What Does a Residential Electrician Do?

Our residential electricians specialize in installing, repairing, and maintaining electrical systems in private homes, apartments, and condos. Our job is to ensure your home’s power supply is safe, efficient, and ready to handle all of your day-to-day needs.

Here are some of the common tasks that we’re called on to handle:

• Installing new wiring and circuits: Whether you’re renovating, building an addition, or upgrading your electrical panel, our electricians handle the safe installation of all residential electrical wiring.
• Repairing electrical issues: From fixing faulty outlets and switches to identifying the cause of power loss or flickering lights, our electricians troubleshoot and resolve household electrical problems.
• Upgrading electrical panels: Older homes may require panel upgrades to handle modern power demands, especially for new appliances, EV chargers, or home offices.
• Installing fixtures and devices: Residential electrical installations may include ceiling fans, recessed lighting, smart thermostats, outlets, outdoor lighting, and more.
• Safety inspections: Many homeowners hire electricians for electrical inspections before buying or selling a home, or as part of routine home maintenance.

What Is a Master Residential Electrician?

A master electrician is a highly skilled and licensed professional who has reached the highest level of certification in the electrical trade. To become a master electrician, the contractor must complete extensive training, pass rigorous exams, and accumulate several years of hands-on experience. Our team holds both a contractors license and a master license.

In residential settings, our master electricians might oversee whole-home rewiring, electrical panel upgrades, major system installations, or code corrections. Our advanced training and licensing make us trusted for the most technically demanding or safety-critical electrical work.

Which Residential Electrical Services Require a Permit?

Many residential electrical projects require a permit to ensure the work is inspected, up to code, and performed safely. Permits protect homeowners by verifying that electrical installations or modifications meet local building and safety regulations.

Working without a permit can lead to fines, safety risks, and complications when selling your home. Unpermitted work may also void homeowners insurance if an electrical fire or injury occurs. Our licensed electricians will know when a permit is needed and handle the process on your behalf.

Some of the common electrical services that typically require a permit include:

• Electrical panel upgrades or replacements
• Whole home rewiring jobs
• Installing new circuits

• Adding or replacing outlets in wet areas
• Installing EV chargers or generators
• New construction or major renovations
