What That Means for Electrical Work in Saginaw

Saginaw's housing is old: half its homes were built before 1949, seven in ten before 1960, and four in ten before 1940, while only about 5 percent are from 2000 or later. That means many houses still run on fuse boxes or small 60 and 100 amp services, with ungrounded outlets, cloth-covered wiring and circuits that have been extended piece by piece for decades. Panel upgrades, grounded circuits for kitchens and bathrooms, and working smoke detectors are the core of the work here. Most homes heat with natural gas.

  • Seven in ten homes were built before 1960, the third-highest share on this site after Bay City and Essexville.
  • Four in ten homes are rented, tied with Hampton Township and Coleman for the highest share on this site.
  • Saginaw is roughly 20 miles from Midland; calling ahead to confirm scheduling for your address is a good idea.

Common Questions

Does Select Electric serve the city of Saginaw?

Yes. Saginaw is in Select Electric's service area. It's a drive from Midland, so call (989) 835-3587 to confirm scheduling for your address.

My Saginaw house has two-prong outlets. Is that a problem?

Two-prong outlets usually mean there's no ground wire, which matters for computers, surge protectors, and kitchen and bathroom safety. Swapping in three-prong outlets without a ground isn't a fix. An electrician can add grounded circuits or install GFCI protection where code allows it.
