TRS Electric has been doing electrical work in Oro Valley and across Pima County since 2012. That is 14 years of showing up at homes, rental properties, offices, and job sites, diagnosing problems, and getting the power running right. We work with homeowners who need a quick repair, landlords who need a reliable crew on call, property managers keeping multi-unit buildings safe, and commercial clients who need electrical work done on a schedule.
When you call us, you talk to the people who actually show up. This business was built locally, and the same people who answer the phone are the ones pulling wire and standing behind the work.

From a single GFCI outlet to a whole-home rewire, we've seen it all, and most calls start the same way: something stopped working and nobody knows why. Flickering lights, dead outlets, a breaker that keeps tripping, a circuit that goes out under load. These are the calls we take every day, and we take them seriously.
A typical troubleshooting visit starts with a real assessment. We look at the symptom, trace it back to the source, and explain what we found before any work begins. That might be a failing outlet, a loose connection behind the wall, a wiring fault, or a breaker that has worn out. We also check GFCI and AFCI protection where it is required, because those devices exist to prevent shocks and fires, not just to satisfy an inspector.
Same-day electrical service is available for urgent situations. If your outlet is dead or your breaker is tripping on a circuit you rely on, do not wait it out. We get to the bottom of the problem fast.
If you're not sure your panel can handle the load, you are not alone. A lot of homes in this area were built or wired before modern households had electric vehicle chargers, home offices, and high-draw appliances all running at once. When a panel is undersized or aging, it shows: breakers trip repeatedly, circuits feel sluggish, or there simply are not enough slots for new circuits.
We handle breaker panel repair and replacement, 200-amp service upgrades, fuse box replacement, and subpanel installation. We do load calculations to make sure the new service fits what you actually need, and we handle the service-entrance work from the meter in. Dedicated circuits for dryers, ranges, 240-volt equipment, and other high-draw appliances are a natural part of this work, and we wire them to code.
Work is performed by licensed electricians, from the permit pull to the final inspection. Leave the breakers to us.
We've handled everything from a flickering light to a full rewire, and older homes tend to need more of both. Knob-and-tube wiring, aluminum branch circuits, and wiring that was extended over the years without a real plan are common in properties that have changed hands a few times. These are not just code issues. They are safety issues, and they can affect insurance coverage and resale value.
We do whole-home rewiring, partial rewiring for specific areas, and targeted upgrades that bring a home into compliance without tearing everything apart. If you are renovating, adding square footage, finishing a garage, or getting a house ready to sell, an electrical safety inspection is a smart starting point. It tells you exactly what needs attention and what can stay.
We built this business around electrical work like this, and outdoor electrical is some of the most requested work we do in Oro Valley. The climate here supports outdoor living well into the evening for most of the year, and that means lighting, outlets, and wiring that can handle the environment.
We install recessed and LED lighting indoors, landscape and security lighting outside, ceiling fans with proper wiring and switch control, and weatherproof outlets on patios, under eaves, and along exterior walls. For homeowners with pools or hot tubs, we handle the pool electrical wiring and spa circuits that those setups require.
Outdoor work is wired to weatherproof standards, and we make sure every fixture and outlet is installed safely, whether it is a single security light or a full landscape lighting layout. We're one phone call from getting your power right.
We've handled everything from a flickering light to a full rewire, but these three services have become some of the most common requests we get from Oro Valley homeowners and property managers.
EV Charger Installation. A Level 2 home charger needs a dedicated 240-volt circuit and enough panel capacity to support it. We assess your panel first, run the circuit, and install the charger so it is ready to use and code-compliant.
Backup Generator Hookups. We wire generator transfer switches so your backup power connects safely to your home's electrical system without backfeeding the utility lines. We handle the hookup and the transfer switch installation; you choose the generator that fits your needs.
Whole-Home Surge Protection. Arizona's monsoon season brings fast, heavy storms and the power surges that come with them. A whole-home surge protector installed at the panel protects every outlet and device in the house from those spikes. It is one of the more straightforward upgrades we offer, and one of the more valuable ones for this area.
We stand behind this work with a workmanship guarantee on every wiring job.
Trusted for years. Ready for your wiring. Call anytime.
Property managers trust us to keep their buildings powered, and that means we work across a wide range of property types. Homeowners make up a large part of our work, but we also serve retail spaces, office suites, light commercial facilities, and new construction projects that need a reliable electrical contractor from rough-in through finish.
Commercial work includes panel upgrades sized for business loads, office wiring and circuit additions, tenant buildout electrical, and rough-in service for new construction. We coordinate with general contractors and property managers who need work done on a schedule and done right the first time.
The scale of the project does not change how we approach it. Whether it is a single outlet in a home or a full electrical rough-in for a commercial space, the same licensed electricians handle the work with the same attention to code and safety.
