Why Thoreau properties call a local electrician
Around Thoreau, 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 McKinley County is typically provided by the City of Gallup, Continental Divide Electric Cooperative, 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.
Call us for outlet installation anywhere in Thoreau, or in nearby Crownpoint, Grants, Smith Lake, and Prewitt.

Outlet Installation FAQs for Thoreau
How much does it cost to add an outlet in Thoreau?
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.
