Most of us take electricity for granted, at least until we experience a power outage. But the reality is that it’s one of our greatest modern conveniences. We can light up any room in the house with the flick of a switch, and it helps us prepare our food, keep our families comfortable, and stay entertained. It’s also very safe, as long as you always use it responsibly.

For quality lighting design, insist on the best!
When you’re looking for ways to breathe some new life into your home, upgrading your lighting is a great choice. Most of us spend our whole day at work under bright fluorescent lights, and when we get home, it’s nice to have something different. Quality lighting design should provide you as much (or as little) light as you want at all times, and create a comfortable and inviting ambience for you and your family to relax and unwind. It’s also a great upgrade to make if you’re on a tight budget!
Want to save on electrical costs? We can help!
Energy costs are always on the rise, and there appears to be no end in sight. Arkansas is definitely no stranger to seasonal weather extremes, and it won’t be long before the outside temperatures (and your electric bills) start approaching triple digits. You do everything you can to be more energy-efficient, including turning off the lights in unoccupied rooms and constantly adjusting your thermostat, but you’re still not seeing a very big drop in your monthly bills. What else can you do?

Gary Houston Electric offers emergency electrical services around the clock!
Even though we get so used to it that we tend to take it for granted, it’s great to have electricity in our homes. After all, it keeps our families comfortable, fed, and entertained. Even short power outages are a real inconvenience, but what happens when you have an electrical emergency? Do you know when to call an electrician? The answer is any time that you feel that your family is at risk. The modest expense of an emergency electrician is a small price to pay to keep your home and family safe.
Keep the lights on with a Kohler generator, no matter how bad that the weather is outside!
Even though this current Arkansas winter has been relatively mild so far, we all know that we’re always at risk of a sudden cold snap, snowfall, or ice storm. Some winters are more extreme than others, and we all know that when communities in central Arkansas experience mass power outages, it can take utility companies days (and sometimes weeks) to get services restored. It’s definitely an inconvenience for everyone, and for people that need power to run medical equipment, it’s much more serious than that.
Start the new year off with a safety inspection!
When it comes to household electrical safety, you owe it to yourself and your family to be proactive. Most newer homes are built to very strict safety standards, but older homes might not have been built to those same standards, and may need some updates. Whatever the case, it can be very dangerous to assume that you don’t have any problems. That’s why you need to call an electrician every few years to make sure that you’re doing everything that you can to prevent electrical fires, frequently tripped breakers, and other problems.
Remodeling or Adding On? Call Us!
We all take a lot of pride in our homes, and spend most of our time there. Unfortunately, sometimes our needs change from the time that we moved in, and we have to make a change. In many cases, our families start to get larger (and acquire more things), and we outgrow the space. Sometimes we decide to finally get around to making those renovations that we’ve talked about since the day that we moved in.
Protect Your Business From Power Outages with a Kohler generator!
During certain times of year, Arkansas weather can be particularly cruel. Every summer, we’re subjected to triple digit temperatures, every winter, we get a little snow and a lot of ice, and we have severe thunderstorms all year long. What this means for homes and businesses is the regular threat of unexpected power outages. The utility companies do everything that they can to respond quickly to interruptions in service, but during emergencies, they can get short-handed, causing power outages that can often last for several days.
Three reasons to keep GHEC on speed dial
Any time that you need an electrician, it’s always important to make an informed decision. You owe it to yourself to find a company that does quality work, and does it quickly. It’s also extremely important to find a company with a solid reputation that you can trust to invite into your home, and won’t force you to call in someone later to fix their substandard work.
