Had Wallace Electric came out today to check out possible circuit breaker replacement. Worked with Joshua who was very knowledgeable, professional and kind. He was willing to work on pricing but more importantly gave several options to choose from. I felt he was honest and straightforward without pushing service replacement. I highly recommend this company.

Jacob Kellar

We hired this electrician for our breaker panel replacement in Dallas after buying an older home. The existing panel wasn’t up to code and couldn’t support the modern appliances that got installed by the previous owner. They installed a new electrical service panel, whole home surge protection & hosted a city inspection. He explained everything very clearly. If you’re in need of a home electrical panel upgrade, I highly recommend them. The work was clean, efficient and the whole process was stress-free. Great experience from start to finish thanks guys!

Charese Z

Wallace Electric replaced some lighting fixtures as well as hung new ones for me at a reasonable price. They were able to come out the day after our estimate and even being behind schedule, were still able to finish the job. Everything looks exactly as I hoped. Highly recommend this family business.

Art Lopez
March 11, 2026

These guys are awesome - I was painting for a customer and removed the can lights to remove popcorn texture, however they required some adjustment because of the new ceiling height. Wallace was hired by the customer to do other light renovations and so I asked them if they could add on a small scope. I know this was a big ask because it's always difficult to change your scope of work especially late at night as they were ( the customer was moving in the next day and working hard to add extra touches). But their service was awesome and obviously very skilled because the modification was quick and professional and the customer loved the seamless service. I also found the prices very affordable and would continue to do business with them.

Seth did an awesome job installing two ceiling fans. He did a great job of answering other questions I asked him. He was very friendly and respectful. He wired a Blink doorbell for free. Other companies where charging me $50 to connect two wires. I definitely would recommend using them and I will use them again if I need additional service.

William Evans

I cannot say enough how great Wallace electric is, they came very fast at 10pm at night, we had an emergency and lost power in all outlets and lights. They had everything up and running in no time. Great attitudes, very smart, highly knowledgeable, nice guys. I will be using them in the future 110%, this is the type of company that is a gem and I very highly recommend them. They let u know all pricing up front, no hidden fees, answered all my questions, gave quotes for future projects.

I was having some built in shelves installed that required an outlet. Caleb came recommended from my installer. Caleb set up an appointment and came out that next week. Caleb and his partner came on time and got right to work. They were absolutely great to work with. They were professional and treated my home with respect. The outlet was installed to the exact specifications that was needed by the installer. After they were done they made sure everything was I working order and then cleaned up. I was highly impressed. I will definitely be using his services again and will recommend him to my friends and family.

Whole House Surge Protection Service

Modern homes today are filled with all kinds of sensitive electronics and appliances that a single power surge can damage or even completely destroy in a single instant. Whole house surge protection installs right at your main electrical panel to guard everything in your home against the power surges that travel through your wiring. Wallace Electric proudly provides professional whole house surge protection for homes of all kinds throughout Burleson and the surrounding communities we serve. A surge protective device at the panel stops the surges before they can ever reach your appliances, electronics, and home circuits. Power surges come from many different sources, including nearby lightning strikes, routine utility switching, and even large appliances cycling on and off. The damage from a surge can be sudden and total, or it can be a gradual kind of wear that slowly shortens the working life of your devices. Our licensed electricians install whole house surge protection that defends your entire home all at one single time. They install the surge protective device right at your main panel, which is the one place where it is able to protect every single circuit in the home. Every part of the installation always closely follows the National Electrical Code for safe and reliable protection. Properly installed surge protection guards all of your valuable equipment and gives you genuine, lasting peace of mind.

Power surges are honestly far more common in the average home than most homeowners ever realize. A power surge is simply a sudden, sharp spike in voltage that travels right through your home’s electrical system. Lightning is by far the most dramatic source of them all, since it is capable of sending a massive surge straight through your wiring. Utility switching and various other grid events can also send sizable surges into your home from the outside. Large appliances like air conditioners, refrigerators, and even pool pumps all create small surges every time they cycle on and off. These small internal surges can happen many times every single day right inside your own home. Each individual surge, large or small, can gradually damage the sensitive electronics found inside all your devices. Over time, these repeated small surges will slowly wear down and shorten the working life of your equipment. A single large power surge can suddenly destroy thousands of dollars worth of electronics and appliances in an instant. This is exactly why good protection against power surges is so very important for any modern home.

