Panel Upgrades

Older Pittsburgh homes often run on outdated electrical panels that cannot keep up with modern demand. We upgrade service panels and subpanels to safely handle today loads.

Why it matters: A panel upgrade prevents overloaded circuits, frequent breaker trips, and fire risk, especially in pre-1980 Pittsburgh homes.

Outlet & Switch Repairs

Loose outlets, dead switches, and two-prong receptacles replaced or repaired. We also install GFCI outlets in kitchens, baths, and outdoor areas to meet current code.

Why it matters: Faulty outlets are a common hazard in older homes. GFCI protection is required by code in wet areas and protects your family from shock.

Ceiling Fan Installation

Ceiling fan installs, replacements, and balanced mounting with proper box support. We handle fans with lights and remote controls.

Why it matters: A properly supported fan box prevents wobble and ceiling damage, and correct wiring keeps lights and controls working safely.

Whole-Home Rewiring

Complete or partial rewiring for older Pittsburgh homes with aging knob-and-tube or aluminum wiring. We plan around your living situation to minimize disruption.

Why it matters: Old wiring degrades over decades and is a leading cause of house fires. Rewiring brings your home up to code and supports modern appliances.

EV Charger Installation

Level 2 EV charger installation for garages and driveways, including new dedicated circuits, load calculations, and charger mounting.

Why it matters: A dedicated circuit means safe, fast charging for your electric vehicle without overloading your existing panel.

Lighting Upgrades

Recessed lighting, fixture upgrades, outdoor and security lighting, and LED conversions for interior and exterior spaces.

Why it matters: Better lighting improves safety, comfort, and energy efficiency. LED upgrades lower your electric bill and reduce maintenance.

Generator Hookups

Portable and standby generator connections, transfer switch installation, and load management setup so your home stays powered during outages.

Why it matters: Pittsburgh winter storms and summer outages can leave homes without power. A proper transfer switch keeps backup power safe and code-compliant.

Commercial Electrical Work

Electrical work for small businesses, retail spaces, and offices in Pittsburgh, including new circuits, lighting, troubleshooting, and maintenance contracts.

Why it matters: Downtime costs money. We keep your business running with reliable commercial wiring and prompt service calls.
