Smart home services
Many smart switches need a neutral wire that older Thoreau homes do not have in the switch box, and smart thermostats often need a C-wire. We add what is missing so you are not relying on workarounds. For new builds and remodels we pre-wire for networking, cameras, and speakers.

Local knowledge for Thoreau, McKinley County
Northwest New Mexico's plateau country brings freezing winter nights, spring wind, and summer lightning. Around Thoreau, that means voltage drop on long feeders, weathered outdoor equipment, and electrical systems that have been added onto over the years.
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.
Our smart home wiring covers all of Thoreau, along with neighboring Crownpoint, Grants, Smith Lake, and Prewitt.

Do smart switches work without a neutral wire?
Some models do, with limits. The most reliable fix is to add a neutral to the switch box, which we can do.
Can you install devices I already bought?
Yes. We install customer-supplied smart devices and help with the initial setup.
