As we begin another sweltering hot summer in The Natural State, we know that our energy bills are about to rise as high as the temperature outside! It already costs a small fortune to run our air conditioning each summer, and our utility providers operate as legal monopolies with the freedom to raise rates as they see fit. The only sure-fire way to fight back is by reducing our consumption, and that’s where our team at Gary Houston Electric comes in! We’ve been Little Rock’s most trusted residential electrician since 1978, and we’re always a phone call away when you’d like to schedule an in-home energy efficiency audit!

There are numerous budget-friendly projects that can be completed in just a few days, and our team at Gary Houston Electric is here to help. And if you don’t quite know where to start, we’re always happy to sit down with you and brainstorm!

We’re currently getting our first taste of pleasant spring weather in The Natural State, but we all know that triple-digit temperatures are only weeks away! Our energy costs predictably increase in the summertime, and the only effective way to lower our bills is to reduce our consumption. That’s often easier said than done, but the good news is that there are plenty of easy ways to save energy that don’t require sacrificing your family’s comfort!

The Natural State has an abundance of natural resources and no shortage of scenic beauty, but it’s also subject to extreme seasonal weather. The recent snowstorm in central Arkansas trapped many families in their homes for nearly a week, and there’s no telling when all the large piles of plowed snow will finally melt away. It’s a little terrifying to imagine the power going out while you and your family are snowed in and the roads are impassable, but a KOHLER emergency generator enables you to maintain continuous power in your home and weather any storm in comfort and safety.

Shopping for a new home is a very time-consuming process, and there’s nothing quite like finding a bargain-priced property with “great bones” if you’re on a budget! Just remember that it’s always important to know your limitations when it comes to DIY projects, and be sure to budget generously for renovations. And even if a real estate listing says that a home is move-in ready, that doesn’t mean that it’s completely free from potential safety issues!

We all enjoy spending time indoors with our families when the outdoor temperatures drop, but this is also the time of year when our home heating costs predictably skyrocket! The market price of natural gas is determined by supply and demand, and our utility providers are free to pass those costs on to their customers as they see fit. The good news is that there are several ways to reduce your household energy consumption without sacrificing your family’s comfort, and our team at Gary Houston Electric is here to help!

No matter how happy you are with your home, you likely have plenty of upgrades in mind that you plan on getting to as soon as you can find the time! Some of those upgrades are more ambitious than others, but the sooner you get them completed, the sooner you and your family will be able to enjoy them! But it’s always essential to know your limitations when it comes to DIY projects and remember that there’s no shame in leaving the toughest jobs to the pros!

We all love living in The Natural State, and it definitely lives up to its name! Whether you’re into active outdoor activities or prefer relaxing by the water with a cold drink in one hand and a fishing rod in the other, you’ll never run out of places to go or things to do! Unfortunately, Arkansans are no strangers to seasonal weather extremes, and power outages can last for weeks on end after ice storms or other catastrophic events. But our team at Gary Houston Electric is proud to be an authorized supplier of KOHLER emergency generators, and we’re a phone call away whenever you’re ready for a free, no-obligation estimate!
