Common Richardson Home Service Needs
Specialized solutions for Richardson's aging housing stock
⚡ Electrical Panel Upgrades
Most Richardson homes built before 1980 have 100-150 amp electrical service. Modern demands (central AC, multiple appliances, home offices, EV charging) require 200 amp panels. We handle complete upgrades with proper permitting.
⚠️ Aluminum Wiring Remediation
Many 1960s-70s Richardson homes have aluminum wiring, which can be a fire hazard. We offer COPALUM connections and copper pigtailing to make these systems safe.
💧 Slab Foundation Plumbing Issues
Like much of North Texas, Richardson homes on slab foundations occasionally experience under-slab pipe leaks. We provide leak detection, epoxy lining, and re-routing solutions that avoid expensive foundation work.
🔥 Water Heater Replacement
Richardson's aging housing stock means lots of water heaters reaching end-of-life. We replace traditional tank units and can upgrade to tankless systems.
🚰 Galvanized Pipe Replacement
Older Richardson homes often have galvanized steel pipes that corrode over time, causing low water pressure and rusty water. We replace with modern PEX or copper.
🪟 Window and Door Weatherization
Older homes need updated weatherstripping and caulking. We improve energy efficiency while maintaining original character.

About Richardson
Richardson is a thriving city of over 120,000 residents between Dallas and Plano, known for excellent schools (Richardson ISD and Plano ISD), the telecom corridor, and diverse housing options. The city features everything from affordable starter homes to million-dollar estates.
Richardson offers a strong sense of community with walkable neighborhoods, parks and trails (including the Spring Creek Nature Trail), great restaurants, and convenient access to North Texas highways. The city's mature trees and established neighborhoods give it character that newer suburbs lack.
