Electrical Services in Fort Collins

Whether it's a simple outlet repair or a complex commercial build-out, our electricians deliver professional results every time.

Ceiling Fan Installation

We handle the full installation process, from securing the fan-rated electrical box and running new wiring to balancing the blades and programming remote controls.

Electrical Panel Upgrade

Aging panels with Federal Pacific, Zinsco, or fuse-based systems are documented fire hazards. Our licensed electricians replace them with UL-listed equipment that meets current NEC safety standards.

Commercial Electrician Services

We handle tenant improvements, lighting retrofits, panel upgrades, dedicated equipment circuits, emergency power systems, and code compliance upgrades for commercial and industrial spaces.

Electrical Repair Services

Ignoring electrical problems lets them get worse. Loose connections, arcing wires, and overloaded circuits cause thousands of house fires each year. Our licensed team fixes issues safely, the first time.

Whole House Surge Protector

Power surges destroy electronics, damage appliance control boards, and can even start fires. Our electricians install UL-listed surge protectors with proper grounding to defend your entire electrical system.

EV Charger Installation

We assess your panel capacity, install a dedicated 240V circuit, mount the charging unit in your garage or driveway, and handle all permits and inspections from start to finish.

Recessed Lighting Installation

Recessed lights create a clean, modern look while flooding your rooms with even illumination. LED recessed fixtures also cut your lighting energy use by up to 75 percent.

Circuit Breaker Repair

We test the suspect breaker with calibrated equipment, check for loose bus connections and signs of arcing, replace the faulty breaker with a matching UL-listed unit, and load-test the circuit.

Hot Tub / Pool Electrical Wiring

Water and electricity are a deadly combination. Pool and hot tub wiring requires GFCI protection, proper bonding of all metal surfaces, and specific clearance distances. Our electricians follow NEC Article 680 to the letter.

Security Camera Wiring

Professionally wired security cameras deliver reliable 24/7 recording without Wi-Fi dropouts or battery hassles. Protect your home and family with a surveillance system you can count on.

Landscape Lighting Installation

We design a custom layout, install a weatherproof transformer, run buried low-voltage cable to each fixture location, and program timers or photocells for effortless automated operation.

Generator Installation

Keep your home powered through any outage with a professionally installed backup generator. Enjoy uninterrupted comfort and security when the grid goes down.

Ring Doorbell Installation

We mount your Ring doorbell at the optimal height, run low-voltage wiring from your existing doorbell transformer, and configure the app so you are up and running in one visit.

Outlet Installation

Our electricians locate the nearest power source, run new wiring through your walls, install the outlet box, and test the circuit to confirm safe, reliable operation.

Electrical Wiring & Rewiring

Homes built before 1980 often have degraded insulation, undersized circuits, or knob-and-tube wiring that insurance companies flag as unacceptable. Our licensed electricians bring your wiring up to current NEC standards.

Electrical Inspection

Outdated wiring, missing ground wires, and improper connections are invisible dangers in thousands of homes. Our licensed inspectors identify every safety concern and prioritize what needs attention first.

Indoor Lighting Installation

We remove old fixtures, upgrade the electrical box if needed, connect and mount the new fixture securely, and test dimmer compatibility so your lights perform exactly as expected.

Electrical Troubleshooting

We use thermal imaging, multimeters, and circuit analyzers to trace faults through your wiring, identify the exact failure point, and recommend the most cost-effective repair.

Smart Home Electrical

Control your lights, thermostats, locks, and more from your phone or voice assistant. Smart home wiring creates a connected, energy-efficient home that simplifies your daily routine.

Carbon Monoxide Detector Installation

CO detector placement matters as much as having one. Installed too high, too low, or too far from sources, they may not alarm in time. Our electricians follow manufacturer and code guidelines precisely.

Smoke Detector Installation

Battery-only smoke detectors fail when batteries die. Our electricians install hardwired units with sealed backup batteries per current code, ensuring your family is protected around the clock.

Electrical Installation Services

Electrical installations done without permits or by unlicensed workers put your family at risk and can void your insurance. Our licensed electricians deliver code-compliant, inspected work on every job.

Aluminum Wiring Replacement

We carefully remove aluminum branch circuit wiring, pull new copper conductors through your existing pathways, terminate every connection at outlets, switches, and the panel, and restore your walls.

Do I need a licensed electrician in Fort Collins, CO?

JJC Electric installs 200-amp panels that handle modern electrical demands safely.

Does homeowners insurance cover electrical repairs in Fort Collins?

Most homeowners insurance in Fort Collins covers electrical damage caused by sudden events like lightning strikes or power surges but does not cover repairs due to normal wear or deferred maintenance. JJC Electric provides detailed documentation for Fort Collins homeowners filing insurance claims for covered electrical damage.
