Residential Electrical Repairs & Troubleshooting

Electrical problems can range from inconvenient to potentially dangerous. If breakers keep tripping, outlets stop working, lights flicker, or something simply doesn't seem right, our electricians can help determine what's causing the problem.

Tanner Electric provides residential electrical repair and troubleshooting for homes throughout Northern Michigan. We'll identify the source of the problem, explain what needs to be corrected, and make the necessary repairs to get your electrical system working safely and reliably.

For electrical problems that require immediate attention, we also provide emergency electrical services.

New Construction, Additions & Home Remodeling

Building or remodeling a home is an opportunity to make sure your electrical system works for the way you actually live.

Tanner Electric provides new construction electrical wiring as well as electrical work for home additions, kitchens, bathrooms, finished basements, garages, and other remodeling projects.

We work with homeowners and contractors throughout the construction process, from rough-in through final fixture installation. We'll also help you think ahead about outlet placement, lighting, appliances, EV charging, generators, workshops, and other future electrical needs.

Electrical Panel & Service Upgrades

Older electrical systems weren't designed around the number of appliances and electrical devices found in today's homes.

If you're running out of breaker spaces, adding high-demand equipment, renovating your home, or dealing with an outdated electrical system, Tanner Electric can evaluate your existing panel and electrical service.

We provide electrical panel upgrades and service upgrades, including 100, 200, and 400 amp electrical services when appropriate for the property.

Rather than assuming you need a larger service, we'll evaluate your electrical load and determine what your home actually needs.

Lighting, Ceiling Fans & Electrical Fixtures

New lighting can make a significant difference in both the appearance and functionality of your home.

Our electricians install and replace:

• Ceiling fans
• Chandeliers
• Pendant lights
• Recessed lighting
• LED fixtures
• Kitchen and bathroom lighting
• Wall sconces
• Dimmer switches
• Exterior and security lighting
• Garage and workshop lighting

We can replace existing fixtures or install the wiring, switches, and electrical boxes needed to add lighting in a new location.

Residential EV Charger Installation

Charging an electric vehicle at home is considerably more convenient when you have a dedicated home charging setup.

Tanner Electric provides residential Level 2 EV charger installation throughout Northern Michigan, including dedicated 240-volt circuits, hardwired chargers, EV charging outlets, and garage or outdoor installations.

We'll also evaluate your electrical panel and available capacity to determine whether any additional electrical upgrades are needed before installing your charger.

Generac Home Standby Generators

Northern Michigan weather can leave homes without electricity when they need it most. A permanently installed standby generator can automatically provide backup power when utility service goes down.

As an Authorized Generac Dealer, Tanner Electric provides residential Generac generator sales, installation, maintenance, and service. We'll help determine the appropriate generator for your home and the equipment you want to keep running during an outage.

Garages, Pole Barns & Barndominiums

Residential electrical work doesn't stop at the house.

Tanner Electric provides complete electrical wiring for detached garages, pole barns, workshops, outbuildings, and barndominiums throughout Northern Michigan.

We can install electrical services and subpanels, lighting, outlets, 240-volt circuits, workshop equipment circuits, EV charger wiring, heating circuits, and other electrical systems based on how you plan to use the building.

Planning for Your Home's Future Electrical Needs

A good electrical system should work for your home today while leaving room for what you may want to add tomorrow.

If you're already planning electrical work, let us know about future projects you may be considering, such as:

• An electric vehicle
• A standby generator
• A hot tub
• A garage or workshop
• A home addition
• New appliances
• Outdoor living spaces
• Additional heating or cooling equipment

Planning for these electrical loads now can make future projects easier and potentially save you from unnecessary upgrades later.
