Much of SeaTac's housing near the airport is multifamily, set among postwar single-family homes in Angle Lake and Riverton Heights. Many of those buildings have aging electrical systems, and on older properties we frequently find the same problems: shared neutrals, overloaded panels, and missing GFCI protection. A shared laundry room on an undersized feeder is another common pressure point as more tenants run their own washers and dryers. Left alone, these issues can turn into tenant complaints, a vacancy, or an insurance problem for the owner.
We give each unit its own properly separated and labeled circuits, put common-area lighting and laundry rooms on their own feeders, and install interconnected smoke and carbon-monoxide detection per code. When a laundry room or added load needs more capacity, a subpanel is often the answer. Where the utility and jurisdiction allow it, we can convert a shared service to individually metered units. Permits go through the City of SeaTac Building Department, and since SeaTac is served by Seattle City Light or Puget Sound Energy (PSE), depending on address, we coordinate meter and service work with the right utility.
Whether you own a single duplex or manage a small apartment building, we start by reviewing the panels, unit circuits, and common areas with you, then lay out what should be fixed now and what can be phased. We schedule around tenants, keep hallways and stairwells lit, and leave a documented panel for future maintenance. Call (206) 533-6333, Monday through Friday, 8:00 to 4:30.
Multi-Family Electrician in SeaTac: Your Questions
Do you work on multifamily properties in SeaTac?
Yes. We handle duplexes and small apartment buildings in SeaTac, including common-area circuits, unit separation, laundry room feeders, and interconnected smoke/CO detection. Work is permitted through the City of SeaTac Building Department and inspected to code.
Who provides power to my SeaTac building?
SeaTac is served by Seattle City Light or Puget Sound Energy (PSE), depending on address. We confirm which utility serves your property and coordinate meter, service, and any meter-separation work directly with that provider.
Can you add EV charging to a multi-family property?
Yes. We install shared or individually metered Level 2 charging stations with subpanels and load management so the building's service isn't overloaded. We review your existing capacity first and tell you what the building can support.
Can you upgrade panels in an older apartment building?
Yes. We replace overloaded or outdated panels, correct shared neutrals, and bring grounding and GFCI protection up to code, while keeping common areas lit and safe for tenants and coordinating timing with the owner or property manager.
REAL REVIEWS.
REAL RESULTS.
"I had an incredible experience getting service done from All City Electric. I wanted to have some outlets fixed as well as install a Level 2 Charger. They were easy to schedule a time for an estimate and also for the service. The electrician came right on time for both appointments and was very respectful and sweet. Every team member was very kind and sweet and accommodating. I would highly recommend them for any future service needs you have!"

"I called All City Electric when my laundry room and living room lights would not turn off. If you tried to turn them off they flicker. Then 5 of my outlets either didn't work or things would fall out of them. I finally got sick of it and reached out explaining my situation. The gal that answered my call was very sweet and kind. Even when I called back the next day saying I forgot to write it down and wanted to confirm my appointment day and time. We had a good laugh. She made my day! Today, Kevin showed up on time and confirmed the problem and got to work right away. He was pleasant and kind during the entire process. He answered all my questions. Thank you to the entire staff and owner of All City Electric!! You will forever have my business. Please call if you have any issues. They are absolutely the best to work with!! Thank you again!!"
