About Us.

Electric All Pro has served homeowners since 2018 under NC license L.32531, and in Wake Forest that covers Glen Royall's mill cottages to Holding Village: storm repairs, service work, panels, chargers and lighting.

Wiring Since 2005.
Now in Wake Forest.

Hugo Balbuena's electrical career dates from 2005: houses under construction, business jobs, and then Electric All Pro, which lets him sit across from homeowners himself. He listens to the whole story, explains what turned up and fixes what matters.

For Wake Forest that is town power or two other utilities, the town's own inspectors, and meter rules on North Main Street.

✦ Why Choose Us ✦

Wake Forest’s
Trusted Electrician

Electric All Pro came along in 2018, years after my first day on the tools in 2005, wiring houses, offices and aging homes. Time after time homeowners got foggy quotes and bills that ballooned for small repairs. Here in Wake Forest, from a Glen Royall cottage to a Holding Village build, I keep to one rule: a written price, neat work, and getting to you at the hour I named.

  • License L.32531, Fully Insured

    Wake Forest jobs carry NC License L.32531 and full general liability insurance. We file the permit and you keep the paperwork.

  • The Number Before the Work

    Planned jobs are priced in writing at no charge. When nobody knows the cause yet, the $89 diagnostic finds it. The quote is the bill.

  • Learned From My Father's 40+ Years of Wiring

    My father worked in the trade for more than 40 years, and he taught me. That patience suits Wake Forest's mill cottages: every install gets done right once.

What Wake Forest Houses Ask of Us

Wake Forest's houses span almost two centuries, from the 1834 college town to subdivisions on old dairy farms, and three utilities serve the area. These are the jobs each era tends to bring us.

Historic Homes on North Main

Old wiring plus an exterior approval

Buildings along North Main Street date from about 1820 to 1956. Moving a meter or mast here requires a Certificate of Appropriateness, so we plan exterior work accordingly.

  • Meter moves, approved by town
  • Careful routes for new circuits

Cottages of Glen Royall Village

Small houses rewired a piece at a time

The Royall Cotton Mill went up in 1899 and 1900, and its village grew until 1949 with pyramidal, Triple-A and shotgun houses. A century of owners means we trace each circuit before panel work.

  • Circuits traced before upgrades
  • Protective grounding additions
  • New circuits routed carefully around old framing

He also gave me some tips on how to make the doorbell camera easier to use. Overall, he was kind, professional, and knowledgeable.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Wake Forest Electrical Answers

What Wake Forest owners ask most: storm-damaged masts, the historic district, three utilities, permits and chargers.

Still have questions?

Ask the licensed electrician who will do the job, not an answering service.

Real People. Real Answers.
Three utilities, one phone call.
Do you carry a license and insurance for Wake Forest work?

Yes. Electric All Pro is licensed by the NC State Board of Examiners of Electrical Contractors (L.32531) and insured for $1M per occurrence / $2M aggregate in general liability. Every Wake Forest job we permit passes the town's own inspection.

Does a Glen Royall mill cottage need a complete rewire?

Usually not in one go. Cottages built between 1900 and 1949 have often been rewired in parts over the years, so we first learn what is there: which circuits run where, how the grounding is done and what the service can carry. Then we fix only what needs it, with the price in writing before work starts.

Will a Holding Village panel carry a 48-amp charger and a hot tub as well?

Sometimes. A new panel is not a promise of spare room; a load calculation on your house gives the answer first.

Which parts of Wake Forest, NC, do you work in?

All of it, from North Main Street, South Avenue and Glen Royall to Heritage and Holding Village, and next door in Rolesville, Youngsville and Raleigh, with one licensed crew.

Does every Wake Forest electrical job need a permit?

Yes, the town requires one for any electrical work, even an accessory building with wiring. Wake Forest's own Inspections Department at Town Hall handles it, not Wake County: plans go through IDT Plans, fees and inspection requests through eSuite Permits, by 3 p.m. for the next business day. We file it all, start to finish.

Storm or outage at my Wake Forest home: is the repair the utility's job or mine?

Check who powers the street: Wake Forest Power at (919) 435-9478, Wake Electric or Duke Energy Progress. If a storm pulled down your mast or meter, that equipment is the owner's to repair, with a permit and inspection first. We answer those calls 24/7.
