Complete Home Safety & Smart Home Services
Every SafeGuard service is performed personally by Dan Hogan — Washington State Master Electrician — with the thoroughness and documentation you'd expect from someone who spent three years as a government electrical inspector. These aren't checkboxes. This is your home.
Annual Safety Membership — $275/year
The foundation of everything SafeGuard offers. Once per year, Dan comes to your home and performs a comprehensive room-by-room life safety inspection — the kind of visit that gives you genuine confidence that your home is protected. Every detector is tested. Every outlet is checked. Every fire extinguisher is inspected. And every finding is documented in your SafeGuard Customer Portal — a permanent, accessible record of your home's safety status that you can share with your insurance company, your adult children, or anyone who needs to know.

Panel Torque & Clean + IR Thermal Scan — From $375
Your electrical panel is the heart of your home's electrical system. Most homeowners have never had it professionally serviced. Most electricians don't offer it as a standalone service. SafeGuard does — and it's one of the most valuable things you can do for your home's safety and longevity. The infrared scan alone is worth the investment. Thermal cameras see heat signatures invisible to the naked eye — and a hot spot in your electrical panel is a fire waiting to happen.
- Panel vacuumed and cleaned of all debris and contamination
- All circuit breakers verified against correct wire gauge and amperage
- All conductors torqued to manufacturer specification with calibrated torque wrench
- Double taps and double landed neutrals identified and documented
- Circuit directory updated and verified room by room
- FLIR infrared thermal camera scan of entire panel
- Before and after photographs taken and archived
- Written Panel Inspection Report delivered to your Customer Portal
Smart Smoke, CO & Heat Detection — From $350
The smoke detector problem isn't just dead batteries. It's that most homeowners have aging detectors in the wrong locations, with no way to know when they trigger unless they're home to hear the alarm. SafeGuard's smart hybrid approach solves this efficiently and affordably. We install Nest Protect smart detectors in your highest-priority locations — main hallway, kitchen area, master bedroom — and interconnect them with your existing hardwired detectors throughout the home. The result: smartphone alerts for smoke, CO, heat, and even low battery warnings sent directly to your phone from anywhere on earth.
- Nest Protect smart detectors in priority locations
- Interconnected with existing hardwired detectors
- Smartphone alerts for smoke, CO, heat, and low battery
- Speaks the location of the alarm
- Self-tests regularly
- No 3am battery chirps
Flo by Moen Water Protection — From $650
Water damage is the single most common and most expensive homeowner's insurance claim. A burst pipe in a home left empty for a weekend can cause tens of thousands of dollars in damage. A burst pipe in a home left empty for three months while its owners are in Florida can be catastrophic. The Flo by Moen device is installed directly on your main water line and monitors every drop of water moving through your home 24 hours a day. For snowbirds and part-time residents, this device is not a luxury. It is essential.
- Installed directly on your main water line
- Monitors every drop of water 24/7
- Detects leaks as small as a single drip per minute
- Monitors water pressure and usage patterns
- Automatic water shutoff on burst detection
- Phone alerts whether you're home or not
Nest Thermostat Installation — From $205
The Nest Thermostat does much more than save energy — though it does that too, with 10–15% average savings on heating and cooling bills. For SafeGuard members, the Nest serves a critical safety function: freeze alerts. If your home's interior temperature drops to a dangerously low level while you're away — due to a heating system failure during a Pacific Northwest winter — your Nest sends an immediate alert to your phone. That alert can be the difference between a service call and a home full of burst pipes. The Nest also integrates with the Nest Protect smoke and CO detection system — automatically shutting down your HVAC when smoke or CO is detected to prevent the system from distributing dangerous air throughout your home.
- 10–15% average savings on heating and cooling
- Freeze alerts sent to your phone
- Integrates with Nest Protect smoke/CO system
- Automatic HVAC shutdown when smoke or CO detected
- Remote temperature control from anywhere
Lutron Caseta Smart Lighting — From $800
An empty home that looks occupied is a home that deters intruders. Lutron Caseta's Smart Away mode randomly varies your home's lighting throughout the day and evening — mimicking natural occupancy patterns — so your home looks lived in whether you're next door or across the country. Beyond security, Caseta gives you complete remote control of every light in your home from your smartphone, geofencing that activates your lights as you approach home, and customizable schedules for every room. The system requires no neutral wire and retrofits cleanly into your existing switches — no rewiring, no drywall work.
- Smart Away mode mimics natural occupancy patterns
- Complete remote control from smartphone
- Geofencing activates lights as you approach home
- Customizable schedules for every room
- No neutral wire required — clean retrofit
LED Lighting Audit & Upgrade — From $150
Still running incandescent or fluorescent bulbs? You're paying significantly more than you need to on your electric bill every month. SafeGuard performs a complete home bulb inventory, calculates your current energy cost versus LED equivalent, and provides a written ROI summary showing exactly how quickly the upgrade pays for itself. Most LED lighting upgrades pay for themselves in under 18 months — then generate pure savings for the 15–25 year life of the bulb. We also install pathway and night lighting in hallways and bathroom routes — a safety upgrade that dramatically reduces fall risk for nighttime navigation.
- Complete home bulb inventory
- Current energy cost vs LED calculation
- Written ROI summary
- Pathway and night lighting installation
- Fall risk reduction for nighttime navigation
Generac Whole-Home Standby Generator — From $8,000
When the power goes out, everything goes out — including your smart smoke detectors, your water leak monitor, your thermostat, and every other safety system in your home. Unless you have a Generac. A Generac whole-home standby generator runs on natural gas or propane and activates automatically within 8–10 seconds of a power outage — without you lifting a finger. Your home continues operating normally. Your safety systems stay online. Your refrigerator keeps your food cold. Your medical equipment keeps running. Installed by a licensed Washington State Master Electrician, your Generac becomes the cornerstone of a complete home protection system that has no single point of failure.
- Runs on natural gas or propane
- Activates automatically within 8–10 seconds
