Electrical Services on the Iron Range

Approve Home Services does licensed electrical work for homes on the Iron Range and in the Duluth area. We’ve been family-owned since 1990. A lot of folks still know us as Approve Plumbing. Over the years we added electrical so you aren’t juggling two contractors when a job touches both trades. You still get a firm price before we start, and the truck shows up with parts we actually use on residential calls.

Electrical Work We Handle

Plenty of Range homes were wired when a fridge and a few lights were the heavy loads. Today you’ve got bigger kitchens, home offices, chargers, and sometimes electric heat on the same old panel. Winter doesn’t help either. Connections loosen as materials expand and contract through the cold.

We show up for jobs like these:

  • Electrical repair for outlets, switches, lighting, and general troubleshooting
  • Electrical panel repair and upgrades, including service upgrades when the house needs more capacity
  • Wiring and rewiring for remodels, additions, and outbuildings
  • New outlets and switches, or moving ones that land in the wrong spot
  • Lighting upgrades indoors and outside
  • Generator hookups and transfer switches
  • Electric baseboard and other heating circuit work

Warm outlets, lights that flicker when the microwave kicks on, or a panel that looks tired next to a busy kitchen: those are worth a licensed look. We’ll tell you what we found, what the risk is, and what it costs. Nothing starts until you say yes to that price.

What to Expect on an Electrical Visit

Safety comes first. We diagnose, explain it without jargon, and lock in a firm price before we open anything up. Pick the two-hour arrival window that suits you, and if an earlier slot opens up, we’ll call to get you in sooner.

A lot of residential electrical repairs finish on the first visit because common breakers and devices are already on the truck. Bigger panel upgrades and rewires take more planning. We’ll map that out with you so you know how the day will go and what the house will look like while we’re working.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you upgrade electrical panels?

Yes. If breakers trip a lot, the panel is outdated, or you need more capacity, we can repair or upgrade it. More detail is on the panel repair & upgrades page.

Can you handle both electrical and plumbing?

Yes. We’re licensed for both. That’s handy when something like a water heater won’t fire and you’re not sure which trade owns the problem.

Is electrical service available in Duluth?

Yes. Gilbert and Virginia are covered, and so is the Duluth area. The Duluth page has local details and the Duluth office number if that location fits better.

How do I book an electrician?
