Electrical systems are intricate and require a professional hand to safely perform repairs, maintenance, or upgrades. At Loveland Home Solutions, our team of experienced electricians upgrades wiring and circuitry, installs interior and landscape lighting, and does many other necessary electrical services. If you own a business, your property may benefit from working with a licensed electrician. Here are some services we offer:

1. Wiring and Circuit Maintenance

Wiring stretches throughout buildings to provide electrical power to different appliances, lighting, and technological devices. The wiring and connections create circuits to safely supply the necessary power. The circuit breaker, or breaker box, protects against overload by shutting down the flow of electricity when it senses too much current. Regular maintenance checks of wiring and circuit breakers reveal problem areas within the circuits and allow our team to fix issues quickly.

Signs like flickering lights and a circuit breaker that keeps tripping indicate problems with wiring and circuits. Our electricians will check the circuit breakers for insight into the source of shorts or overloads. We’ll replace any wiring if the metal is outdated, frayed, or broken. We’ll also check the connections and wire coverings for damage and replace or repair those areas. These maintenance services help prolong the life of an electrical system and safeguard against electrical fires.

2. Electrical Panel Upgrades

An electrical panel is the main power source in a building and controls the distribution of electricity through the building. It usually includes fuses or circuit breakers to prevent shorts or overloads. The panel also contains the main power switches and all of the wiring that leads to outlets.

A power surge can damage anything that is plugged into an outlet in a building. The electrical panel protects against power surges by blocking the sudden increase of power traveling through the wiring. Surges may be caused by faulty wiring, lightning storms, and electrical overloads. Our electricians can install a surge protector on your electrical panel to further safeguard against power surges that may damage computers, kitchen appliances, and other necessary equipment.

3. Lighting Upgrades and Installation

Research has shown that the type, color, and brightness of lighting can affect workers’ productivity and performance quality. By providing your employees with a well-lit environment, you may be able to help improve their work performance. Flickering or dim lights can be replaced, and outdated lighting fixtures can be updated to be more modern or discreet.

To start, our team will assess your current lighting setup and make suggestions for how to improve the system. Some lighting fixture options we offer include flush mount, recessed, and track. We can install different types of fixtures in various rooms to meet the needs of each space. We also offer LED lights with multiple color settings. If your property includes landscaping, we can install high-voltage or low-voltage lighting in strategic areas to highlight certain features. These lights are useful for increasing security and emphasizing interesting fixtures, such as the company logo sign.

4. Cooling and Ventilation

Cooling and ventilation systems help keep a building comfortable. Ceiling fans increase airflow in a room, which is useful for creating a cool draft in the heat and for pushing hot air down in the winter. Exhaust fans remove moisture and odors, which is necessary for bathrooms. If you have an operational kitchen, we can also install a range hood to improve ventilation. Installing some of these systems may be a good idea if you have been relying on open windows to provide cooling and ventilation.

5. Remodeling Services

A remodel is an ideal time to replace outdated wiring and connections. Your commercial property may need a remodel if the electrical system is old or breaks down repeatedly. Our team has experience installing new wiring for remodels. We can replace knot and tube wiring, which is an outdated and ungrounded electrical setup. We can also replace aluminum wiring or make it safer with better insulation or coverings.
