"I called Jones electric and asked them to come out and check some problems we were having with our electrical. He came out and I wasn't home yet but my son was there. He checked our box and told us something that was wrong with it which was something we needed to take up with the power company. But this man came out and took his time to help us and he did not even charge me one dime. And my electrical was in bad shape and we still haven't got things fixed because we have to wait on the power company. But I think this man for coming out and checking what he did and telling us what he thought was wrong and doing it out of the kindness of his heart. God will bless. Jones electrical fourth day I've done for me. I'm very appreciative of it because I'm going through stage 4 cancer taking chemo and I'm really stressed out over a lot of things and he just really blessed me in a way that took stress off of me instead of adding anything to me. I would highly recommend Jones electrical to anyone"

"Bobby has always been my go to electrician. I manage several properties and he’s been on my speed dial at least 10 years now. He’s honest and knows all the ins and outs of any electrical issue you encounter. He’s quick to return calls and get you on the schedule as well. His number is always the one I give out when anyone needs a good honest electrician. Can’t say enough about him."

"Bob and his crew took care of some electrical problems with our first home purchase. It is a 100-year-old house and had various electrical issues due to both its age and past renovation work that was done poorly. Bobs team did an absolutely fantastic job getting everything sorted out and were open and transparent throughout the process, making it a stress-free process for us and giving me a huge dose of /feel good/ about the safety of the home we are moving into. I am a worrier and a perfectionist by nature, and this being my first home purchase turned those tendencies up to 11. I am sure they wished at times that I would just let them alone so they could get the job done, but all of my questions and concerns were met with open, honest, and kind spirited responses. So on top of the great work, they were just good people. I cannot recommend them highly enough."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Johnson City, TN

A whole-house surge protector blocks voltage spikes from lightning, grid issues, or even large appliances before they can fry your wiring or electronics. By diverting excess current at the main panel, it shields everything from your HVAC to your phone chargers and can extend the life of pricey appliances. Homeowners in storm-prone regions or with older panels see the biggest payoff, but any home that relies on sensitive electronics benefits.

Most whole-house surge protectors work for two to three years. Low-level spikes—too small to notice—hit your panel every day and slowly wear down the internal components. Once the unit’s capacity is depleted, it can’t prevent a larger surge, so plan to replace it on schedule (or sooner if a major lightning strike occurs) to keep your electronics and HVAC equipment safe.

A surge protector begins guarding your circuits the moment an electrician snaps it into place. Whether the spike originates from a nearby lightning strike or your fridge kicking on, the protector shunts the extra current to ground before it can reach outlets or hard-wired systems, such as your AC. That instant response is why a small upfront cost can save thousands in appliance repairs.

The unit mounts on or next to your main electrical panel. Type 1 models sit on the supply side, catching outside spikes before they hit the breaker. Type 2 devices snap inside the panel and tame surges that start within the house. Either way, placement at the panel lets the protector guard every circuit at once.

Plan to swap the device every three to five years—or sooner if you upgrade your panel, add high-demand appliances, or notice flickering lights and tripped breakers. Relying on a maze of power strips is another red flag that your current setup isn’t keeping up. Replacing the surge protector at these milestones keeps your electrical system on safe footing.
