loses heat and water at the same time. I size, install and wire whole-home standby generators and portable generator inlets with a proper transfer switch so nothing backfeeds onto the utility line.
What that usually includes
Whole-home standby generator installation
Portable generator inlet and interlock kits
Automatic and manual transfer switches
Load calculation and critical circuit selection
Gas and propane coordination with your fuel supplier
Bought an EV and the included cord takes all night?
EV charger installation in Gillette, WY comes down to two questions: does the panel have the capacity, and where does the car actually park. I run a load calculation before quoting so you are not paying for a charger the service cannot feed, then install the circuit, the disconnect and the charger to NEC Article 625, including cold-rated exterior work for garages and carports.
Need an electrical sub who shows up on schedule and passes inspection?
I take on new construction electrical for builders and general contractors across Campbell County and the surrounding counties. Because I hold the Wyoming Master license, permits get pulled and work gets signed off without waiting on an outside master of record, which keeps your inspection date instead of pushing it.
Property Management Maintenance and Emergency Call-Out
Tenant calls at 6pm with no power to half the unit?
Property managers in Gillette and Wright need one electrician who knows the buildings and answers the phone. I handle turnover repairs, common area lighting, exterior and parking lot lighting, smoke and CO device replacement and after-hours call-out, with itemized invoices you can pass straight through to an owner statement.
LED retrofits are the fastest payback on most commercial buildings and shops in Gillette. I convert fluorescent troffers and high bay fixtures, add controls and occupancy sensing where it makes sense and design residential lighting layouts that do not leave you with dark corners and glare.
Taking over a space that was wired for a completely different business?
Tenant improvement work means reworking what the last occupant left behind. I re-feed panels, relocate circuits, add dedicated equipment circuits and bring the space up to current code for your occupancy, coordinated around your opening date rather than mine.
Buying a house and want to know what is behind the panel cover?
A general home inspector opens the panel and looks. An electrical inspection goes further: I check grounding and bonding, breaker and conductor sizing, panel brand and recall history, GFCI and AFCI protection, and the condition of devices and terminations, then give you a written report you can take to a negotiation.
Do not see your job listed? Most electrical work falls somewhere in the list above even when it does
not sound like it. Call 307-399-9317 and describe it, and if it is not something I do, I will tell you who
in Gillette does.
