Why Aztec properties call a local electrician

Around Aztec, properties are spread out and electrical systems work hard: wells, heat, shops, and outbuildings a long way from the meter. Cold winters and dry, windy springs take their toll on outdoor wiring and connections.

Electric service in San Juan County is typically provided by Farmington Electric Utility System, the City of Aztec, or the Navajo Tribal Utility Authority. For work on the service entrance or meter, we arrange the disconnect and reconnect with them so you do not have to.
