Why Ruidoso Downs properties call a local electrician

At elevation, Ruidoso Downs sees cold winters, heavy snow on service lines, and lightning in the summer. Space heaters, heat tape, and well pumps work hard here, and many older homes were wired long before those loads existed.

Most properties in Lincoln County get their electricity from PNM or Otero County Electric Cooperative. If your project touches the meter or main service, we handle the scheduling with the utility.

We provide kitchen electrical work throughout Ruidoso Downs and in nearby Glencoe, Ruidoso, Alto, and Lincoln.
