FAQs
What's involved in adding an EV charging station to my Geneva home?
Installing an EV charging station starts with our licensed electricians assessing your home's electrical panel capacity, often in older Geneva homes. We ensure your system can handle the new load safely, performing any necessary upgrades like panel replacement or circuit installation. We handle all permits and install a dedicated circuit from the panel to your chosen location, typically a garage. This service is integrated, so if your remodeling project includes a new garage addition, we can seamlessly incorporate the charging station wiring from the start.
I'm planning a kitchen remodel and need new lighting and outlets. Can you handle both the construction and electrical?
Absolutely. As a combined general and electrical contractor, NorthStar manages the entire project. Our team will handle the demolition, cabinetry, and countertop installation for your kitchen remodel. Simultaneously, our electricians will update wiring, install new code-compliant GFCI outlets, add under-cabinet lighting, and place fixtures based on your design. This single-source approach eliminates coordination issues between separate contractors, keeps your project on one timeline, and ensures all electrical work is fully integrated into the new construction.
My attic lights keep flickering or tripping a breaker. Is this a common issue in Geneva homes, and can you fix it?
Yes, short circuits and faults in attic wiring are a frequent issue we see in Geneva, especially in older homes where insulation may have settled on wiring or where past DIY work wasn't to code. Our electricians are experienced in diagnosing these problems. We safely inspect the attic wiring, identify the fault—whether it's damaged insulation, a faulty connection, or an overloaded circuit—and perform the necessary repair or replacement. We also advise on preventive measures, like proper wire securing and insulation barriers, to prevent future issues.
