Conway Electrical Company handles electrical work for homes and businesses across Conway, Arkansas. Repairs, panel upgrades, wiring, lighting, EV charger installation, generator hookups, and more. Whether a breaker keeps tripping or a full rewire is on the table, we scope the job on the call, confirm the price before anything is scheduled, and get the work done right. We are available every day from 5:00 AM to 10:30 PM. Schedule it. We wire it. You're powered.
Your home deserves wiring that's safe and up to code, and when something goes wrong, the symptoms usually make themselves known fast. A dead outlet on one wall. Lights that flicker when the refrigerator kicks on. A breaker that trips every time the microwave runs. A burning smell near a panel or a buzzing sound behind a switch plate. Partial power loss to one side of the house. These are not nuisances to live with. Each one points to something specific, and getting a clear answer starts with a call.
We troubleshoot the problem before any work is quoted. That means tracing the fault, identifying whether it is in the circuit, the device, or the panel, and telling you exactly what needs to happen next. GFCI protection in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and outdoor areas is part of what we check when outlets stop responding. AFCI breakers, which are required in most living spaces under current code, come up when a circuit is showing signs of arcing. We give you a plain diagnosis before a single part is ordered.
Clear communication from the first call to the final test is how every repair job runs. Call and we'll get you back to full power.
A flickering light and a full rewire start the same way, and so does a panel replacement: with a conversation about what the current setup can and cannot handle. Breaker panels wear out. Older panels, especially those with known design issues from earlier decades, can become a safety concern as they age. Panels that were sized for a smaller load get overwhelmed when a home adds a hot tub, a second HVAC unit's dedicated circuit, or an EV charger. When the panel cannot keep up, the answer is usually an upgrade.
We handle breaker panel replacement, full service-entrance upgrades, and subpanel installation for properties that need capacity in a detached garage or a workshop. Load calculations are part of the process. Before a new panel is specified, we work out what the property is drawing now and what it is likely to draw with the planned additions, so the new panel is sized to last. Business owners dealing with a buzzing panel or repeated tripped breakers on a commercial circuit get the same diagnostic approach: identify the load, identify the panel's limits, and quote the right fix.
We take pride in the electrical work we leave behind. Call now and we'll set the appointment.
The wiring around here has its own patterns, and knowing Conway changes how a job gets scoped.
Faulkner County has a wide range of housing ages. Older neighborhoods near downtown Conway carry homes built in the 1940s through the 1970s, and those houses commonly have wiring that has never been touched since original installation. Knob-and-tube wiring, where it still exists, was not designed for the loads a modern household puts on a circuit. Aluminum branch-circuit wiring from the 1960s and 1970s is another common find in properties of that era. It is not automatically a hazard, but it requires the right connections and devices to stay safe, and a lot of older homes in this area have had neither checked in decades.
Panels in homes from that period are worth a close look as well. Fuse boxes are still in service in some of the older stock. Split-bus panels, which were common through the 1960s, are another type we encounter regularly. Neither is illegal to own, but both have limits that matter when a homeowner is adding circuits or planning a remodel.
Newer subdivisions in Conway and the surrounding parts of Faulkner County tend to have more current wiring and panel setups, but even a fifteen-year-old home can have circuits that were not sized for today's appliance loads. We scope the job against what is actually in the walls, not against what the build year suggests.
Getting your electrical problem handled starts with a quick call, and for wiring jobs, that call is where the scope gets set. Whole-home rewiring, partial rewiring for a single floor or addition, and targeted repairs to faulty or damaged wiring all follow the same process: we identify what is there, confirm what code requires, and quote the job before anything is opened up.
Knob-and-tube replacement and aluminum-wiring remediation are work we handle in older Conway homes. Code-compliant wiring, proper grounding, and bonding are not optional steps we skip to save time. Grounding is what protects both the equipment and the people using it, and it is part of every wiring job we do.
Dedicated appliance circuits are a common request. A dryer circuit, a range circuit, a 240-volt outlet for a workshop compressor, or a 220-volt line for a window unit that is running on a shared circuit. Each of these gets its own breaker, its own wire run, and its own outlet sized for the load. We'll sort the wiring and clean up after.
Outlet work covers more ground than most people expect. A single dead outlet can mean a tripped GFCI somewhere upstream. Installing a new outlet in a room that never had one, replacing a two-prong ungrounded outlet with a grounded three-prong, or adding GFCI protection in a bathroom or kitchen are all common jobs. AFCI outlets and breakers, required in bedrooms and living areas under current code, come up during remodels and safety inspections.
Switch work runs from a basic replacement to a dimmer installation in a dining room to a three-way switch that is not behaving correctly. We diagnose before we replace, because a switch that keeps failing usually has a wiring issue behind it, not just a bad switch.
Lighting installation covers recessed lighting in a kitchen remodel, under-cabinet lighting over a countertop, ceiling fan installation and wiring where a box needs to be rated for the weight, and indoor and outdoor fixtures of all types. On the exterior, security lighting, motion sensor lights, and landscape lighting wiring are jobs we handle for both residential and commercial properties. Every installation is practical: the right fixture, the right circuit, and the right location for what the space actually needs.
When the power goes out, or when a remodel opens up walls that reveal wiring that should have been replaced a decade ago, the scope of an electrical job can shift quickly. We work across both residential and commercial properties in Conway and Faulkner County, and the range of work covers most of what either type of property needs.
