Machias Power and Plumbing, a licensed and insured residential contractor based in Snohomish, Washington, has expanded its service offerings across Snohomish County to include electric vehicle charger installation and 24/7 emergency plumbing. The expansion responds to increasing demand from homeowners seeking a single contractor capable of handling both electrical and plumbing work, according to the company.
The updated service lineup now includes panel upgrades, outlet and wiring work, EV charger installation, water heater service, drain repair, fixture replacement, and leak detection. All work is performed by technicians licensed and insured under Washington State requirements. The addition of EV charger installation is particularly notable given the growth in electric vehicle ownership in the area. 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 for homeowners who attempt DIY solutions. Machias Power and Plumbing performs these installations as permitted electrical work, ensuring code compliance and eligibility for utility or insurance documentation.
The company brings more than 20 years of experience serving residential customers in and around Snohomish. This local tenure means technicians are familiar with the housing stock, utility infrastructure, and permitting processes specific to Snohomish County, factors that can affect project scoping and completion. For residential plumbing needs, the company now operates on a 24/7 emergency basis, covering burst pipes, failed water heaters, and sudden drainage failures. The same emergency availability applies to electrical issues, including outages, tripped panels, and wiring faults that compromise home safety.
Operating as both a licensed electrician and a plumbing contractor in Washington State requires meeting separate bonding and insurance requirements for each trade. Machias Power and Plumbing holds credentials for both, simplifying the process for homeowners who need work done across both systems, eliminating the need to coordinate between separate contractors or manage multiple project timelines. This is especially relevant for safety-sensitive work like EV charger installation and electrical panel service, where unpermitted or improperly performed work can void homeowner's insurance and create hidden hazards. By completing work to licensed, permitted standards, the company 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, giving homeowners a single point of contact. For those 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 positions Machias Power and Plumbing as a practical option.
