Residential Electrician Serving Boise, Idaho
Boise is the heart of the Treasure Valley, a city where the historic character of the North End meets the high-tech, modern energy of South Boise and the Foothills. Whether you live in a classic bungalow built in 1910 or a brand-new smart home in Harris Ranch, you need a residential electrician who understands the unique “electrical DNA” of Boise’s diverse neighborhoods and the rigorous standards of the City of Boise Planning and Development Services.
State Street Electric is proud to be a staple of the Boise community. Unlike general electrical contractors who jump between large commercial sites and industrial warehouses, we are exclusively residential. Our tools, our expertise, and our schedules are dedicated entirely to keeping Boise homes safe and powered.
Owner Mike King (Idaho Electrical Contractor License #059231) oversees every project personally. From securing permits for historic renovations to coordinating with Idaho Power for panel upgrades, we handle the details so you can enjoy peace of mind.

Boise’s Electrical Landscape: What We See Most
Historic Home Rewiring & Safety
Boise’s older neighborhoods are beautiful, but their electrical systems often aren’t up to modern standards. We specialize in safe, efficient rewiring projects that eliminate hazards like cloth-covered wire and ungrounded circuits without damaging your home’s historic charm.
EV Charger Installations
Boise leads the valley in green energy adoption. We provide turnkey Level 2 charging solutions, mounting the unit and running a dedicated 240V circuit to your garage or carport. We handle the permit and inspection, so your charger is safe and code-compliant.
200-Amp Panel Upgrades
Many homes built before 1990 were never designed for electric vehicle chargers, modern HVAC systems, or high-power induction ranges. We perform seamless panel upgrades, coordinating the “meter pull” with Idaho Power to get your home modernized in a single day.
Boise Permitting — We Handle Everything
Major electrical work in the City of Boise requires a professional permit. At State Street Electric, we manage the entire lifecycle—from the initial application to the final sign-off with the city inspector. This ensures your home remains compliant with Idaho law and protects your homeowner’s insurance coverage in the event of a claim.