Whole house surge protection works by installing one dedicated surge protective device right at your main electrical panel. This device then constantly monitors all the voltage coming into your home all around the clock. The very moment it detects an incoming surge, it quickly diverts all that excess voltage safely to ground. This all happens almost instantly, well before the surge has any chance to reach your circuits and connected devices. The surge protective device then quietly protects every single circuit throughout your home all at once. This is the one key advantage it holds over the plug in surge protectors that can only guard a single outlet. A single panel mounted device defends your entire home from one convenient, central location. It guards all of your large appliances, your whole HVAC system, and all your hardwired devices. It also provides that all important first layer of defense for your most sensitive electronics. This kind of whole home approach is genuinely the very foundation of complete, reliable surge protection.

A properly layered approach is really what gives your home the very best possible surge protection. Whole house surge protection at the main panel is truly the essential first layer of any good home defense. It actually stops the largest surges right at the panel before they can ever even enter your home’s wiring. Point of use surge protectors then add an important second layer of defense right at your sensitive electronics. These small plug in protectors then catch any of the smaller surges that get past the very first layer. Together, these two layers work together to provide truly comprehensive protection for your whole home. The whole house device handles all of the big surges that would otherwise badly damage your appliances. The point of use protectors then help fine tune all the protection for your most delicate and costly electronics. We can also help you build this layered defense to give you genuinely complete peace of mind. This kind of layered combination is truly the gold standard for protecting any modern home today.

Whole house surge protection guards a genuinely surprising amount of expensive, valuable equipment all throughout the home. Your HVAC system alone represents a major investment that one single power surge could damage quite badly. Modern appliances all contain sensitive electronic control boards that power surges can easily ruin. Your refrigerator, your washer, your dryer, and your oven all rely heavily on electronic control boards now. Smart home devices, security systems, and smart thermostats are all genuinely vulnerable to power surges. Computers, televisions, and whole home entertainment systems can all be destroyed in a single instant. The total combined value of all the electronics and appliances in a modern home is genuinely significant. A single bad surge event could very easily cost you thousands of dollars in damaged equipment. Whole house surge protection is genuinely quite inexpensive when compared to that potential loss. This protection is honestly one of the single smartest investments you can make in your home.

Installing whole house surge protection is definitely a job best left to a qualified and licensed electrician. The surge protective device installs right at your main electrical panel and connects directly into your system. This work involves your main electrical panel, which always carries dangerous levels of electricity. A licensed electrician then installs the device both safely and correctly to the code. They carefully size and then select exactly the right surge protective device for your particular home and its needs. They connect it up properly so that it provides the exact protection it was designed to provide. They always make sure that the entire installation fully meets the National Electrical Code. Our electricians handle the entire installation quickly, safely, and very cleanly for you every time. We then carefully test the installation to confirm that everything is working correctly. This kind of careful professional installation ensures your surge protection works exactly when you need it most.

Choosing Wallace Electric for your whole house surge protection means choosing real expertise, lasting safety, and genuine personal care. We are a proudly family owned and operated local company with deep roots in the Burleson community we serve. Every single technician that we send out is licensed, background checked, and drug tested for your complete peace of mind. We work cleanly, carefully respect your home, and always leave the work area exactly as we found it the moment we finish.

The Importance of a Licensed Electrician for Whole House Surge Protection in Burleson, TX

Whole house surge protection installs at your main panel, so it deserves a licensed electrician. The main panel carries dangerous levels of electricity that require professional handling. In Texas, electrical licensing is regulated by the state to protect homeowners from unqualified work. A licensed electrician installs the surge protective device safely and to code. They select the right device sized for your home and electrical system. They connect it properly so it provides the protection it is designed for. They know the code requirements for surge protective devices. They make sure the installation is safe and reliable. A licensed electrician also carries insurance that protects you if something goes wrong. An improperly installed device may fail to protect your home. Work inside the main panel is dangerous and not a do it yourself job. Wallace Electric sends only licensed, background checked technicians to every surge protection installation, so the work is always done right.

