Dunamis Electric has been handling electrical work in Katy and across Fort Bend County since 2013. Thirteen years of service calls, panel upgrades, wiring jobs, and emergency repairs have given us a deep understanding of what homes and businesses in this area actually need. We work with homeowners dealing with everyday electrical problems and with commercial clients who need reliable, code-compliant electrical service on a schedule that fits their operation. When you call us, you talk to the people who actually show up. Call this morning. Powered this afternoon. That's how we work.
Good electrical work isn't complicated, it's just done right, and it starts with an accurate diagnosis. Most calls we receive involve something that has gone wrong: a light that flickers without explanation, an outlet that stopped working, a breaker that trips every time a certain appliance runs, or wiring that smells warm when it shouldn't. These are not just annoyances. They are signs that something in the system needs attention.
When we arrive, we start by listening to what you've noticed and then we trace the problem to its source. We use proper diagnostic tools, not guesswork. Our goal is to understand exactly what is happening before we recommend any repair. That approach keeps the scope of work honest and keeps your costs predictable.
We handle the full range of residential and commercial electrical repairs: faulty wiring, loose connections, overloaded circuits, damaged outlets, switch failures, and panel issues that show up as nuisance tripping. We get to the bottom of the problem fast.
We do not patch symptoms. If a breaker keeps tripping, we find out why before we reset it. If an outlet is dead, we trace the circuit and confirm whether the issue is the device, the wiring, or something upstream.
GFCI and AFCI protection come up often in this work. Kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and outdoor circuits require GFCI-protected outlets under current code, and AFCI breakers are required in bedrooms and living areas in newer construction and many renovation projects. When we repair or replace outlets and circuits, we bring them up to where they need to be.
We've wired this area long enough to know what works, and we've also seen what happens when a home's electrical system can't keep up with how the house is actually being used. Many homes in Katy were built during periods of rapid growth, and some carry older panels or wiring that was fine for the load at the time but struggles with today's demands. More appliances, larger HVAC systems drawing heavier electrical loads, home offices, EV chargers, and whole-home backup generators all put real pressure on a system that was not designed with those things in mind.
We handle breaker panel repair and replacement, 100-amp to 200-amp service upgrades, and full electrical service upgrades when the incoming capacity needs to increase. Every panel job includes a proper load calculation so we know the new equipment is sized correctly for the home or building. Work performed by licensed electricians means the job is done to code, inspected, and documented. Your panel is in good hands with us.
Beyond the main panel, we install subpanels for detached garages, workshops, and additions. We run dedicated circuits for dryers, refrigerators, chest freezers, and other major appliances that need their own protected circuit. For older properties where the wiring itself has reached the end of its useful life, we do whole-home rewiring. That is a bigger project, but it is the right answer when the existing wiring is a safety concern.
We walk every customer through what the work involves, what it will cost, and what the result will look like before we start.
Scheduling a service call is simple, and so is the work itself when it is done by people who do it every day. Outlet and switch installation, GFCI and AFCI outlet upgrades, USB outlet installation, dimmer switches, and light switch replacement are all jobs we handle for both residential and commercial customers.
Lighting is a big part of what we do. Recessed LED lighting, pendant and fixture installation, under-cabinet lighting, and security lighting all fall within our scope. Outdoor lighting, motion sensor lights, and landscape lighting are common requests in this area, where outdoor living spaces and security lighting matter to most homeowners. We also wire and install ceiling fans throughout the house, including covered patio fans and exterior-rated fixtures.
For commercial clients, we handle office and retail lighting upgrades, parking lot and exterior lighting, and outlet and switch work across a range of property types. We take pride in the electrical work we leave behind, whether it's a single outlet replacement or a full lighting retrofit.
We make the fix and leave it tidy.
Two services have seen a sharp rise in demand across Fort Bend County over the past several years: home EV charger installation and backup generator hookups. Both come directly from how people in this area live and what they've learned from Texas storm seasons.
A Level 2 home EV charger needs a dedicated 240-volt circuit, and the panel has to have the capacity to support it. That is where the electrical work begins. We assess your current panel, determine whether you need a service upgrade or simply have open capacity, run the dedicated circuit to the garage or driveway location, and install the outlet or hardwired connection the charger requires.
The result is a safe, code-compliant EV charger circuit that charges your vehicle overnight without stressing the rest of the system. We work with the major charger brands and can advise on what your vehicle and your home's setup call for.
Fort Bend County residents know what a multi-day power outage feels like. Storm season brings real exposure to extended outages, and a properly wired backup generator is one of the most practical investments a homeowner or business owner can make.