On the residential side, kitchen and bathroom remodels are common starting points. Adding circuits for a new appliance, wiring a garage or workshop, or running power to a home addition all require the same thing: a clear plan, a quoted price, and work done to the code inspectors in this area enforce. Electrical safety inspections, which give a homeowner a clear picture of what is in the panel and in the walls, are something we offer as a standalone service and as part of a larger job.
For commercial clients, the work includes electrical repair, office circuit installation, commercial lighting, and outlet installation for retail and office spaces. A property manager dealing with a tripped breaker in a tenant space or a business owner planning a buildout gets the same approach: we show up, scope the job, and give you a price before anything starts. We show up, and we keep you posted until the job is done.
We take pride in the electrical work we leave behind, and that applies to commercial properties the same as it does to a single-family home in a Conway neighborhood.
A Level 2 home EV charger requires a dedicated 240-volt circuit run from the panel to the garage or parking area. The installation involves the circuit, the breaker, and the charger mounting, sized to the vehicle manufacturer's requirements. We confirm the panel has the capacity before anything is quoted, and if an upgrade is needed to support the new circuit, that gets factored into the scope from the start. The result is a charger that is wired correctly, protected by the right breaker, and ready for daily use.
Connecting a standby or portable generator to a home requires a transfer switch. The transfer switch is what keeps generator power from feeding back into the utility line, which is a safety requirement, not an optional step. We handle transfer switch installation, standby generator wiring, and the connection between the generator and the panel. The electrical hookup is what we scope and quote. The work covers the circuits the generator will feed and the disconnect that controls the switchover.
A surge protector installed at the panel level protects every circuit in the house, not just the outlets where a strip is plugged in. Lightning, utility switching events, and large appliances cycling on and off all generate voltage spikes that degrade electronics and appliances over time. A panel-level device catches those spikes before they reach the wiring. For Conway homes with older panels or a lot of sensitive electronics, it is a straightforward addition to an existing panel job or a standalone installation.
A plain answer on repair versus upgrade is something every caller should get before they commit to anything. When you call, the first conversation covers what the problem is, what the likely cause is, and what the job involves. From there, you get a price. Not a range. Not an estimate that grows once someone is on site. A price that reflects the scope as it is understood on the call, with any variables explained clearly.
Cost questions about a panel upgrade, a rewiring job, a ceiling fan installation, an outlet replacement, an EV charger installation, or a generator hookup are all reasonable to ask on that first call. We answer them directly. If the job turns out to be more involved once the wall is open, that conversation happens before the work continues, not after the invoice is written.
The same number that books the job is the number to call with any question afterward. Nothing is left open-ended at the end of a job. Ready for your wiring. Call now.
We serve Conway and the communities around it throughout Faulkner County. That includes Vilonia, Greenbrier, Mayflower, Maumelle, Morrilton, and Wooster. If you are outside Conway proper but in the surrounding area, call and ask about scheduling. We take work across the county and into neighboring communities, and availability is confirmed on the call.
We are open every day from 5:00 AM to 10:30 PM. For urgent electrical faults, calls are answered within those hours and appointments are arranged as quickly as the schedule allows.
It means the call is answered by someone who knows the trade and can scope the job while you are on the phone. Older homes near downtown Conway, newer subdivisions in Faulkner County, and the wiring patterns common to each are part of what informs how a job gets assessed before anyone shows up. The work is done to the code inspectors in this area enforce.
We diagnose before we quote. If the symptom points to a single faulty outlet or a tripped GFCI upstream, that is what we tell you. A panel upgrade is not recommended when a targeted repair handles the problem. A plain answer on repair versus upgrade is part of every service call where that question is relevant.
You reach someone who can take the details of the job, ask the right questions, and give you a price on the call. The conversation covers what the problem is, what the work involves, and what it costs before anything is scheduled. You are not navigating a menu or waiting for a callback to get basic information.
We confirm the appointment on the call itself, including the date, the time window, and what the job involves.
If anything changes before the visit, we are reachable at (501) 536-6282 every day from 5:00 AM to 10:30 PM.
The quote is built on what you describe and the questions we ask on the phone. For straightforward jobs, a price is given on that first call. For larger jobs, such as a full rewire or a panel upgrade, the scope is confirmed before a number is attached to it. Either way, the price is settled before anyone is dispatched.
Knowing the area means knowing what to look for. Older neighborhoods near downtown Conway commonly have wiring that has not been touched since original installation, including knob-and-tube runs and panels that were sized for a much smaller load. Newer subdivisions push different limits. That context shapes the questions we ask on the phone and the assessment we do on site.
Call (501) 536-6282 and describe what you are seeing.
If something surfaces after the visit, a follow-up assessment can be scheduled. The final test at the end of a job is meant to catch problems before we leave, but if something surfaces after the visit, the right move is to call and get it looked at.
Some jobs, particularly full rewires or panel upgrades that uncover additional wiring issues, may require more than one visit to complete. If that becomes clear during the first visit, we tell you before the second trip is scheduled and confirm the price for the additional work. Nothing is added to the scope without your agreement.
Conway Electrical Company is ready to take your call. Whether it is a tripped breaker, an outlet that stopped working, a panel that needs replacing, or a full rewire, the process starts the same way: a call, a conversation, and a price before anything is scheduled.
