Electrician in
Cross Roads, TX
Cross Roads is one of the few places we work where the town itself lists four different electricity providers. Before quoting anything that touches the service, we find out which one is actually yours.
Four Providers Serve This Area
The Town of Cross Roads lists four electricity providers for the area on its own utilities page. That is unusual, and it is the single most practical thing to establish before any work involving the incoming supply.
CoServ
An electric cooperative covering eight counties in North Texas, headquartered in Corinth, with close to 500,000 combined electric and gas meters. Listed by the town on 1-800-274-4014.
Oncor
Listed by the town on 1-888-313-6862. Oncor is the network rather than a retailer — where it owns the poles and the meter at your address, the company that bills you for energy is a separate business again.
TXU Energy and TNMP
Also listed by the town for this area — TXU Energy on 1-800-242-9113 and Texas-New Mexico Power on 972-420-4189. Which applies to a given address is not something to assume.
So the first question we ask here is simply: what does your bill say? On an inside job it changes nothing. On a panel replacement, a new service or anything needing a disconnect, it changes who we book and how long it takes.
Permits & Inspection
Confirming Who Permits Your Address
Around Cross Roads, whether work falls to the town or to Denton County depends on exactly where the property sits. The town’s own information points to a Denton County building on FM 424 locally, and we confirm the right authority for your address before starting rather than assuming.
Either way, the work is carried out under our licence and we want new circuits, panel work and anything feeding an outbuilding permitted and inspected. On rural and semi-rural property those are the jobs where unlicensed work causes the most damage.

What We Are Called Out For In Cross Roads
Properties here tend to sit on more land than the suburbs to the south, so the work leans towards distance, outbuildings and capacity rather than tight indoor retrofits.
Electrical Panels
Main panels and sub-panels to shops, barns and detached garages. Any work needing a disconnect starts with establishing which of the four providers serves you.
Wiring & Outlets
Outbuilding power, gate and drive circuits, pump feeds and garden power, with cable sized for the run rather than for the price list.
Fault Finding
Longer runs, buried cable and outbuildings give faults more places to hide. We test and trace rather than replacing the obvious component first.
EV Chargers
Level 2 installation, often in a detached garage, which makes the feed to the building as much of a question as the charger itself.
Home Lighting
Drive, gate and yard lighting that stands up to weather, plus interior lighting where the original specification was thin.
Ceiling Fans
Porch, patio and high-ceiling fans on rated boxes with proper bracing, damp-rated where the position needs it.
Smart Switches
Gate, yard and outbuilding control operable from the house, commissioned so it works rather than left part-configured.
Data Wiring
Cat6 out to a shop or guest building, run within its distance limits rather than hopefully beyond them.
Work We Can Show You
City new builds rather than acreage jobs. What carries across is the groundwork: correct feeds and grounding established before anything is closed up.
Wired and labelled before the walls went on
Fitted, commissioned and tested
Distribution inside a finished property

Cross Roads Questions
Why would four companies serve one small area?
Utility territory in this part of Denton County was drawn long before the current development, and the boundaries do not follow the roads. The Town of Cross Roads lists CoServ, Oncor, TXU Energy and Texas-New Mexico Power on its own utilities page, which tells you how patchworked it is. Your bill settles your address.
Does it actually matter which one I am on?
For work inside the house, no. For a panel replacement, a new service, a meter move or anything needing the power dropped, very much — it decides who has to attend and how long the lead time is. That is why we ask before quoting.
Am I in the town or the county for permits?
That depends on exactly where the property sits, and around Cross Roads the boundary is not always where people assume. We confirm it for your address before any work starts.
Can you get power out to a barn or shop?
Yes, and the cable size is the heart of the job. A long undersized run loses voltage, which is why heavy tools trip out at the far end. Usually the right answer is a properly sized feed to a sub-panel in the building.
Do you travel out to Cross Roads?
Yes — we are based in Frisco and cover Denton County routinely. Call Alex on +1 503 380 0024 and he will tell you honestly whether it is a job for us.
