Gary Houston Electric Company

As we begin another sweltering hot summer in The Natural State, we know that our energy bills are about to rise as high as the temperature outside! It already costs a small fortune to run our air conditioning each summer, and our utility providers operate as legal monopolies with the freedom to raise rates as they see fit. The only sure-fire way to fight back is by reducing our consumption, and that’s where our team at Gary Houston Electric comes in! We’ve been Little Rock’s most trusted residential electrician since 1978, and we’re always a phone call away when you’d like to schedule an in-home energy efficiency audit!

Whether you just purchased a new home or you want to update your “forever home,” it’s perfectly understandable if you don’t quite know where to start. The good news is that there are plenty of high-impact home improvement projects you can complete in a matter of days, and they’re more affo...

Springtime is always a special time in The Natural State, but Mother Nature can be quite temperamental as summer approaches! A torrential storm can seemingly come from out of nowhere, and we haven’t quite reached the end of tornado season yet. Weather-related power outages are commonplace in Arkansas throughout the year, but our team at Gary Houston Electric is always here to help! We’re proud to be an authorized supplier of KOHLER emergency generators, and we’re a phone call away whenever you’re ready to schedule a free, no-obligation estimate!

A lot has changed since Gary Houston Electric opened for business: gas was 66 cents per gallon, Bill Clinton was still Arkansas’ Attorney General, and the disco craze was still in full effect. But some things never change, and our commitment to 100% customer satisfaction is just as strong as it wa...

It’s now possible to purchase virtually anything online, but plenty of people still prefer shopping at brick-and-mortar retailers! Customers are often willing to pay a premium for truly unique shopping experiences, but they’re just as likely to take their business elsewhere if you get complacent or stop paying attention to the right details. Sometimes, all it takes is a few small upgrades to sustain customer interest, and a new lighting package offers much more “bang for your buck” than other renovations!

We all enjoy spending time indoors with our families when the outdoor temperatures drop, but this is also the time of year when our home heating costs predictably skyrocket! The market price of natural gas is determined by supply and demand, and our utility providers are free to pass those costs on....

The Natural State has an abundance of natural resources and no shortage of scenic beauty, but it’s also subject to extreme seasonal weather. The recent snowstorm in central Arkansas trapped many families in their homes for nearly a week, and there’s no telling when all the large piles of plowed snow will finally melt away. It’s a little terrifying to imagine the power going out while you and your family are snowed in and the roads are impassable, but a KOHLER emergency generator enables you to maintain continuous power in your home and weather any storm in comfort and safety.

No matter how happy you are with your home, you likely have plenty of upgrades in mind that you plan on getting to as soon as you can find the time! Some of those upgrades are more ambitious than others, but the sooner you get them completed, the sooner you and your family will be
