Comprehensive Surge Protection Services in Roanoke, VA

Did you know a single lightning strike or power surge can destroy tens of thousands of dollars worth of sensitive electronics in seconds? Without a whole home surge protection system, your appliances and devices are at constant risk. But there’s good news — protecting your home doesn’t have to be complicated.

We’re proud to offer whole home surge protection in Roanoke and all of Southside VA. It’s important to safeguard your home’s electrical system against excess voltage, whether from lightning strikes, external power surges, or internal surges caused by faulty wiring or malfunctioning appliances.

Basic power strip surge protectors can’t protect appliances like your AC or water heater. A whole house surge protector, on the other hand, is installed directly into your main breaker panel, safeguarding your entire home. Our licensed electricians specialize in whole home surge protection installation in Roanoke and throughout Southside VA, so you know that every detail is handled with care and precision.

Peter Washburn

Most excellent work. Travis clearly knew what he was doing. This was a complete re-plumbing of my house. He quoted three days and did it in three days. Every step of the way my questions were carefully answered and I was encouraged to watch and see what was done. Things like vents for sewer lines were added that I didn't even know I needed (and they made a difference!). Travis was pleasant (even with my dog) and cleaned up everywhere he worked when done. Not always sure how to pick service people, but I must say I got really lucky. I 100% recommend these guys.

Sam, Damien, and Ryder were very proffessional. Me and my wife loved of how quickly these guys were able to respond and get the job done. We had a lot water damage being done to our kitchen floor and if we had waited any longer. It could've been disastrous. They were all still young and full of spirit and motivation to get the job done right. With how much crawl space work these guys did, please make sure to give these guys some extra credit. They deserve it. I will 100% recommend Davis to anyone as even if they got something wrong. They'll claim full responsibility. Very good business code to go by! Other businesses could learn a thing or two about proper work culture from these guys!

Chuck Fuller

We received amazing service from the Team at Davis! The service manager Jonathon was quick to respond to our issue and got us into their schedule in just a couple days. The installers Daniel and Joseph worked quickly and quietly, and left our space cleaner than they found it. Very happy with the experience.

Victor B

I am happy to have selected Davis for my heating, plumbing, and air conditioning at Smith Mountain Lake. So far, Davis has done three jobs for me, and I am satisfied with the results and pricing. In particular, Daniel and Isaac did a great job installing a new HVAC for me. They are hardworking, knowledgeable, and very efficient as a team. Again, I am glad to have access to Davis in my area and would select them again with 100% confidence. Update: More great work from Davis. Michael solved a difficult plumbing issue by re-routing the outdated pipes in my old lake cottage, a complicated job that saved me from having to re-plomb the whole house. Again, 100% happy and confident with Davis' experts!

Keith Johnson

After calling for HVAC service (for no A/C) for our recently acquired 25 year old system, we received a quick response from Davis. Our first tech Chris came out, trouble shot the no A/C issue, and repaired the improperly wired thermostat right away. He gave us an estimate on the needs of the current system that he saw but suggested a consultation for a complete review as it was a lot to invest in an older system. A few days later, Mike came out and offered multiple options to update our two systems, including financing opportunities (I need to emphasize there was never any pressure offering "today only" pricing, been through that before!). We were fortunate, the systems we chose to upgrade with, Davis had in stock (one dual fuel & one heat pump) and within a week crews were available to install.
Fast forward 5 days; the original plan was for a two day install, one for each floor. The day before day one install, Davis staff called and asked if they could do both units in one day? Worked for us! The install crew(s) that arrived were on time as scheduled, all were very polite, each one made sure they introduced themselves, and they focused on their work and finished all the work within their scheduled 8 hours. I cannot praise them enough, no mess or any debris left behind, they even vacuumed the carpet in the bedroom where the attic access is.
We are happy with Davis services and are pleased to recommend them to others!

Gregory Flinchum

Sam and devin were awesome! Explained in detail and advised the best options. Even came back the same day to do minor adjustment as my preference! Would recommend to anyone.

Jeffrey White

Damian, Devan, and Michael replaced our 10-year-old water heater with a new Navien tankless unit and installed a Water Right Impression Plus water softener. Our hard water was taking a toll on our faucets and appliances, so they installed a new kitchen faucet and a fridge water line at no charge for labor. Highly professional and detail oriented. They were also very clear in explaining the new equipment and regular maintenance. It’s great to contract with such skilled and personable plumbers.

Why Whole-Home Surge Protection Is Essential in Roanoke & Southside VA

Power surges aren’t just a minor inconvenience; they can cause significant damage to your electrical system and result in costly repairs or replacements for your home’s electronics. Lightning strikes, power outages, and other electrical issues can send excess voltage through your electrical panel, leaving your home vulnerable. With a whole house surge protection system, you’re proactively defending your home from these risks.

Virginia’s unique weather patterns, including frequent thunderstorms, increase the likelihood of electrical surges. Investing in whole-house surge protectors provides comprehensive defense by diverting excess voltage away from your circuit breaker and sensitive devices. Protecting your home’s electrical system is the best way to preserve your family’s comfort and avoid interruptions to your daily life.

Davis proudly serves the Roanoke Valley and beyond, reaching homes and businesses in the Smith Mountain Lake area, Danville, and South Boston, VA.

How Whole-House Surge Protectors Work

Whole house surge protectors work by intercepting surges of electricity and diverting excess voltage away from your home’s electronics and appliances. They are installed directly into your main electrical panel, creating a barrier that absorbs and redirects dangerous spikes in voltage. This prevents damage to your sensitive electronics, such as computers, TVs, and gaming systems, as well as larger appliances like HVAC systems and water heaters.

Unlike a standard power strip, which only offers surge suppression for a few devices, whole home surge protectors cover your entire home. Whether it’s internal surges from malfunctioning appliances or external power surges caused by grid disruptions, these devices ensure your home’s electrical system operates smoothly and safely.

Benefits of Installing Whole-House Surge Protectors

Protection for Expensive Electronics: Safeguard your investments, including TVs, computers, and kitchen appliances, from damage due to power surges.
Reduced Risk of Electrical Fires: By redirecting excess voltage, surge protectors help minimize overheating in your electrical system.
Extended Appliance Lifespan: Appliances like your HVAC system, water heater, and refrigerator are shielded from damage, prolonging their functionality.
Comprehensive Coverage: Unlike power strips, whole house surge protectors defend your entire home.
Cost Savings on Repairs: Avoid the hefty costs associated with replacing critical electronics and addressing surge damage.

Types of Surge Protection Devices Available

When it comes to protecting your home from power surges, one solution rises above the rest: a whole-home surge protector.

Unlike other surge protection devices, which only offer partial coverage, a whole-house surge protector can handle the job of all other types combined.

Power Strip Surge Protectors: Ideal for localized protection, these can be used to shield your most critical electronics like computers or gaming consoles. While not as comprehensive as whole home surge protectors, they offer an additional layer of defense.
Point-of-Use Surge Protectors: Designed for individual appliances, these devices plug into an outlet and are used for high-value items like a water heater or HVAC system.
Surge Protective Outlets: These outlets combine standard functionality with surge suppression, offering built-in protection for appliances plugged directly into them.

By choosing a whole-house surge protection system, you eliminate the need for multiple individual devices and prepare your home to handle power surges of any size.
