Local Business Description
I'm DoneRite Electric, a family-owned and operated electrical and HVAC business proudly serving Hammond and the surrounding areas since 2001. My journey in this trade began with a five-year electrical apprenticeship, followed by managing the electrical department at Baton Rouge General Hospital. This experience gave me a deep understanding of the critical systems that keep homes and businesses safe and comfortable. My wife and I have called this community home for decades, raising our family here. That local connection means I treat every home as if it were my neighbor's. I specialize in Carrier Infinity residential systems and Carrier WeatherMaker commercial units, offering expert installations, upgrades, and replacements. For electrical work, I handle everything from panel upgrades and repairs to comprehensive wiring and generator installations. You can trust me to get the job done right, with the care and precision that comes from over three decades in the field.
Common Questions
What are the most common AC problems you see in Hammond homes, and how do you fix them?
Here in Hammond's climate, two frequent issues are dirty evaporator coils, which reduce efficiency and airflow, and AC compressor failure, often due to wear or electrical problems. For dirty coils, our HVAC maintenance service includes a thorough cleaning to restore proper cooling and lower your energy bills. If a compressor fails, we provide a detailed assessment. Given our specialization in Carrier systems, we often recommend a compatible, efficient replacement unit or a full system upgrade if it's the most cost-effective long-term solution for your home.
Why should I consider upgrading my home's electrical panel?
Many older homes in our area have panels that can't safely handle the demands of modern appliances, computers, and HVAC systems. An outdated panel is a safety risk and can limit your ability to add things like a generator or electric vehicle charger. With my background managing a hospital's electrical department, safety and reliability are my top priorities. A panel upgrade or change-out ensures your home's electrical system is robust, up to current codes, and ready for both your current and future needs.
You offer both electrical and HVAC services. Can you handle a project that involves both, like installing a new central air system?
Absolutely. This is where our dual expertise really benefits homeowners. Installing a new HVAC system often requires significant electrical work, like ensuring the circuit and breaker are properly sized or even upgrading the service panel. Because we handle both sides in-house, we can seamlessly manage the entire project. This means better coordination, a single point of contact, and the assurance that both the mechanical and electrical components are installed correctly to work together safely and efficiently for years to come.
