Why Amalia properties call a local electrician
At elevation, Amalia 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.
Depending on your address, power in Taos County typically comes from Kit Carson Electric Cooperative. When a job involves the meter or the service connection, we coordinate the shutoff and reconnection with the utility.
We provide outlet installation throughout Amalia and in nearby Costilla, Cerro, Questa, and Red River.

Outlet Installation FAQs for Amalia
How much does it cost to add an outlet in Amalia?
It depends on how far the new outlet is from an existing power source and what the walls are made of. Adding one beside an existing outlet is quick. Fishing wire through adobe or across a finished room takes longer.
Can you ground my two-prong outlets?
Yes. Depending on the wiring, we run a ground, rewire the circuit, or install GFCI protection, which is an accepted way to allow three-prong outlets on ungrounded circuits.
Where are GFCI outlets required?
Bathrooms, kitchens, garages, laundry areas, unfinished basements, crawl spaces, and all outdoor locations, among others.
