Older Bergen County buildings hide a lot behind the plaster. Around Rutherford we regularly open a box and find ungrounded two-wire cable, a fuse panel still feeding part of the house, or circuits added by three different owners. None of that is unusual in North Jersey. The job is to trace it properly, fix what is unsafe first, and leave you with a panel schedule that finally matches the house.

What customers say

They put a sub panel in my detached garage with 240 volts for the compressor and welder. Trenched, wired and inspected inside a week.

Steve H., Vineland

Eight recessed lights in a finished ceiling and not one patch needed. They laid out the spacing with me first, and the dimmer does not flicker. The kitchen looks twice the size.

Linda W., Freehold

We had an inspection done before buying a 1920s house. The report was clear about what was urgent and what could wait, and nobody pushed us to do any of it.