We assess the job, give you a clear quote before work starts, and do not add charges after the fact that were not part of the original conversation. If something unexpected comes up once we are in the wall or at the panel, we stop and explain it before we proceed. You decide how to move forward.
No pressure and no gimmicks, just safe, solid wiring. That is how we have run this business since 2012, and it is why customers in Oro Valley and across Pima County call us back when something else comes up.
Scheduling is straightforward. Same-day and weekend appointments are available for urgent needs. If you need an electrician today or this weekend, call and we will tell you what we can do.
We are based in Oro Valley and serve the wider Pima County region. Our crew works regularly in:
If you are in or near any of these communities and need an electrician, we are close by and ready to schedule.
We have been doing electrical work in Oro Valley and across Pima County since 2012, which puts us at 14 years in this community. Over that time we have worked on everything from aging wiring in older ranch homes to new construction in the area's growing subdivisions. That history means we know the local housing stock and what property owners here actually need.
When you call us, you talk to the people who actually show up. This business was built locally, and the same people who answer the phone are the ones pulling wire and standing behind the work. There is no guessing about who is coming to your home or business.
Every wiring job we complete comes with a workmanship guarantee. If something we installed or repaired develops a problem related to our work, we make it right. That commitment has been part of how we operate since we opened in 2012.
If a problem returns that is related to work we performed, call us and we will come back to assess it. Our workmanship guarantee covers the quality of what we install and repair. We stand behind the work and we do not walk away from a job that is not right.
Yes, older homes are a significant part of what we work on. We regularly handle knob-and-tube wiring, aluminum branch circuits, and panels that were sized for a much lighter electrical load than what today's households run. We know what those systems look like and what it takes to bring them up to current code safely.
Work is performed by licensed electricians who pull the required permits and follow current code on every job. We do not cut corners on inspections or skip the permit process to save time. A properly permitted job protects you when you sell the property or file an insurance claim.
Our workmanship guarantee covers the quality of the installation or repair we performed. If the work itself fails or develops a defect, we come back and fix it at no additional charge. It does not cover damage caused by outside factors, but it does mean we stand behind what we install.
TRS Electric has been a part of this community since 2012, and the work we do here reflects that. Fourteen years of electrical repairs, panel upgrades, rewiring projects, EV charger installs, and outdoor wiring across Oro Valley and Pima County. We are not a large operation trying to be everything to everyone. We are a local electrical contractor that takes the work seriously and stands behind it.
Same-day electrical service is available, and scheduling is as simple as a phone call.

| Electrical Service | What It Covers | Ideal For | Worth Knowing |
|---|---|---|---|
| Whole-Home Surge Protection |
| homeowners with electronics, appliances, or solar systems they want to protect | Arizona's monsoon season brings frequent lightning and power fluctuations. A panel-mounted surge protector is the most effective first line of defense. |
| RV Hookups |
| homeowners who park an RV or trailer at home and need a proper hookup | A proper RV outlet protects your vehicle's electrical system and eliminates the need for extension cords, which are not a safe long-term solution. |
| Wiring & Circuit Installation |
| older homes, additions, renovations, and finished spaces | Aluminum wiring and knob-and-tube systems are common in older Tucson-area homes. We assess the condition and recommend the right remediation approach. |
| Electrical Safety Inspections |
| buyers, landlords, and property managers who need to know the condition of a building's wiring | Work performed by licensed electricians means the inspection report reflects a professional assessment, not a visual-only walkthrough. |
| Solar & Battery Installation |
| homeowners adding solar or battery storage to an existing home | We handle the electrical infrastructure behind a solar system. The panel, circuits, and interconnection wiring have to be right for the whole setup to perform safely. |
| Electrical Repairs & Troubleshooting |
| homeowners and tenants with an active electrical problem | Same-day service is available for most repairs, so you are not left waiting with a live problem. |
| Electrical Panel UpgradesMost Popular |
| homes with aging panels that cannot keep up with today's electrical loads | Oro Valley's long air-conditioning season puts a sustained load on older panels. We size the new panel for current use and future additions. |
| Outdoor & Misting-System Circuits |
| homeowners adding outdoor living features or a misting system | Misting systems require a dedicated circuit with proper GFCI protection. We run the circuit and install the outlet so the setup is safe and code-compliant. |
| Lighting Installation |
| homeowners upgrading indoor lighting or adding outdoor fixtures | Outdoor fixtures in Oro Valley take a beating from UV exposure and heat. We use weatherproof materials rated for the desert climate. |
| Outlet & Switch Installation |
| homeowners adding outlets or bringing older wiring up to current code | GFCI protection is required by code in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and outdoor areas. We handle the installation and inspection. |
| Dedicated Appliance Circuits |
| homeowners adding high-draw appliances or finishing a workspace | High-draw appliances need their own breaker. Running a dedicated circuit prevents nuisance trips and protects the appliance. |
| Breaker & Fuse Repair |
| homes with breakers that trip repeatedly or fail to reset | A breaker that trips repeatedly is a warning sign, not just an inconvenience. We trace the cause before replacing parts. |
| Ceiling Fan Installation |
| homeowners adding or replacing ceiling fans in any room | If there is no existing wiring at the location, we run a new circuit so the fan is installed correctly from the start. |
| EV Charger Installation |
| EV owners who want a Level 2 home charger installed correctly | If your panel does not have the capacity for a 240-volt circuit, we handle the upgrade at the same time so everything is sized right. |
How do I know if my panel needs to be upgraded?
