The only electrical issue that should be on your mind this holiday season, is how much time you have left to see all the Christmas lights. However with every winter, power outages are inevitable. While some are a mild inconvenience, others can be threatening. Keeping the lights on when the frost begins to settle is won’t just keep you feeling toasty, it could keep you alive.

The Gary Houston Electric Company (GHEC) has been serving the Central Arkansas area for almost 40 years and during that time, we’ve made sure that our client’s yuletide season is a bright and warm one. Our line of time and harsh weather tested KOHLER generators have proven themselves year after year. And they make for great gifts the whole family can enjoy (and maybe a few neighbors if Mother Nature gets a little too icy).

These are just a few services of what GHEC can do keep the cold controlled:

1 Our Residential Services will take care of any electrical wiring and rewiring your home may need to keep the inside functional and the chill outside where it belongs.

2 Your business needs to be prepared for the inclement weather. Commercial Electrical Services are one of our many specialities and our ever growing portfolio of satisfied patrons is proof of that. Restaurants, interior design stores, and missions have all benefitted from our emergency generators and general repairs.

3 Electrical emergencies are bound to happen and when they do, you can depend on GHEC to come through with our Emergency Electrical Services. Our professional crew is on standby twenty four hours a day, seven days a week to provide you with the critically acclaimed service our clients have been talking about.

4 We offer a wide variety of Special Offers year round. To make this festive time of year even better, we’re offering 10% off your service call for the month of December.

We earned our “Readers’ Choice Award 2014” from the Arkansas Democrat Gazette and are more than willing to earn that honor in 2015.
