Repairing Benton's mix of housing stock

Benton runs from 1970s–1980s ranches with aluminum branch circuits to new 200-amp construction off Airline Drive, plus year-round lake homes around Cypress Black Bayou. Each has its own failure patterns — aluminum needs copper pigtails at every device, older meter bases fail after wind events, and lake homes lose GFCI protection to moisture. We repair all of them.

Every repair call includes a full diagnostic — we don't guess. When a breaker trips, we clamp the load, check terminations for heat, and confirm the breaker itself is good before we swap parts. When outlets go dead, we trace back to the actual open connection instead of blindly replacing the last outlet on the run. That's why our repairs stay fixed.
