Panel Upgrades — Keep Up with Austin’s Modern Electrical Demands
Tech-heavy homes need stronger panels. If your electrical panel was installed before 2000, chances are it can’t handle your lifestyle.
We provide panel upgrades throughout Central Austin, from Mueller to Hyde Park. Services include:
- Upgrading to 200-amp service
- Surge protection installation
- Added capacity for future circuits
- Meeting insurance and safety standards
EV Charger Installation — For a City Going Electric
Austin drivers are going electric, and so are we. We’re certified to install Tesla chargers and a variety of Level 2 EV charging stations.
Shipley Electric handles:
- Garage or carport installations
- Dual-vehicle charger setups
- Smart charger systems with app integration
- Panel assessments for safe load handling
Whether you’re in Bee Cave, Lakeway, or South Austin, our EV charging installations are smooth, tested, and built to last.
Brighten Every Room — Lighting Installation Services
Ugly lighting makes nice homes look dull. We help you fix that. Indoors or outdoors, for homes or retail spaces, we install:
- Recessed lights
- Pendant fixtures
- LED strip lighting under cabinets
- Landscape lighting
- Security lights with motion sensors
Lighting work is available across West Lake Hills, Tarrytown, and East Austin.
Electrical Repairs — Fast and Done Right
Still dealing with breakers that constantly trip? Or switches that spark when touched? Those aren’t harmless quirks. They’re signs something’s off.
Here’s what we handle:
- Overloaded or shorted circuits
- Outlets that are burned or unresponsive
- Wiring that hums, shocks, or smells burnt
- Light switch issues and no-power zones
We prioritize same-day repairs across Austin neighborhoods like Zilker, Tarrytown, and South Lamar. Our team finds the problem fast, fixes it on the spot, and leaves your space clean and safe.
Battery Backup Systems — Stay Powered During Outages
Austin’s power grid can’t always be trusted — between heat waves, storms, and unexpected failures, outages happen. We help homeowners prepare.
Installations include:
- Tesla Powerwalls
- Enphase and LG Chem batteries
- Seamless backup through transfer switches
Don’t wait for the next blackout. We install backup systems across Dripping Springs, Pflugerville, and The Domain.
Smart Panels for Smart Homes — Control Your Power Remotely
If you’re building a smart home in Austin, a SPAN panel makes total sense. Shipley Electric is one of the city’s top certified SPAN installers.
These panels allow you to:
- Monitor every circuit in real-time
- Control power from your phone
- Prioritize appliance usage during outages
- Integrate with solar and backup battery systems
For tech-forward homeowners in South Lamar, East Austin, and beyond, smart panels make managing electricity a breeze.
Whole-Home Rewiring — Better Safe Than Sorry
Older homes, especially those built before 1980, often have outdated or unsafe wiring. If your house still uses knob-and-tube or aluminum wiring, it’s time to upgrade.
We’ve rewired homes in Allandale, Clarksville, and Travis Heights to meet modern safety codes (NEC 2023). Whether it’s a full home, a detached ADU, or a rental unit — we’ll make it right.

If you run a business in Austin, you can’t afford downtime. We offer clean, compliant electrical services for commercial properties.
We work with:
- Offices, shops, and restaurants
- Network and low-voltage wiring
- Three-phase installations
- Emergency lights and signage
