Why Eagle Nest properties call a local electrician
At elevation, Eagle Nest 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 Colfax County get their electricity from your local utility or rural electric cooperative. If your project touches the meter or main service, we handle the scheduling with the utility.
Our smoke detector wiring covers all of Eagle Nest, along with neighboring Angel Fire, Ute Park, Taos Ski Valley, and Cimarron.