Commonly Asked Whole House Surge Protection Questions

Whole house surge protection raises several practical questions about cost, how it works, and what it protects. The answers below address the topics homeowners across Burleson ask us about most often.

The cost of whole house surge protection is reasonable for the protection it provides. The surge protective device itself is the main material cost. The labor reflects the work of installing it at your panel. The installation is usually completed quickly by a licensed electrician. The exact cost depends on the device and your electrical panel. A higher rated device offers more protection and may cost more. Adding point of use protectors for a layered defense adds to the cost. Because every home differs, Wallace Electric provides a clear written quote before any work begins.

The value of surge protection makes it a smart investment. The cost is small compared to the equipment it protects. A single surge could destroy thousands in electronics and appliances. The protection guards your entire home from a single device. This makes the cost very reasonable for the peace of mind. The protection works around the clock once installed. It is one of the most cost effective upgrades for a home. The investment pays for itself if it prevents even one surge event.

The most accurate way to learn your cost is to have a licensed electrician evaluate your home. We assess your electrical panel and your protection needs. We recommend the right surge protective device for your home. From there, we build a transparent estimate that lists each part of the work clearly. You will know exactly what you are paying for before we begin. We never add hidden charges once the job is underway. This honest approach has earned the trust of homeowners throughout Burleson. Call Wallace Electric today for an accurate surge protection quote.

Whole house surge protection works from your electrical panel. A surge protective device is installed at the panel. It monitors the voltage coming into your home constantly. When it detects a surge, it diverts the excess voltage to ground. This happens almost instantly, before the surge reaches your circuits. The device protects every circuit in your home at once. This guards your appliances, electronics, and hardwired devices. The whole home is protected from a single location.

The device works by responding to dangerous voltage spikes. Normal voltage passes through without any interference. When a surge spikes the voltage, the device activates. It safely channels the excess energy away to ground. This keeps the surge from reaching your devices. The response is fast enough to stop the surge in time. This protects your equipment from damage. The device returns to monitoring once the surge passes.

Our electricians install the device to work reliably. We install it at your panel and connect it correctly. We size it to handle the surges your home may face. We make sure it diverts surges safely to ground. We test it to confirm it works correctly. We install everything to the National Electrical Code. This gives your home reliable, whole home protection. For whole house surge protection, contact the team at Wallace Electric.

Point of use surge protectors are still recommended even with whole house protection. The two work together as a layered defense. Whole house protection stops the large surges at the panel. Point of use protectors catch smaller surges that get past it. This layered approach gives the most complete protection. Your most sensitive electronics benefit from both layers. The whole house device handles the big threats. The point of use protectors fine tune the protection.

A layered defense is the gold standard for surge protection. The whole house device is the essential first layer. It guards your entire home, including hardwired devices. The point of use protectors are the second layer. They guard delicate electronics like computers and televisions. Together, they catch surges of all sizes. This combination protects your home thoroughly. Relying on just one layer leaves some gaps.

Our electricians help you build a complete, layered defense. We install the whole house device at your panel. We recommend point of use protectors for sensitive electronics. We explain how the two layers work together. We help you protect your most valuable equipment. This gives you the most complete protection available. This layered approach is well worth it. For complete surge protection, contact the team at Wallace Electric.

Power surges come from both outside and inside your home. Lightning is the most dramatic outside source of surges. A lightning strike can send a massive surge through your wiring. Utility switching and grid events also cause surges from outside. Inside the home, large appliances cause smaller surges. Air conditioners, refrigerators, and similar appliances surge when they cycle. These internal surges happen many times every day. Both outside and inside surges can damage your equipment.

The internal surges are more frequent than many realize. Every time a large appliance turns on or off, it can cause a surge. These small surges happen constantly throughout the day. While each one is small, they add up over time. They gradually wear down your sensitive electronics. The cumulative effect shortens the life of your equipment. This is why protection against all surges matters. It guards against both the dramatic and the everyday surges.

