Another beautiful generator installation completed along the shores of the St. Mary's River!

This homeowner now has the peace of mind that comes with reliable backup power when Michigan weather takes an unexpected turn. We installed a Generac standby generator with an automatic transfer switch to keep essential systems running during outages.

Whether you're on the waterfront, in town, or off the beaten path, Upper Hand Electric is here to help protect your home and family with dependable backup power solutions.

⚡ EV Charging, Done Right ⚡

Here’s a look at two options we recently helped a customer with:

The first is a plug-in EV outlet, and the second is a hardwired EV charger we installed.

Every home and every driver is a little different. Some setups work great with a plug, while others benefit from a dedicated, hardwired solution for efficiency and reliability.

That’s where working with a Master Electrician makes the difference. We make sure everything is installed safely, up to code, and built to handle your charging needs.

Thinking about adding an EV charger at home?
We’ll help you choose the right setup and get it done right the first time.

🚨 Real Job. Real Risk. 🚨

This is something we came across inside a client’s wall…

A rodent nest, right on top of live electrical wiring.

Over time, mice had been chewing through the insulation, creating a serious fire hazard that could have gone unnoticed until it was too late.

⚠️ Exposed wires
⚠️ Hidden damage
⚠️ Major safety risk

Situations like this are more common than people think, especially in older homes or during colder months when pests move indoors.

Thankfully, we caught this one early.

If you’re noticing flickering lights, tripped breakers, or anything unusual, don’t ignore it. It could be something hidden behind your walls.

Stay safe. Call a professional.
