Garage electrical installation in Carteret: common questions

Do garage outlets need GFCI protection?

Yes. All standard garage receptacles do.

Can you run power to a detached garage?

Yes. We trench a feeder from the house and fit a sub panel.

A Level 2 charger needs its own circuit. We check the panel and run one.

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

Half the house went dark on a Sunday night. They picked up on the second ring, told me which breaker to switch off and had someone here that evening. It was a burnt connection in the panel, fixed on the spot.
