Gray-Rak recommends electrical tune-up for older homes

With the holidays and colder weather upon us, the electrical demand on homes is shooting up. Folks often get a tune-up for their cars this time of year, and an electrical tune-up for the home is also recommended, especially for older homes.

John Voytko, owner of Gray-Rak Electric LLC and an electrician for 30 years, noted that homes are often built with the most inexpensive electrical switches and receptacles – leading to problems down the road. These devices quickly wear out, leading to electrical faults, tripping of circuit breakers or possibly worse.

With a Whole House Tune-up, John checks every switch and receptacle in the home and replaces them as needed with quality devices. “If your home is 15 years old or more, it probably needs a tune-up,” John stated. He also provides expert trouble-shooting during the tune-up process. Gray-Rak employs a team of highly trained and licensed journeyman wiremen.

A Master Electrician, John founded Gray-Rak in 2003 in Phoenix, Ariz. He and his wife Lisa returned to northern Colorado in 2007. The company specializes in custom service, including new construction and home rewiring.
