Reviews

Rico customers on our work

★★★★★

“Had them wire the whole lighting plan for our remodel. They laid out the recessed cans on paper first, which caught a spacing problem before anything was cut. The finished rooms look exactly like we hoped.”

Remodel client, Rico
★★★★★

“Two other electricians could not find why our lights flickered. Frost tracked it to a failing neutral at the service. Methodical, patient, and they showed me exactly what they found before replacing anything.”

Homeowner, Rico
★★★★★

“Straightforward from the first phone call. Gave me a real window, texted when on the way, and the quote was the price. That should be normal and somehow it is not.”

Smart Home Wiring in Rico: common questions

Why will my smart switch not work in some boxes?

Most smart switches need a neutral conductor, and older Rico homes often ran switch loops without one. We either pull a neutral to the box or install a switch designed to work without it, depending on what the wall allows.

Is wired better than wireless for cameras?

For anything you rely on, yes. Wired cameras do not go offline when batteries die or Wi-Fi is congested, and power over Ethernet means one cable does both jobs.

Can you add a C-wire for a smart thermostat?

Yes. Depending on the run we either pull new thermostat cable or install an adapter at the air handler. Either way the thermostat stops dropping offline and stealing power from the control board.

Will my smart home still work if the internet goes down?

Local control depends on the platform. We favour setups where switches still function as normal switches and hubs run locally, so an outage means losing remote control, not losing your lights.

Can you wire a whole house during a remodel?

That is the ideal time. Open walls mean network, speaker, camera and control cabling can be run cleanly and terminated at a structured panel, which is far cheaper than retrofitting later.
