Wiring & Rewiring

Whether you're building new construction, renovating an older home, or adding a circuit for a kitchen remodel or pool pump, proper wiring matters even more in Guanacaste's heat and humidity. We install and replace wiring to code, using materials rated for tropical conditions.

Our electricians cover Tamarindo, Flamingo, Playa del Coco, Nosara, Potrero, and everywhere in between. We give you an honest assessment and a clear quote before any work begins — no guesswork, no surprise add-ons.

We wire:

✓ New construction homes and additions
✓ Kitchen, bathroom, and pool circuits
✓ Outdoor and landscape lighting
✓ Old or unsafe wiring replacement
✓ Vacation rental and commercial buildouts

Panel Service

Panel Upgrades

An undersized or outdated electrical panel is one of the most common issues we find in Guanacaste homes — especially older properties retrofitted with modern AC units, pool pumps, and kitchen appliances. Tripping breakers, warm panel covers, or a panel that's simply too small for your home's demand are all signs it's time for an upgrade.

We assess your current panel, recommend the right capacity for your property, and handle the full upgrade safely — including coordination with ICE where required for service changes.

Capacity Upgrades

Moving from an undersized panel to one that handles your full electrical load.

Breaker Replacement

Swap out worn or failing breakers that trip without cause.

Sub-Panel Installs

Add a sub-panel for a guesthouse, workshop, or new addition.

Grounding & Bonding

Proper grounding is critical in humid, storm-prone climates — we verify and correct it.

Outage Repairs

Power Outage Diagnosis & Repair

Guanacaste sees frequent outages during rainy season — downed lines, transformer issues, and storm damage are common. When the power goes out, the first question is always: is it the property, or is it ICE? We diagnose the source quickly, fix what's on your side of the meter, and tell you clearly if the issue requires a utility company repair.

For vacation rentals and businesses, prolonged outages mean lost bookings and spoiled inventory. We prioritize urgent calls and work to get you back online fast.

Surge Protection

Surge Protection for Tropical Storms

Lightning strikes and grid fluctuations during Guanacaste's rainy season (May–November) regularly damage refrigerators, TVs, routers, and AC compressors. A whole-home surge protector installed at your panel absorbs these spikes before they reach your appliances — a small investment that prevents expensive replacements.

Whole-Home Protection

Panel-mounted surge protectors that shield your entire electrical system.

Point-of-Use Protection

Targeted surge protection for sensitive electronics, routers, and entertainment systems.

Lightning Risk Assessment

We evaluate your property's exposure and recommend the right level of protection.

Appliance Safeguarding

Protect AC units, refrigerators, pumps, and other high-value equipment.

Backup Power

Generator Hookups

For property owners tired of losing power during storms, we size, install, and wire backup generators — including transfer switch installation so your generator kicks in safely without backfeeding the grid. We work with portable and standby generator setups suited to homes and vacation rentals.

Safety & Compliance

Electrical Inspections

Buying a property, renting it out, or just want peace of mind? We inspect wiring, panels, grounding, and outlets to flag hazards before they become costly problems — especially important for older homes or properties that have been through multiple renovations.

Common Questions

Electrician FAQ — Guanacaste

How fast can you get to me in Guanacaste?

Response time varies by location, but we always give you an honest ETA when you call. For most areas in coastal Guanacaste — Tamarindo, Flamingo, Coco, Nosara — we aim to be with you the same day for urgent issues. Inland areas like Liberia or Nicoya are also covered.

Is the outage from my property or from ICE?

We diagnose this quickly. If the issue is on the utility side, we'll tell you clearly and help you understand next steps. If it's a problem with your panel, wiring, or a tripped breaker, we fix it on the spot.

Do I need a surge protector if I already have a generator?

Yes. A generator handles outages, but a surge protector handles voltage spikes from lightning and grid fluctuations — a different and very common problem during rainy season. Most properties benefit from both.

Can you upgrade my panel without a full home rewire?

In most cases, yes. Panel upgrades are typically independent of the rest of your home's wiring unless we find unsafe conditions during the assessment, which we'll always flag and explain before proceeding.

Do you accept credit cards?

Yes. We accept SINPE Móvil. We also accept US dollars and colones in cash.

Can I contact you in English?

Absolutely. All communication — phone, WhatsApp, and message — can be handled entirely in English. We work with expats and tourists throughout Guanacaste every day.