Common signs include breakers that trip frequently, a panel that feels warm to the touch, lights that dim when large appliances kick on, or a panel that is simply too small for the circuits you are running. Older homes in the area that were built with 100-amp service often cannot handle the sustained load of modern air conditioning, solar systems, and EV chargers. We assess your panel, run a load calculation, and tell you plainly whether an upgrade makes sense.
What causes a breaker to keep tripping?
A breaker that trips repeatedly is usually telling you one of three things: the circuit is overloaded, there is a short somewhere in the wiring, or the breaker itself has worn out. Resetting it without diagnosing the cause is not a fix. We trace the problem to its source, explain what we found, and correct it before we leave.
Is the electrical work permitted and inspected to code?
Yes. Permitted work is required for most panel upgrades, service changes, new circuits, and rewiring projects. We pull the necessary permits and coordinate the inspection so the work is documented and code-compliant. That matters when you sell the home or file an insurance claim.
Same-Day and Emergency Availability
We keep same-day appointments available for repairs and urgent situations. You should not have to wait days to get a live electrical problem resolved.
What does flickering or dimming lights usually mean?
Occasional flickers when a large appliance starts up can be normal, but persistent flickering or lights that dim regularly often point to a loose connection, an overloaded circuit, or a panel that is struggling to deliver consistent voltage. It is worth having us take a look before the problem gets worse.
Is older wiring in my home safe?
It depends on the type and condition. Aluminum wiring and knob-and-tube systems were common in homes built before the 1970s, and both require a professional assessment. They are not automatically unsafe, but they do need to be evaluated and, in many cases, updated or remediated. We inspect the wiring, explain what we find, and recommend the right approach for your home.
What do I need for a Level 2 EV charger at home?
A Level 2 charger runs on a dedicated 240-volt circuit, which means we need to run a new circuit from your panel to the charger location, typically in the garage. We also check whether your panel has the available capacity to support the load. If it does not, we handle the panel upgrade at the same time. The result is a charger that is wired correctly, inspected, and ready to use every night.
Upfront Quotes With No Surprise Fees
We assess the job, give you a clear number, and nothing gets added after the fact without your approval. The price you agree to is the price on the invoice.
Do I need to be home when the electrician arrives?
Someone should be available to provide access to the panel and the work area. If you cannot be there yourself, another adult can let us in. Let us know when you schedule and we will work out the details so the visit goes smoothly.
How does pricing work and will the quote change?
We assess the job first, then give you a clear number before any work begins. We aim to give you a firm quote based on what we find. If something unexpected turns up once we are in the wall or at the panel, we stop, explain it, and get your approval before moving forward. You are never looking at a higher bill than what you agreed to.
Work Performed by Licensed Electricians
Every job, from a single outlet to a full panel upgrade, is handled by licensed electricians. The work meets code, and we stand behind it with a workmanship guarantee.
Is surge protection worth it for an Oro Valley home?
We think so, especially here. Arizona's monsoon season brings frequent lightning strikes and power fluctuations that can damage electronics, appliances, and solar equipment. A panel-mounted whole-home surge protector is the most cost-effective way to protect everything on your circuits at once, rather than relying on individual power strips.
When should I call an electrician instead of handling it myself?
Replacing a lightbulb or a cover plate is fine to do yourself. Anything that involves the wiring inside a wall, the breaker panel, a new circuit, or an outlet that has stopped working for no obvious reason is work for a licensed electrician. Electrical mistakes do not always show up immediately, but they can cause fires or shocks later. We are one phone call from getting your power right.
Is same-day electrical service available?
Yes. Same-day service is available for most repairs and urgent situations. If you call in the morning, we can often have someone at your door the same day. Call us to check availability and get on the schedule.
Every job is different, and the best way to know what yours involves is to call us directly. We will ask a few questions, give you a straight answer, and get you on the schedule.
