Why Maxwell properties call a local electrician

Maxwell 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.
