What we do in Manitou Springs
Manitou Springs has some of the oldest homes on the Front Range. Knob-and-tube wiring, cloth-sheathed cable, and fuse boxes are all common. We replace them fully, to current code.
60A and 100A panels are widespread in Manitou's older homes. We upgrade to 200A service safely, navigating the tight spaces and access challenges older homes present.
Older Manitou homes rarely have GFCI or AFCI protection. We add it where required by code — bathrooms, kitchens, garages, bedrooms — protecting the home and its occupants.
Level 2 EV charger installs for Manitou Springs homes. We assess panel capacity first — many older homes need a panel upgrade before the charger goes in. We handle both.
Recessed lighting, LED conversions, exterior security lighting. We work carefully in older homes to minimize disruption to plaster walls and original finishes.
Older wiring fails in ways newer homes don't. We know where to look. $65 service call, diagnostic included, fixed same day when possible.
Manitou Springs electrical reality
Manitou Springs has homes built as far back as the 1880s. The electrical systems in many of them reflect that history — knob-and-tube wiring that was installed when electricity itself was new, fuse boxes that haven't been touched in 40 years, and outlets that were added in the 1960s without a permit.
We approach these homes with care. We don't tear out what doesn't need to go. But what does need to go — outdated, unsafe wiring — gets replaced completely and to current code. We pull Manitou Springs city permits for every job and pass every inspection.
