A breaker that keeps tripping. A remodel that needs new circuits. An EV charger or generator that has to work with your home’s electrical system. McCarthy Electric & Technologies helps you move from the problem or plan to the right next step, with electrical services for homes and businesses across Snohomish and King counties.
From restoring a failed circuit to wiring an entire addition, every project starts with a different question. Browse the complete service list below, or filter by the kind of work you’re planning. Each card explains when that service is useful and links to its dedicated page.
Frequent breaker trips, a deteriorating panel, or plans for a major new appliance can signal that it is time to evaluate your electrical distribution. We help determine whether the issue calls for a repair, a replacement, or a capacity upgrade rather than assuming every home needs a bigger panel.
Breakers trip repeatedly or you’re adding a major electrical load.
Want more insight into how your home uses electricity? Compatible smart panels such as SPAN can provide circuit-level monitoring and flexible load control. We help you understand the equipment, installation conditions, and compatibility with future EV or battery plans.
You want insight and control beyond a conventional breaker panel.
You should be able to plug in at home without guessing whether your electrical system can support the charger. We review parking position, panel capacity, circuit requirements, and equipment compatibility to help plan practical EV charging for homes and qualifying commercial properties.
You’re bringing an EV home or need a safer, more convenient charging arrangement.
A windstorm outage can interrupt refrigeration, heating controls, lighting, and other essentials. We help identify what you need to keep running, then discuss standby or portable-generator electrical connections and safe transfer arrangements appropriate for the property.
You want a defined backup-power plan before the next outage.
Battery backup can support selected circuits without running a fuel-powered generator. The right installation depends on the electrical panel, equipment, desired loads, and available storage capacity. We help evaluate how battery systems can fit into a home’s overall power plan.
You want stored electricity for prioritized loads during utility interruptions.
Dead outlets, buzzing equipment, flickering lights, or a breaker that will not stay reset are symptoms, not diagnoses. Our electricians investigate the affected circuits and equipment to identify the source of trouble before discussing an appropriate repair.
A recurring problem affects power, lighting, or everyday use.
Renovations change how people use a space and where electrical power is needed. From early planning through finishing work, we coordinate circuit layouts, power requirements, and lighting so the electrical work supports the completed kitchen, addition, or living area.
You are planning a renovation that changes walls, rooms, or electrical loads.
A brighter kitchen or more functional bathroom depends on far more than attractive fixtures. Countertop appliances, bathroom receptacles, ventilation, and layered lighting all have electrical requirements. We plan circuits and device locations around how these rooms are actually used.
Your kitchen or bath remodel is moving from design to construction.
A whole-home remodel or new addition reaches beyond one room. As layouts and equipment change, the electrical plan may need new circuits, updated distribution, and coordinated rough-in work. We help organize these decisions before finishes conceal the wiring.
Your project affects multiple rooms or adds new living space.
When wiring no longer suits a home’s condition or everyday needs, some rooms may need new circuits while others remain serviceable. We assess the affected areas and help explain the scope, access, and practical differences between a partial rewire and a complete update.
Outdated wiring or a major renovation makes circuit updates necessary.
Older homes can still contain knob-and-tube wiring, especially in unfinished spaces or walls that have not been remodeled. Its condition and limitations matter when adding insulation or modern loads. We help evaluate affected circuits and plan replacement appropriate to the home.
An inspection or remodeling project reveals older knob-and-tube wiring.
Electric baseboard, wall, and radiant-floor systems depend on suitable branch circuits and controls. Whether you are updating a room or planning a heated floor, we coordinate the electrical side with the specified heating equipment and the home’s available capacity.
Your space needs electric heat or a heating control upgrade.
The right lighting changes how a room feels and functions. We help bring plans for recessed lighting, kitchen task lighting, outdoor paths, and other fixtures together with thoughtful placement, switching, and electrical connections.
Your current lighting falls short for work, comfort, or visibility.
A pool pump, a well system, or a dedicated appliance may need more specialized wiring than everyday outlets and lights. We help address equipment-specific electrical requirements, protective devices, and inspection considerations for these less-common installations.
Your project involves equipment with dedicated electrical requirements.
Reliable internet and media systems begin with sensible cable routes, not extra adapters after the walls are finished. We help plan low-voltage connections for home networks, communication systems, and audio/video applications, particularly during remodels and new construction.
You need hardwired connectivity or are remodeling before finishes go in.
Lightning is not the only source of voltage surges. Utility switching and equipment events can also produce brief spikes. A properly selected surge protective device at the electrical system can help reduce their effects; we discuss compatibility and installation placement.
A home renovation and a business electrical upgrade can both involve new circuits, but the questions, scheduling, and equipment often differ. Choose the path that fits your property.
When your home needs more dependable circuits, charging capacity, updated wiring, or more useful lighting, you want to know what the project involves and how it affects your household.
Electrical issues at a business can affect lighting, equipment, and day-to-day operations. Our commercial work considers the property’s electrical demands, the work scope, and practical coordination.
Service descriptions explain what we do. Actual project photographs and project stories help show how that work takes shape.

Meet Patrick, Ryann, and the McCarthy team
You should not have to guess what comes after your first message. Here is how we move from an electrical concern or project idea toward the work itself.
Share the service address, the electrical problem or project goal, and any planned equipment. For urgent concerns, call to discuss availability rather than relying on a form.
We discuss the existing setup and the work involved. Some jobs need an on-site evaluation before the estimate or next steps can be confirmed.
Once you approve the scope, our electricians coordinate the work and discuss applicable permits, inspection steps, and project completion.
McCarthy publishes a target of responding to online requests within 24 hours; submitting a form does not confirm an appointment.
Start with what you are experiencing or planning. For example, repeated breaker trips point toward troubleshooting, while a new EV or remodel may require circuit and capacity planning. Our team can help identify the right starting point when you contact us.
Not necessarily. The answer depends on your existing electrical service, current loads, and the proposed equipment. A load assessment can help determine whether a dedicated circuit, load-management solution, or panel change is appropriate.
Yes. McCarthy publishes both residential and commercial service offerings. Contact our team to confirm that your specific business or household project falls within our scope and current schedule.
Yes. We provide information and installation services for standby and portable generator connections, home battery backup, and compatible smart electrical panels. The right option depends on the power needs you want to address.
Tell us your address, the kind of work you are considering, and any symptoms or equipment information you have. McCarthy advertises free estimates; ask the team what assessment, visit, and scheduling steps apply to your particular project.
