Newton's mix of character — historic homes near downtown, newer builds spreading out toward the edges of town — means no two electrical jobs here look quite the same. An older home might need a full panel upgrade to safely handle a modern kitchen. A newer one might just need a stubborn breaker sorted out. Stickler's Electrical Service has worked on both.
As the Catawba County seat, Newton sees a lot of activity, and a lot of homeowners who don't have time to sit around waiting on an electrician who might show up. We show up, we diagnose the real problem — not just the symptom — and we explain what we're doing before we do it.

Many of the homes around Newton are older, and last year we completed a full rewire on one of them. The house was built in 1940 and was a little over 2,000 square feet. It still had its original fuse panel, and the homeowner wanted the whole electrical system brought up to date and up to code.
The family stayed in the house the whole time, so we planned the work around them. We worked through a couple of rooms at a time and made sure the electrical system was working for them every night before we left. When we finished each day, a cleaner came in so there was no trace that we had been there.
We also finished the job without cutting any additional holes in the drywall, so the homeowner did not have patching or painting to deal with afterward.
From start to finish the rewire took one week. Permits were pulled and the work passed inspection. If your Newton home still has a fuse panel or aging wiring, learn more about circuits and wiring and panel upgrades, or call (828) 610-1894.
Licensed, insured, and local — no call center, no runaround, just the electrician who's actually coming to your door. Have questions first? See our electrician FAQ or panel upgrade costs.
