Machias Power and Plumbing, a licensed residential electrical and plumbing contractor based in Snohomish, Washington, has expanded its service offerings across Snohomish County. The company now provides electric vehicle (EV) charger installation and 24/7 emergency plumbing services, responding to increasing requests from homeowners seeking a single contractor for both electrical and plumbing needs.
The expansion positions Machias Power and Plumbing to serve a broader range of residential projects, including panel upgrades, outlet and wiring work, water heater service, drain repair, fixture replacement, and leak detection. All work is performed by licensed and insured technicians under Washington State requirements, ensuring compliance and safety.
The addition of EV charger installation addresses the growing number of electric vehicle owners in the county. Proper installation requires a licensed electrician to assess panel capacity, run dedicated circuits, and meet local code requirements—work that carries safety and permitting implications. Machias Power and Plumbing performs these installations as permitted electrical work, ensuring code compliance and eligibility for utility or insurance documentation.
With more than 20 years of local experience, the company has a deep understanding of Snohomish County's housing stock, utility infrastructure, and permitting processes. This local expertise informs how technicians approach both routine service calls and complex projects, ensuring efficient and accurate completion.
For residential plumbing emergencies in Snohomish County, the company now operates on a 24/7 basis. Burst pipes, failed water heaters, and sudden drainage failures can occur at any time, and the extended availability ensures homeowners can get prompt assistance without waiting until the next business day. The same emergency availability applies to electrical issues, including outages, tripped panels, and wiring faults.
Operating as both a licensed electrician and plumbing contractor in Washington State requires meeting separate bonding and insurance requirements for each trade. Machias Power and Plumbing holds credentials for both, simplifying coordination for homeowners who need work across both systems. This eliminates the need to manage multiple contractors and project timelines.
The licensing requirement is particularly critical for safety-sensitive work such as EV charger installation and electrical panel service. Unpermitted or improperly performed electrical work can void homeowner's insurance and create hidden hazards. By completing work to licensed, permitted standards, Machias Power and Plumbing ensures projects are documented and inspectable.
The expanded services are available to residential customers across Snohomish County, with the company based in Machias and serving surrounding communities. The 24/7 emergency line covers both electrical and plumbing calls, providing homeowners a single point of contact.
For homeowners evaluating contractors for upcoming projects, including EV charger installation ahead of a vehicle purchase, the combination of multi-trade licensing, local tenure, and around-the-clock availability makes Machias Power and Plumbing a practical option.
