Why Raton properties call a local electrician
Raton is in New Mexico's high country. Long heating seasons, snow, and winter storms put steady demand on electrical systems and make outages more than an inconvenience. Older adobe and territorial-style buildings in Colfax County often hide several generations of wiring behind thick walls.
Most properties in Colfax County get their electricity from your local utility or rural electric cooperative. If your project touches the meter or main service, we handle the scheduling with the utility.
Our panel upgrades covers all of Raton, along with neighboring Maxwell, Capulin, Folsom, and Des Moines.
