Clayton’s
Trusted Electrician
In 2018 I started my own company, Electric All Pro. Since 2005 I had wired new homes, commercial sites and older houses, and people kept showing me quotes that said nothing and bills that kept climbing. In Clayton, from the Cotton Mills village to Riverwood, I work a simple way: an honest price first, careful work, and keeping every appointment I make.
-
Licensed, Insured, Permitted
Clayton permits show NC License L.32531. Beyond that, we carry $1M/$2M in liability coverage. Inspection results stay on file.
-
The Price Before the Work
We quote planned work at no charge and on paper. If a fault has no clear cause, the $89 diagnostic goes first. Our quote is your bill.

Father to Son: Two Generations in the Trade
I learned the trade from my father, who spent over 40 years in it. Clayton's mill houses and bungalows reward that care: we take the time to get each job right.

Clayton Homes
Wiring Through Clayton's Building Eras
Clayton has sold its own electricity since 1913, and its homes range from mill houses to 1950s ranches. Each era raises its own wiring questions, and these are the ones we answer most often.
Clayton Historic District Homes
Several eras of wiring in one house
Frame houses and bungalows along East Second Street's 200 block frequently contain electrical wiring from several eras, so we identify the original parts before any additions.
- Untangling several wiring eras
- Grounding and surge protection
- Service and panel condition
Clayton's Cotton Mills Houses
A century of alterations and additions
The town's first cotton mill was built in 1900 on Mill Street and closed in 1976. Its mill-village houses, like one on Central Street from about 1900, have had a century of changes, so we map every circuit first.
- Mapping circuits and their loads
- Checking previous alterations
- Upgrades planned around the original framing
Blanche Street to East Main Street
Ranch homes with expanding appliance loads
Ranches reached the district in the early 1950s, like 130 Blanche Street and 623 East Main Street from about 1955. We check the panel's capacity before any new appliance goes in.
- Panel capacity checks
- Breaker and outlet updates around the house
- Power for new equipment

When Clayton Wiring Fails
Breaker won't hold? Lights out overnight? Clayton homes can count on emergency electrical repairs at any hour, on weekends and holidays as well. When the street is dark, it belongs to the utility: Clayton Public Power at (919) 553-1530, or Duke Energy Progress in areas like Riverwood. Just your home? Call us.
Sparks, a scorched smell or wires you can see? Step back from them; if there is fire, call 911 first. Then dial our electrician in Clayton line: someone real answers, gets the house safe and says plainly what happened.

“The owner Hugo was quick to respond to my needs, he was kind enough to adjust his work load to fit me in today. Much appreciated, he was kind, quite, he did what needed to be done, I feel the price was within my comfort zone. He will be added to my contact information for my electric needs.”
Lygia Yarborough
“Hugo and crew did great electrical and installing work in my condo. He and his crew were not only proficient in their work but perfect guests in my home. The work is done beautifully. If you need electrical work in your house or condo any where near Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill (RTP) please call Hugo. You will not regret it. (When you call you will likely get his service. But don’t be discouraged. He responds super quickly. And, once he is on the job, you can call his cell directly. ) #Raleigh #Durham #ChapelHill #Electrician.”
John Lane
“I believe the engineers name is Omar but my cell has bad reception... I emailed him explaining what I need and he came by for a free estimate same day! He had my ceiling fan fixture as well as a small fixture installed in no time that Friday. He is very clean, courteous and friendly with pets!! I will only be calling him in the future for my electrical needs for sure! Thank you electric all pro!!!!”

Frequently Asked Questions
Clayton Electrician Answers
What Clayton homeowners ask us most: load management, mill houses, emailed permits, power outages and which utility you are on.
Still have questions?
Ask the licensed electrician working on your job directly, never a dispatcher.
Real People. Real Answers.
Check your bill, then call us.
Are you licensed and insured to work on Clayton homes?
Yes. Our NC electrical contractor License is L.32531, and we carry $1M per occurrence / $2M aggregate general liability insurance. Clayton jobs we permit are inspected through the town or Johnston County, so the work stays on record.
Does a Clayton Cotton Mills house need a full rewire?
Not necessarily. Mill-village houses from about 1900 have had over a hundred years of updates, added piece by piece. We trace what every circuit feeds, check earlier repairs and measure the load on the service, then recommend just what the house requires, with the price set down in writing first.
Why does my Clayton water heater stop working between 3 and 6 p.m.?
It may be on Clayton Public Power's load management. The town asks you to call (919) 553-1530 before a technician.
Do you work in every part of Clayton, NC and nearby?
Yes, from the historic district, East Second Street and the Cotton Mills village to Blanche Street and Riverwood, plus nearby Garner, Raleigh and Benson, with one crew.
Who issues the electrical permit for my Clayton home?
Yes, for most work other than replacing like with like. Within the town and its ETJ, the Town of Clayton issues it; since July 1, 2026, applications go only by email to the town. Beyond that line, Johnston County handles it. Inspections asked for by 4 p.m. happen a business day later. We handle the filing and schedule each inspection.
Power out at my Clayton home: is it Clayton Public Power, Duke or an electrician?
When the whole street is out, call your utility: Clayton Public Power at (919) 553-1530, or Duke Energy Progress in areas such as Riverwood. A water heater that goes cold from 3 to 6 p.m. may be on load management. If just your home is dark, call us, 24/7.
