Why Prewitt properties call a local electrician

Prewitt is in the high country of northwest New Mexico, where cold winters, dusty winds, and long rural service runs are part of everyday life. Homes, shops, and ranch properties across McKinley County often depend on well pumps, space heating, and outbuildings fed by long runs of cable.

Depending on your address, power in McKinley County typically comes from the City of Gallup, Continental Divide Electric Cooperative, or the Navajo Tribal Utility Authority. When a job involves the meter or the service connection, we coordinate the shutoff and reconnection with the utility.