Our electricians install protection against all types of surges. The whole house device guards against large outside surges. It also helps with the internal surges from appliances. The point of use protectors add another layer for electronics. Together, they guard against surges of every kind. We install everything to protect your home thoroughly. This gives you protection from all surge sources. For complete surge protection, contact the team at Wallace Electric.

Whole house surge protection helps with lightning related surges, but with limits. The device is designed to handle surges, including those from nearby lightning. It diverts the excess voltage from a lightning surge to ground. This protects your equipment from many lightning related surges. However, a direct lightning strike to your home is extremely powerful. No surge protector can fully stop a direct strike on the home. The device handles the surges that travel through the wiring. This covers the majority of lightning related threats.

The distinction is between a direct strike and a surge. A direct lightning strike on your home is rare but devastating. The far more common threat is a surge from a nearby strike. Lightning that strikes nearby sends surges through the power lines. These surges travel into your home through the wiring. The surge protective device is designed to handle these. This covers the most common lightning related damage. It greatly reduces the risk to your equipment.

Our electricians install surge protection to handle lightning surges. We install a quality device rated to handle large surges. It guards against the surges that travel through your wiring. This covers the most common lightning related threats. We explain what the protection does and does not cover. We help you protect your home as fully as possible. This greatly reduces your risk from lightning surges. For lightning surge protection, contact the team at Wallace Electric.

A whole house surge protector lasts for years but not forever. The device absorbs and diverts surges over its lifetime. Each surge it handles uses up some of its capacity. Over many years, the device gradually wears down. A large surge event can also reduce its remaining life. Most devices have an indicator that shows they are still working. When the device wears out, it should be replaced. A licensed electrician can check and replace it as needed.

The lifespan depends on how many surges the device handles. A home with frequent surges may wear the device faster. A home with fewer surges may keep it longer. Most quality devices last many years under normal conditions. The indicator light shows whether the device is still protecting. When the light changes, it is time for replacement. Checking it periodically ensures continued protection. This keeps your home protected over time.

Our electricians install quality devices and can check them later. We install a device built to last under normal conditions. We show you the indicator that shows it is working. We can check the device during other electrical work. We replace it when it has worn out. We make sure your home stays protected over time. This keeps your surge protection reliable for years. For surge protector service, contact the team at Wallace Electric.

Whole house surge protection guards your entire home from surges. It protects your large appliances like the HVAC system. It guards your refrigerator, washer, dryer, and oven. These appliances rely on electronic controls that surges can ruin. It protects your hardwired devices throughout the home. It provides the first layer of defense for your electronics. It guards smart home devices, security systems, and thermostats. The whole home is protected from a single device at the panel.

The protection covers a surprising amount of valuable equipment. Modern homes are full of sensitive electronics and appliances. Nearly everything now contains electronic controls that surges can damage. The total value of this equipment is significant. A single surge could cost thousands in damage. Whole house protection guards all of it at once. This makes it a smart and cost effective investment. It protects your investment in your home’s equipment.

Our electricians install protection for your whole home. We install the device at your panel to guard every circuit. This protects your appliances, electronics, and hardwired devices. We can add point of use protectors for sensitive electronics. We make sure your valuable equipment is protected. We explain what the protection covers. This gives you comprehensive protection for your home. For whole home surge protection, contact the team at Wallace Electric.

Whether a permit is needed depends on your local requirements. Installing a surge protective device at the panel is electrical work. Cities around Burleson, including those in Tarrant and Johnson counties, set these requirements. Some jurisdictions require a permit for this work. A permit triggers an inspection that confirms the work meets the code. This process protects you and your home. A licensed electrician knows whether your project requires a permit. We determine the requirements before we begin the work.

The permit requirements vary by location and project. Work inside the main panel often involves permitting. We determine what your specific project requires. We handle the permitting process when it is needed. We pull the permit and schedule the inspection on your behalf. This ensures the work is documented and code compliant. That documentation is valuable for your home. We take care of this so you do not have to.
