Safeguard Your Electronics
Don't Let a Power Surge Cost You Thousands
In today’s connected homes, a sudden power surge can be devastating. From your high-definition TV and computers to your essential kitchen appliances, a single surge from a lightning strike or a grid fluctuation can cause irreversible damage, leading to expensive replacements and frustrating downtime. While many homeowners in Virginia Beach rely on small power strips, these offer very limited protection and leave most of your valuable electronics vulnerable.
At Guy Smith Home Services, we provide a robust and permanent solution: whole-home surge protection. Installed directly at your electrical panel, this system acts as a gatekeeper, blocking harmful voltage spikes before they can enter your home’s wiring. For residents across Hampton Roads, from Norfolk to Chesapeake, it’s the most comprehensive way to protect your investments and gain true peace of mind.

Complete Electronic Safety
Protect Every Device in Your Home
Think about all the sensitive electronics you use every day: your computers, smart TVs, gaming consoles, and even modern refrigerators and washing machines. Most of these devices contain microprocessors that are extremely vulnerable to damage from voltage spikes. A single power surge can degrade their performance or destroy them outright, resulting in data loss and costly replacements.
A whole-home surge protector works 24/7 to shield every outlet in your house. Unlike individual power strips that only protect what’s plugged into them, this comprehensive solution covers everything connected to your electrical system. This includes the hardwired appliances that power strips can’t protect, like your HVAC system, garage door opener, and security system.
A Smart Financial Decision
Avoid Costly Repairs and Replacements
Investing in a whole-home surge protector isn’t just about safety; it’s a wise financial decision that can save you a significant amount of money over the long term. The cost of replacing even one major appliance, like a refrigerator or an HVAC unit, can easily exceed the cost of having a professional surge protection system installed.
Power surges aren’t just caused by dramatic events like lightning. More frequent, smaller surges—known as transient surges—can occur from utility grid switching or from large appliances cycling on and off inside your home. These minor surges silently degrade the internal components of your electronics over time, shortening their lifespan and leading to premature failure.

Have Questions?
Frequently Asked Questions About Home Surge Protection
To help you make an informed decision, we’ve answered some of the most common questions our customers have about whole-home surge protection. If you don’t see your question here, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our knowledgeable team!
What is a whole-home surge protector?
A whole-home surge protector is a device installed at your electrical panel that blocks power surges from entering your home’s electrical wiring. It protects all of your outlets and hardwired appliances simultaneously, unlike single-outlet power strips.
Are power surges really that common?
Yes. While large surges from lightning are rare, smaller, damaging surges (transient surges) can happen dozens or even hundreds of times a day. They are caused by utility grid switching or large appliances in your home cycling on and off. These mini-surges degrade electronics over time.
Is a whole-home surge protector worth the investment?
Absolutely. The cost of replacing just one major appliance, like a refrigerator, TV, or computer, is often much higher than the cost of installing a whole-home surge protector. It’s an affordable insurance policy for all your electronic devices.
Will it protect my home from a direct lightning strike?
A whole-home surge protector offers a powerful defense against nearby lightning strikes that cause surges in the power lines. However, a direct strike on your home is an incredibly powerful event that no surge protector can fully guarantee against. It provides a very high level of protection against the most common surge-related threats.
How long does installation take?
In most cases, a professional installation by a licensed electrician takes only a couple of hours. It’s a quick and simple process that provides lasting protection.
