There are many advantages to purchasing a newly constructed home in a modern subdivision, but home buyers on a budget often choose to invest in a “handyman special” in an up-and-coming neighborhood. You probably already had several projects in mind when you made the offer on your home, but now that it’s yours, you might not quite know where to start! The good news is that our team of experienced residential electricians at Gary Houston Electric is here to help!

Most homeowners remember their closing date like it was only yesterday! The average home buyer looks at eight or more properties before making an offer, and it’s always exciting when the search is finally over. But whether it’s your first home or your forever home, you probably had some renovations in mind from day one. When you’re ready to get started, our team at Gary Houston Electric is here to help you keep your projects on schedule and within your budget!

Arkansans jokingly say that if you don’t like the weather, it will change soon enough! However, severe weather is no laughing matter, and plenty of communities are still rebuilding after an F3 tornado struck central Arkansas in early 2023. Weather-related power outages are common throughout the year, and utility companies struggle to restore power to affected households when they need it most. If you’re tired of “grinning and bearing it,” our team at Gary Houston Electric is ready to give you a quote for a KOHLER emergency backup generator!

Your home is one of the most important things you own, but it’s not nearly as important as the people who live there! Keeping your family safe is a huge responsibility, and it starts with routine preventive maintenance; most newly constructed homes include plenty of modern safety features, but an older home might require a few inexpensive repairs and upgrades to meet current safety standards. Our team at Gary Houston Electric has been offering trusted electrical service in Little Rock since 1978, and we’re just a phone call away when you want to schedule an in-home electrical safety inspection!

People throughout the world have been captivated by the smartphone, and they’re never far from our side. The smartphone has changed the ways that we communicate, how we learn, and how we keep ourselves entertained. But did you know that you can also use your smartphone to control your home lighting and appliances? The future is here, and our team at Gary Houston Electric is here to help you bring your home up to date!

Inflation rates haven’t been this high in decades, and the spending power of a dollar certainly isn’t what it used to be! Whether we’re buying groceries, household goods, or gasoline, there seems to be no end in sight to these higher prices. Utility providers also operate monopolies with the authority to increase rates as they see fit. The only option homeowners have to lower their bills is reducing their energy consumption, but that’s often easier said than done. The good news is that our team at Gary Houston Electric is always a phone call away, and we love helping our customers save money!

Unless you’re building a new home from the ground up, it’s a good bet that you had plenty of renovations in mind when you purchased your home. It’s all about “location, location, location” when it comes to real estate, and sometimes, the only way you can afford to move to your desired neighborhood is by purchasing a home that needs some work. Electrical wiring should also be inspected at least every 25 years or sooner if you’re unsure when it was last inspected. The good news is that our team at Gary Houston Electric is here to help! We’ve been the most trusted residential electrician in Little Rock since 1978, and we’re always a phone call away when you want to schedule an in-home safety evaluation.

Arkansas is known as The Natural State because of its scenic beauty, and it features one of the most geographically diverse ecosystems in the United States. Unfortunately, Arkansas is also no stranger to weather-related power outages that can affect thousands of homes at a time; homeowners in rural and suburban communities are often the hardest hit and can be without electricity for several days (or even weeks) after severe weather. The good news is that KOHLER emergency generators are more affordable than you think, and our team at Gary Houston Electric can perform most generator installations in a day or less!

Keeping your family safe is always of the utmost importance, and it starts at home. That means staying on top of necessary repairs, ensuring that you keep batteries in your smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors, and replacing your fire extinguisher once it reaches its expiration date. And you can’t afford to forget about electrical safety!
