Our Services

Whole-house surge protectors in San Rafael protect every outlet, appliance and wiring system from voltage spikes caused by lightning or grid issues. Prices typically range from $350 to $800 for the unit itself, plus $250-$400 for professional installation, so most homeowners spend under $1,200 total. Scheduling is simple: call, pick a convenient weekday slot, and a licensed electrician arrives within 24-48 hours to assess and install. The job involves mounting the protector at your main service panel, wiring it to the panel’s bus bars, and testing to ensure proper operation. After the install, the technician will show you how the indicator lights work and give you a basic maintenance checklist. This straightforward approach gives peace of mind without hidden fees or endless paperwork.
