Electrician in Lexington MA for Winter Prep
The Farmer's Almanac predicts that Lexington, MA and the surrounding area will most likely see the first snow and / or icy rain by the end of November. The first half of Winter will bring more ice this year. With that being said, do you feel you're ready for Winter? Do you have a back up generator or some form of back up power?
Yes, Fall is a beautiful season. Yes, we know it's not Thanksgiving yet. But, you can never prepare too soon. With a recent nor'easter hitting New England, we can all be thankful that it's just rain. If it were 10 degrees cooler, it would be an icy mess. How about 5 degrees more, and you have a Winter mess.

All Ice Matters.
Why are these predictions so significant then? Ice is actually more damaging to trees and houses than snow or even heavy snow itself. However, if conditions begin as more icy and then intensifies as heavy snow, this becomes a recipe for disaster. You'll see more slip and falls, trees becoming more rigid and therefore snapping, collapsing and / or falling, which means the inevitable of losing electrical power.
How Modern Electric Can Help You
Thankfully, there are many solutions to these problems that can be properly planned and budgeted. For preventing slips and falls, salt may not be enough if you can't see where you're going. That's why this problem could be solved if you install driveway safety lighting. If you already have some lighting at your driveway and you still can't see where you're going, then please contact us so that we can better design and / or upgrade your set up.

If the power from the grid goes out, you don't have to be left in the dark! Maybe you don't want to handle a generator. That's totally fine! We can set up a system so that a back up generator automatically kicks in right when the power goes out. We can also set it up so that it "disappears" within your landscape and is safely away from high traffic areas.
