Q&A

My home in Queens is older and has aging wiring. What should I look out for?

In many of Queens' classic homes, aging wiring can be a significant safety concern. We frequently find issues like brittle insulation, outdated fuse boxes, and circuits that can't handle modern electrical loads. Our team is experienced in inspecting these older systems. We can identify potential hazards like rodent damage—a common problem here—and provide clear recommendations for safe upgrades that meet current electrical codes, ensuring your home's safety and reliability.

Can you install a complete outdoor lighting system?

Absolutely. We handle all aspects of outdoor lighting installation for Queens homes and businesses. This includes planning the layout for optimal security and ambiance, running safe, weatherproof wiring, and installing durable fixtures like flood lights and pathway lighting. We ensure the installation is up to code and integrates properly with your home's existing electrical system, providing enhanced safety and curb appeal.

What's involved in upgrading my electrical panel or circuit breaker?

Upgrading a panel is a major project we handle regularly. It often involves replacing an old fuse box or a panel that's at capacity with a new circuit breaker panel that has higher amperage (like upgrading from 100 to 200 amps). This allows for more circuits to safely power modern appliances and devices. Our union-trained electricians manage the entire process—from securing permits to meticulous installation and final inspection—ensuring everything is safe, reliable, and meets all local Queens code requirements.
