Know your Fort Worth house

Village Creek is the city's main wastewater plant. Sundance Square is the heart of Downtown.

Fairmount is one of the largest historic districts in the Southwest, full of early 1900s homes. Older basements and garages tend to be short on outlets, so extension cords end up doing permanent work for freezers and tools. That's worth fixing properly. Ryan Place has many 1910s and 1920s homes.

Long cooling seasons push AC circuits hard, and that's when loose connections and aging panels show their limits. Spring storms bring hail and high winds.

Common reasons for a call

Who handles what in Fort Worth

Before anyone opens a panel, ask for the electrician's license details and check them yourself. Texas licenses electricians through TDLR, the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, and licenses can be checked online. New service or meter work in Fort Worth involves Oncor, which delivers power for the retail electric provider you choose as well as the City of Fort Worth Development Services department.

Permit questions go to the City of Fort Worth Development Services department. Fort Worth Water treats water from area lakes, including Eagle Mountain Lake, Lake Worth and Lake Benbrook. The Fort Worth Stockyards hold a cattle drive twice a day. The Trinity River runs through the city near Downtown.

Before the visit

Note the brand of your panel if the label is readable, since some older panels are handled differently.

Think about the best times for access, especially if you share a driveway or gate.

What people ask us

Are two-prong outlets unsafe?

They are ungrounded, which matters for computers and appliances with three-prong plugs. An electrician can add grounding or install GFCI protection as an allowed alternative.

Do you cover Near Southside and Tanglewood?

We look for independent pros across Fort Worth, including Near Southside, Alliance, Westover Hills and Ryan Place, and ZIP codes 76040, 76052, 76053, 76102, 76103 and others. If nobody's available, we'll tell you. If you're close to a ZIP code line, mention your cross street when you call.

Should I get a whole-house surge protector?

It's a reasonable add-on if storms or utility surges are common where you live. It works best alongside plug-in protectors for sensitive electronics.

Do I need a permit for an EV charger?

In most places, a new 240-volt circuit for a charger does need a permit. The electrician can tell you what your city requires and handle the paperwork.

Can I install an EV charger at home?

Often, yes. A Level 2 charger usually needs a dedicated 240-volt circuit, and an electrician will check whether your panel has room.

Keep pets in another room while the pro works.