We install manual and automatic transfer switches, wire standby generators to the home's electrical system, and make sure the connection is safe and code-compliant. A transfer switch isolates your home from the utility grid during an outage, which protects both your equipment and the utility workers restoring power to the line. Whole-home surge protection pairs naturally with generator installations, since power restoration after a storm can send voltage spikes through the system. We can install surge protection at the panel level during the same visit.
What sets our electricians apart is straightforward: we take the work seriously regardless of the size of the job or the type of property.
For homeowners, that means electrical repairs, panel upgrades, rewiring, outlet and lighting installation, ceiling fans, EV charger circuits, generator hookups, and electrical safety inspections. Whether you have one dead outlet or a full panel replacement ahead of you, we handle it the same way: diagnose first, explain clearly, then do the work right.
For commercial clients, we provide commercial electrical repair, panel and service upgrades, office and retail electrical work, outdoor and security lighting, dedicated circuits for equipment, and commercial wiring for tenant improvements and buildouts. Property managers and business owners call us because they need work done on a schedule, with results that hold up and documentation that satisfies inspection.
Experienced electricians who respect your home and your business are what you get on every call.
We show up ready to work.
Customers ask us regularly about cost: what does a panel upgrade run, how much does rewiring cost, what is the price for an EV charger installation or a generator hookup. These are fair questions and we answer them directly.
Before any work begins, we give you a clear estimate that covers what we found, what we recommend, and what it will cost. If something changes once we're into the job, we stop and explain it before we proceed. No surprise line items at the end. No charges for work you did not approve.
Electrical costs vary depending on the scope, the age of the existing system, and what materials the job requires. We do not give vague ranges just to get in the door. We look at the actual situation and give you a number you can plan around.
Getting your power back is easier than you think. We offer same-day service for many calls, and we are available around the clock for electrical emergencies. When something goes wrong at night or over a weekend, you should not have to wait until Monday morning to get help.
We serve Katy and the surrounding communities across Fort Bend County, including Sugar Land, Richmond, Rosenberg, Missouri City, Fulshear, and Cinco Ranch. If you are in this part of the Houston metro and you need an electrician, we can get someone to you.
Fair price every visit. On time every visit. Code-compliant every visit.

The table below breaks down what each service covers and who it is built for, so you can find what you need and give us a call.
| Service | Scope of Work | When You Need It | What to Keep in Mind |
|---|---|---|---|
| Whole-Home Generator Installation |
| Fort Bend County homeowners who want reliable power during hurricane season and extended outages | The transfer switch is the critical safety piece. It isolates your home from the utility line so the generator powers your circuits without backfeed risk. |
| Ceiling Fan Installation |
| Anyone adding a ceiling fan to a room or replacing an older unit | If there is no existing outlet box rated for a fan, we take care of that as part of the installation so the mount is safe and solid. |
| Outlet & Switch Installation |
| Rooms that need more outlets, kitchens and baths needing GFCI protection, or anyone replacing worn devices | GFCI outlets in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and outdoor areas are a code requirement and an important safety layer. |
| Electrical Panel Upgrades |
| Homes with aging panels, frequent breaker trips, or added loads from EV chargers or major appliances | A proper load calculation is part of every panel job so the new service is sized correctly for the home and what is plugged into it. |
| Lighting Installation |
| Homeowners upgrading interior lighting, adding outdoor security lights, or finishing a renovation | Good exterior lighting improves safety and curb appeal, and we handle the wiring and fixture mounting so the job is done cleanly. |
| Dedicated Appliance Circuits |
| Anyone adding a major appliance or large equipment that needs its own circuit | Running a high-draw appliance on a shared circuit causes nuisance trips and can shorten the life of the device; a dedicated circuit solves both problems. |
| Wiring & Rewiring |
| Older homes with outdated wiring or any home undergoing a significant addition or renovation | Knob-and-tube and aluminum branch circuit wiring can create insurance and safety concerns; replacing it with modern copper wiring addresses both. |
| Electrical Safety Inspections |
| Home buyers, sellers, landlords, and owners of older homes who want a clear picture of the system | An inspection is a documented look at the system as it actually exists, not a guess, and it gives you a clear list of what needs attention. |
| Surge & Lightning Protection |
| Any Katy-area home exposed to frequent Gulf Coast lightning and storm activity | A whole-home surge protector sits at the panel and catches voltage spikes before they reach appliances, electronics, or the panel itself. |
| Breaker & Fuse Repair |
| Anyone dealing with a breaker that will not hold or a fuse box that needs attention | A breaker that trips repeatedly is often a sign of an overloaded circuit or a failing device, not just an inconvenience. |
| Electrical Repairs & Troubleshooting |
| Any homeowner or business owner dealing with a power problem they cannot pin down | We trace the fault to the source before recommending any repair, so you know exactly what is wrong and what it will cost to fix. |
| Pool & Spa Wiring |
| Katy homeowners adding a pool or spa, or any existing pool that has not had its electrical checked recently | Bonding and grounding around water is a code requirement and the primary safety protection for anyone in or near the pool. |
How do I know if my home needs a panel upgrade?
