What we do
Residential Electrical Services
Two groups of residential electrical work — new construction and homeowner service — all done with permits where required, clean installations, and honest communication throughout.
New Construction Electrical
Electrical work for single-family homes under construction, from the first wire pulled to the final punch list.
- Single-family new construction
- Electrical rough-in
- Service equipment, panels and distribution
- Trim and devices
- Final electrical work and punch-list work
Homeowner Electrical Services
The electrical work homeowners in La Vergne call about most.
Four categories of residential service work for the home you already live in.
Panel Upgrades
We replace outdated panels, increase capacity, and set your system up so it can safely handle your home's electrical needs — now and as those needs grow. The work is done to code, planned correctly, and built to avoid the kinds of problems that come from shortcuts.
- Panel is full — no room left to add new circuits
- Breakers tripping repeatedly under normal use
Lighting and Interior Electrical Upgrades
We upgrade lighting so your home actually works the way you expect — brighter, more functional, and easier to use day to day. Everything is planned and installed correctly so it looks clean and works the way it should. If your lighting feels like something you've had to work around instead of something that works for you, it's probably time to change it.
- Rooms that stay dark no matter how many lamps you add
- Not enough outlets — relying on extension cords permanently
Service Calls and Troubleshooting
We find the source of the problem, explain what's going on, and fix it properly — not just reset it and hope. We focus on solving it right, not applying temporary fixes. You'll get a clear explanation of what's wrong and what your options are before any work is done.
- Breaker that keeps tripping — resetting it only buys time until it trips again
- Outlet or circuit that stopped working — nothing plugged in responds
Equipment and Power Installations
We install dedicated circuits and power setups so your equipment runs safely, reliably, and without causing issues elsewhere in your home. These installations are planned correctly so your system can handle the load without problems. If you're adding equipment to your home, setting it up right from the start is far easier than working around limitations later.
- No home charging option beyond a slow standard outlet — and a new EV that needs real charging
- HVAC unit that needs a proper disconnect installed or replaced
Why Choose Red Cedar Electric
Code-compliant work, clean installations, honest communication.
A licensed Tennessee electrician with a residential electrical focus — direct communication, attention to scheduling, clean workmanship, permit and inspection coordination where applicable, and owner accountability on every job.
Permits pulled. Inspections passed.
For all work that requires a permit under Tennessee code, we pull it before starting. No exceptions. Unpermitted electrical work is a liability problem at resale — and we won't create that for you.
Clean work that respects your home.
We protect surfaces, clean up completely, and don't leave a job half-finished. The visible quality of the installation matters to us as much as what's inside the wall.
Long-term reliability, not shortcuts.
We size circuits correctly, use quality materials, and don't cut corners to save time. The goal is work that lasts — not work that gets you by until something fails.
Honest communication.
We explain what's wrong, what's needed, and why — before any work starts. No surprises on scope, timeline, or cost.
Residential-only focus.
We primarily serve homeowners, along with small, owner-operated properties like local shops and small businesses. This focus keeps our attention on the type of work we do best — clean, reliable installations done the right way.
Owner accountability, start to finish.
You work directly with the owner — the licensed Tennessee electrician doing the work. Attention to scheduling, direct answers, and one person accountable from the first conversation through completion.
Who we work with
We're the right fit if you want the job done correctly.
We're not for everyone — and that's by design. If you're looking for the cheapest quote, a workaround that skips the permit, or someone who'll cut corners to finish faster, we're not the right call. But if you want the work done right, with a professional who puts their name on it and stands behind it, we're a good fit.
- Homeowners who want long-term solutions, not patches.
- Projects where code compliance and permits matter.
- Work that needs to hold up to an inspection or resale review.
- Jobs where communication and reliability aren't optional.

Common questions before the first call.
Honest answers to what homeowners ask most.
Do you pull permits for electrical work?
Yes — for all work that requires a permit under Tennessee code. Unpermitted electrical work creates problems at resale, voids homeowner insurance claims, and isn't something we'll do to save a few dollars. We do the job right or we don't do it.
Do you work on commercial properties?
No. Red Cedar Electric is residential-only — homeowner electrical work and single-family new construction. That focus is intentional and it shows in the quality of the work.
What areas do you serve?
We serve La Vergne, Smyrna, Murfreesboro, Christiana, Antioch, Brentwood, Franklin, Lebanon, and Shelbyville. Permits are pulled and inspections completed with whichever authority has jurisdiction, so the work is done correctly in every one of them.
