No two homes or families are alike, and neither are their electrical needs. That’s why we offer a comprehensive suite of services designed with flexibility and quality in mind:
- Electrical Installations & Panel Upgrades
From adding extra outlets in a home office to upgrading your service panel to match today’s energy demands, we tailor our work to keep your system safe and efficient. - Custom Lighting Solutions
We help set the mood and boost security with well-planned interior and exterior lighting installations. Whether it’s ambient lighting for cozy family rooms or bright, motion-activated lights around your yard, we’ve got it covered. - Safety First with Protective Devices
From installing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors to surge protectors that shield your electronics, our priority is your family’s safety. - Rewiring & Wiring Inspections
Older homes sometimes struggle under the weight of modern appliances. We assess your wiring’s condition and upgrade where needed to meet current safety codes. - Backup Generators & Power Solutions
Washington weather can be unpredictable, but that doesn’t mean your power should be. We install reliable generators to keep your home functioning when the grid doesn’t.
A Typical Day on the Job in Shoreline
Picture this: It’s a crisp fall morning in Shoreline. Alex, one of our seasoned electricians, arrives at a homeowner’s house, greeted by the soft rustling of leaves and a warm smile. The family’s kitchen lighting has been flickering, causing frustration and concern. Alex thoroughly inspects the electrical panel and traces the culprit—aging wiring struggling with today’s power loads. After calmly walking the family through their options, he gets to work, installing new wiring and adding under-cabinet LED lighting that brightens the whole room. By the time he packs up, the kitchen is transformed—both safer and more inviting for countless future meals and gatherings.
The Gene Johnson Difference: More Than Just Service
What truly sets us apart in Shoreline isn’t just our technical knowledge, but how we approach every home and family. We believe in transparency: No hidden fees, no rushed jobs. You get clear explanations, honest pricing, and a friendly technician who treats your home with respect. We show up on time, work cleanly, and leave you feeling confident about the job done. That’s why neighbors come back to us time and again—not just for electrical work but for plumbing, heating, and cooling as well.
Thinking Ahead: Why Preventative Care Matters
Electrical issues often creep up slowly—an outlet that doesn’t quite work, a breaker that trips now and then. Small annoyances can be early signs of bigger problems. That’s why regular electrical inspections and maintenance are so important. We recommend scheduling a check-up every few years, especially if you live in an older home or are planning renovations. Preventing hazards before they arise is the safest, smartest way to protect your home and loved ones.
Choosing Your Electrical Service Provider
Picking a reliable electrician in Shoreline isn’t something to take lightly. Here’s what you should keep in mind:
- Licensed and Insured Professionals – It’s essential your electrician meets state requirements and is fully insured to protect your home.
- Experience You Can Trust – Longevity in the community, real customer testimonials, and a track record of quality work speak volumes.
- Comprehensive Offerings – Look for a company that can meet all your needs under one roof, eliminating the hassle of juggling multiple contractors.
- Clear, Upfront Pricing – No surprises means you can plan your project without stress.
- Emergency Availability – Power outages and electrical failures don’t always happen during office hours. Having a team ready when you need it makes all the difference.
At Gene Johnson, we check every box because we’re as invested in your home’s safety as you are.

David is absolutely fantastic! From the moment he arrived—following a water heater explosion that left us with four inches of flooding—he was professional, calm, and approachable. He took the time to walk us through every step of the process, ensuring we felt informed and confident in our options and next steps. His customer service is unmatched, and I’m incredibly grateful for his expertise, craftsmanship, and kindness.

Derek Solberg showed up quickly and got right to work, figuring out my leak and how to fix it. He stayed late to get the job done and was kind and positive.
We went from, “Holy cow, our waterline blew, and our well turned our crawlspace and basement into a pond.” To “our water is back on, and we are good to go with updated piping.”
Thank you, Derek!

Derrick was very helpful to me. He was very professional and knew exactly what I needed. He checked everything and explained everything as well. He even had the equipment and repaired a pipe that looked like it was going to burst shortly. I really appreciate him and his relaxed manner.

I am very pleased with the assistance Tyler has given me in detecting an outside water leak. He was prompt to respond and diligent in trying to determine the issue. I’m looking forward to locate the actual leak and his fix.

Chase Bolen replaced our hot water tank yesterday. He and apprentice arrived on time and carried out the task quickly and efficiently. He explained clearly how the leak sensor, alarm, and automatic shut-off worked as well as how to change the water temperature if desired. I have no hesitation about recommending their work.