Common signs include breakers that trip repeatedly, a panel that feels warm to the touch, circuits that cannot support new appliances, or a panel that is more than 25 to 30 years old. If you are adding an EV charger, a hot tub, or a major kitchen appliance, we start with a load calculation to see whether the existing service can handle it. If it cannot, an upgrade is the right move before anything else gets added.
What causes a breaker to keep tripping?
A breaker that trips repeatedly is usually telling you something. The most common causes are an overloaded circuit with too many devices drawing power at once, a failing breaker that can no longer hold its rated load, a short circuit in the wiring or a connected device, or a ground fault. We trace the actual cause before recommending a fix, so you are not just resetting the breaker and hoping for the best.
Is the electrical work permitted and inspected?
Yes. Jobs that require a permit get one, and we follow current code requirements on every job regardless of permit status. That includes GFCI and AFCI protection where required, proper grounding and bonding, and any inspection steps that apply to the scope of work. Work performed by licensed electricians means the job is done to the standard that protects you and your home.
Same-Day and Emergency Availability
We are available every day from 5:30 AM to 10:30 PM. When something goes wrong at an inconvenient hour, you can reach us and get it handled without waiting for the next business day.
What are the signs that a home may need rewiring?
Older homes with knob-and-tube or aluminum branch circuit wiring are the most common candidates. Beyond wiring type, signs that rewiring may be needed include outlets or switches that are warm or discolored, lights that flicker even after bulbs and fixtures are ruled out, a burning smell with no obvious source, or an insurance company that flags the wiring during a policy review. We assess the wiring during an inspection and give you a straight answer on what we find.
What does EV charger installation involve?
A Level 2 home charger runs on a dedicated 240-volt circuit. We start with a panel capacity check to confirm the service can handle the added load, then run the circuit to where the charger will be mounted. If the panel needs an upgrade to support the new circuit, we handle that as part of the project. The result is a clean installation that lets most electric vehicles charge fully overnight without depending on a standard outlet.
Do I need to be home while the work is being done?
For most jobs, yes. We need access to the panel, the areas where work is being done, and we want to walk you through what we found and what we did before we leave. If a job is scoped in advance and you have a trusted person who can provide access, we can discuss the specifics when you call. We will always let you know what the job involves before anything starts.
Work Performed by Licensed Electricians
Every job on this list is handled by licensed electricians who follow current code requirements. That means the work is done right the first time and stands up to inspection.
How does pricing work and will I get a quote before the work starts?
Yes. We give you a clear quote before any work begins. When you call, we talk through what you are dealing with and what the job involves. Once we are on site and have looked at the actual situation, we confirm the cost before we start. If something changes once we are into the job, we stop and explain it before we proceed. There are no surprises on the invoice.
Why do outlets or switches sometimes stop working?
A dead outlet is often a tripped GFCI somewhere upstream on the same circuit. Before calling, check the GFCI outlets in nearby bathrooms, kitchens, or garages and press the reset button. If that does not restore power, the problem may be a loose connection, a failing outlet, a wiring fault, or a tripped breaker. Switches that stop responding are usually a failed switch, a loose wire at the connection, or occasionally a wiring issue deeper in the circuit.
Upfront Quotes With No Surprise Fees
We tell you what the job costs before we start. If something unexpected comes up once we are into the work, we stop and explain it before we proceed.
Is same-day service available for urgent electrical problems?
Yes. We offer same-day appointments when the schedule allows, and we prioritize urgent situations. We are available every day from 5:30 AM to 10:30 PM, so if something goes wrong in the early morning or evening, you do not have to wait until the next business day. Call us and we will tell you what is available today.
What is whole-home surge protection and is it worth it in this area?
A whole-home surge protector is a device that installs at the panel level and catches voltage spikes before they reach your circuits, appliances, and electronics. The Houston metro and Fort Bend County see some of the most frequent lightning activity in the country, and a single surge event can damage a panel, shorten the life of major appliances, and fry sensitive electronics. For homes in this area, it is a high-value install that works quietly in the background every time a storm rolls through.
How long does a panel upgrade typically take?
Most panel upgrades are completed in a single day. The exact time depends on the size of the existing panel, the scope of the upgrade, and whether any additional work is needed, such as grounding improvements or subpanel installation. We will give you a realistic timeframe when we assess the job, and we plan the work to minimize how long the power is off during the process.
