When Arlington Community Church learned that their older electrical infrastructure wasn’t up to par for safety, they trusted PRO Electric plus HVAC to do the entire project. We replaced the 10-year warranty breaker panel, added necessary safety equipment such as surge protectors and GFCI outlets, and boosted grounding with new water pipe bonding and ground rods. "With 13 new, energy-efficient light fixtures lighting their building, the church now has a clean and modern electric infrastructure that complies with all codes. They can be focused on their mission in the knowledge that their facility is secure and functional.
It was midnight, and Bob was sound asleep when something rocked his house. He heard a loud bomb and thought he had awoken to find himself in a war zone.
Except his lawn and garden weren’t in flames, so maybe he just dreaming?
Maybe the neighborhood teenagers had finally delved into some serious fireworks?
Smelling smoke and looking to his left, Bob discovered that his house was blacked out.
It turned out that a lightning strike had nailed his landscape light transformer and blew a fuse – or three – on his home.
The Incident:
Bob had descended the stairs to find his utility room full of smoke and his main breaker tripped. He panicked. He picked up the phone and called the ‘red light truck’ (the fire department), and a crew showed up with a hose in hand.
They took the hose around his yard in an impromptu water parade while he stood there in a stupor.
After some sleuthing and a lot of eye groping, the crew learned that two GFCI outlets had been fried, and Bob’s $150+ router was stone dead.
The transformer supplying his landscape lights had blown up, and its innards were scattered across Bob’s lawn. Bob surveyed the carnage, his once-glowing garden ablaze and in ruins.
The Solution:
It went well beyond the need for a new router or two ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlets.
This man needed Mother Nature keeping her mitts off his wiring and so into his life came the whole house surge protector: a home electrical hero who would shield Bob and his house not just from those occasional lightning strikes, not just from random power surges, but from whatever Mother Nature and I guess the universe had in store for him.
Results:
The whole‑house surge protector was installed, and Bob’s home is now protected.
It has a lifetime warranty and $100,000 in damage insurance.
Bob can sleep soundly, knowing his assets are safe and shielded from the dreaded electrical monster. And he also dodged the therapy bill for Sparky, the poor dog who still hasn’t recovered from the shock.
Conclusion:
Bob also knows first hand how a lightning strike on his wiring can suddenly turn the night into something out of an action movie – but now that he has a whole house surge protector, his next lightning strike won’t include an explosive wake-up call! Don’t want to wake up standing in the dark clutching the broken parts of your transformer? Take a page from Bob’s book! Get that whole house surge protector and keep those sparks confined – where they belong – inside your light bulbs, not your garden!

“Excellent service and very professional. Jason is extremely responsible, detail-oriented, and takes his work seriously. His pricing was also very fair and reasonable. My house suddenly had an electrical issue and kept tripping the breaker, and I had no idea what was causing it. I contacted several other electricians before, but none of them could figure out the problem. A friend recommended Jason, and he came over and diagnosed everything quickly. He spent about 1–2 hours and completely solved the issue. I really appreciate his professionalism and highly recommend this company!

Kitchen light fixture all the sudden broke down at Saturday night. Called and the technician Peter showed up as soon as he could on the next day. He did a quick examination and recommended us to replace it with a newer model, since the old one was outdated. He later went and got me a replacement from Home Depot and then installed for us quickly. The work is quick and beautiful with a very reasonable price for a weekend work. I highly recommended. If you need a professional and honest electrician, you have to give them a call 👍👍

I said no way to going up a 25 ft. ladder to change a fire detector at the top of my cathedral ceiling, but Peter did! I can’t sing his praises enough, my only complaint is that I didn’t find his company years ago! He’s polite, clean, and efficient. I’m hiring him to come back next week to change out my light fixtures as well. Thanks for your help if you’re reading this!

From start to finish, Peter and team were punctual, professional, and made it clear they took pride in their work. After an initial assessment, he walked us through the process for the charger installation and began to go right to work. They are fair, reliable, and customer oriented. After speaking to multiple contractors around the area - I cannot say the same for everyone else. I will definitely be reaching out to them for future HVAC needs!

He cares about the quality of his work and makes it to perfection. We highly recommend them!

2nd time working with the folks, awesome experience with ProElectric. Peter and Jason were super helpful and friendly. They put in some recessed lights for us, installed a chandelier, pedent lights and set up eight smart switches. They really went the extra mile to make sure everything was spot on. They explained what they were doing in a way that made sense to me. i wouldn't look elsewhere if i have some electric needs.

Jason and his team are some of the best out there! Make sure you reach out to him with as much notice as possible, because he gets booked up quickly (makes sense, given how great the work is). Jason and his colleague Jose were efficient in installing 3 ceiling fans, a chandelier (tricky, non American standard, but they still made it work), a powder room wall outlet, and 2 wall sconces. They were even able to wire in some dimmer switches for me as a last second request, while they were completing the other tasks. One of the fans I bought had a faulty motor, and Jason made sure to squeeze me in immediately the following week to get the correct fan installed. They even installed a video doorbell for me and hardwired it to work with my existing chime (something I could not figure out myself). Moreover, their prices are extremely fair and reasonable for the quality of their work, and the knowledge they have. I will always work with Jason, Jose, and the team at Pro Electric for all of my electrical and wiring needs. Thank you guys again!

I hired Pro Electric to install a receptacle for an EV charger in the garage and I couldn't be happier with the result. Jason conducted an initial assessment over FaceTime, and him and José were very professional during the installation. Pro Electric was the best price for our job, and they were also fine with me providing the electrical wire to cut costs. I would absolutely hire them again!

Pro Electric came out at very short notice on Labor Day weekend. They arrived when they said they would, solved my problem very professionally and quickly, and even charged me less than the quote because it didn't take as long as they thought it would. I would definitely recommend them!

Install Electrical Switches, Outlets, or Fixtures I hired Pro Electric to install an outlet in my home. They were quick and responsive to questions, arrived on time, and were very professional in appearance and manner. I was impressed to the point that I immediately asked them back to work on a few more projects. I do not lightly recommend just any contractor. However, I think Pro Electric should definitely be on your short list for consideration.

Pro elec fixed 11 of my basement recess lights. They gave me the cheapest price I can find. Instead of replacing everything they fixed it. I am very satisfied with their work. They also checked my other lights in question. Highly recommended!!
