Step 01

We check your panel

A hot tub is a big new load. We look at what your panel can carry and tell you up front if it needs more room.

Step 02

We run a dedicated circuit

Its own circuit from the panel to the tub, sized for what the tub’s manual calls for.

Step 03

We set the disconnect

A GFCI-protected disconnect within sight of the tub, so it can be shut off and serviced safely.

Step 04

Tested, inspection lined up

We test the hookup and line up the inspection. The first soak is the only thing left to do.

Panel near capacity?

If your panel is already close to full, the tub may need more room. We’ll tell you up front, and we can handle the panel upgrade too.

Homeowners on working with Matt

Reviews our customers left on Google, word for word.

Matt was straightforward About what he would charge, and what needed to be done. I appreciated how quickly he jumped on the work, especially because lately contractors have been terrible about following up or even getting started. I never have that problem with Matt. His prices are good, his work is quality, and I intend to continue using him for all my electrical work.

I would highly recommend Matt’s Electric. I recently had a fairly large home addition. He kept me updated through the entire process. He is quit to respond to calls and questions. He’s clearly knowledgeable of all regulations/codes. Highly, highly recommend.

Matt installed under cabinet lights today. He did an excellent job, just what I asked for. Matt also changed out 3 new light fixtures. I have never had an outside outlet in the front of my house and Matt also did that. He is dependable and affordable. I would definitely recommend him!

Frequently asked questions

Straight answers to what people ask us most. Don’t see yours? Call or text (270) 302-1791, and you’ll get a real answer.

Yes. When a job needs an inspection, we line it up and coordinate it, so you’re not stuck in the middle between the electrician and the inspector.

Often, but not always. A big new load is one of the signs it’s time to look at your panel. We check what your panel can carry and tell you up front whether it needs an upgrade.

Most do. A typical hot tub runs on its own 240-volt circuit from the panel, with a GFCI-protected disconnect within sight of the tub. Some smaller plug-in models run on a 120-volt GFCI outlet. The tub’s manual says which yours needs.

Send us the tub’s electrical requirements (they’re in the manual or on the spec sheet), where it will sit, and a photo of your panel. We’ll tell you what the hookup needs and what it costs, then run the circuit and set the disconnect.
