Much of Union County was built before 1960: colonials, capes, two-family houses and brick apartment buildings with plaster walls. For an electrician that usually means 60 or 100 amp service, a mix of old cloth-covered cable and newer wire, and panels that were never meant to carry central air, an induction range and a car charger at the same time. We see it every week around Plainfield and we plan the work around it.

What customers say

Salt air had eaten our outdoor outlets and the meter box. They replaced everything with gear made for the shore and checked the rest of the service while they were here.
Mike T., Atlantic City

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

Our house had aluminum wiring and the outlets were getting warm. They went through every box in the house and explained both options and the price for each. Very straight with us.
