Electrician in
Highland Village, TX
Highland Village is a small, established town with mature trees and a lot of lakeside frontage. Big trees and overhead services are a combination that generates its own kind of electrical work.
Which Utility Serves You Depends On The Street
Highland Village sits near the boundary between cooperative territory and the regulated wires network, so the answer is set by your address. It is worth knowing which, because after a storm it decides who you call.
Oncor
On the Oncor side of town, the service drop and meter are Oncor's. That is the line that decides, after a storm, whether a repair is theirs or yours — and it is worth knowing in advance.
CoServ
An electric cooperative headquartered in Corinth and serving eight counties in North Texas, with close to 500,000 electric and gas meters in total. Co-op supply works differently from the deregulated market — there is no retailer in between.
Where the damage is on the utility’s side of the meter, it is theirs to fix and we will tell you so rather than charging you to look at it. Where it is on your side — the mast, the cable into the house, the panel — that is our work.
Permits & Inspection
Permitted With The City, Inspected On Site
Electrical work in Highland Village is permitted by the city and inspected before sign-off. Storm repairs are no exception, and on a damaged service that inspection is worth having for the insurance file as well as for safety.
Buried landscape lighting and irrigation circuits installed over the years are a common find here, often added without a permit and increasingly damaged by root growth. We will tell you what is down there and what condition it is in.

What We Are Called Out For In Highland Village
Mature landscaping, established houses and weather account for most of what we are called out for in Highland Village — much of it outside rather than in.
Home Lighting
Landscape and tree lighting under a mature canopy, plus facade, drive and patio lighting built with the fittings, cable and transformers to survive being outdoors for years.
Fault Finding
Outdoor circuits fail for reasons indoor ones do not: root damage to a buried run, water in a box, a degraded gland. Repeated outdoor tripping has a cause and it can be found.
Electrical Panels
Established housing means panels and breakers that have been in service a long time, and services sized before anyone owned a car that needed charging.
Wiring & Outlets
Outdoor and patio outlets in wet-location enclosures with GFCI protection, plus irrigation and gate circuits repaired properly rather than patched.
EV Chargers
Level 2 on a dedicated circuit, with the panel capacity checked first — on an established house that check matters more than on a new one.
Ceiling Fans
Covered porches and patios in damp or wet-rated boxes as the position requires, and high interior ceilings with proper bracing.
Smart Switches
Outdoor lighting on schedules and scenes that hold through the seasons, commissioned rather than left to be figured out.
Data Wiring
Cat6 points and structured cabling in houses wired before home networks existed, run tidily and labelled.
Work We Can Show You

Highland Village Questions
A branch has brought down the cable to my house. Who fixes it?
It depends which side of the meter the damage is on. The service drop up to the meter belongs to the utility; the mast, the cable into the house and the panel are yours. We will look, tell you plainly which it is, and not charge you for work that is the utility’s to do.
Our landscape lighting keeps failing. Is it the fittings?
Sometimes, but just as often it is the cable, a connection or an undersized transformer. Under mature trees root growth and settlement also damage buried runs over time. Testing shows which, rather than replacing fittings repeatedly.
Can lighting be run under large established trees without damaging them?
Yes, with care over routing and depth, and by accepting that some routes are not worth taking. We would rather tell you that a position is a bad idea than cut through roots to make a drawing work.
We have had the same panel for twenty-five years. Is that a problem?
Not in itself. Condition, brand, grounding and spare capacity are what matter. We will open it, tell you what we actually see and let you decide — we are not going to recommend a replacement you do not need.
