Your licensed electrician in historic State Thomas
State Thomas is one of Dallas's oldest neighborhoods and a designated historic district, tucked into the north end of Uptown near McKinney Avenue and the M-Line trolley. It is known for its rare concentration of restored Victorian-era homes from the 1880s and 1890s, standing alongside modern luxury townhomes, condos, and mid-rise residences, a striking mix of old and new. Walkable and affluent, it is a place where history is preserved, and the electrical work spans both eras.
The Victorian homes are among the oldest in the city, and their original wiring is long past its safe service life. Knob-and-tube and early wiring from the 1880s and 1890s must be replaced, but doing so in an ornate historic home full of plaster, trim, and period detail is delicate, skilled work. We rewire carefully, fishing new grounded circuits through historic construction with minimal disruption, preserving the craftsmanship that makes these homes irreplaceable.
Those same homes are made for grand fixtures. Victorian and restored homes feature ornate chandeliers and period lighting in their formal rooms and entries, and hanging and wiring them properly, with correct rated support and careful balancing, is its own craft. We install, rewire, and restore chandeliers and period fixtures so they are safe, secure, and beautiful, true to the character of the home.
The district's modern townhomes and condos get the contemporary side of our work, smart home wiring, recessed lighting, and EV charging, and we provide panel upgrades and safety inspections across both. Whatever the home, we bring a licensed, code-first approach, restoration-sensitive care, and respect for the historic district. We answer the phone around the clock.

Learn moreElectrical work across State Thomas's two eras
State Thomas is unusual in spanning two very different kinds of home, and we work across both. The Victorian houses are some of the oldest in Dallas, and their knob-and-tube and early wiring has long outlived its safe life, making replacement essential, both for safety and for insurance. But rewiring a delicate historic home is a craft: we plan routes carefully, fish new grounded circuits through plaster and around original trim with minimal disruption, and protect the period details that make these homes irreplaceable, bringing the wiring fully up to date without erasing the history.
Those homes also call for the fixtures their architecture deserves. Ornate chandeliers and period lighting define Victorian formal rooms and entries, and hanging or restoring them is precise work, the support must be rated for real weight, the fixture wired and balanced, and antique pieces handled with care. We install, rewire, and restore chandeliers and period fixtures so they are safe and stunning, in keeping with the home.
The district's modern luxury townhomes and condos bring the contemporary side of the work: smart home wiring, recessed lighting, and EV charging, all wired to perform reliably. Across both eras we provide panel and service upgrades and honest safety inspections, and we work with respect for the historic district throughout, delivering licensed, code-first electrical for every State Thomas home.
