R&J Brothers Electric - New Milford's Experienced Electrical Services

In New Milford's many older homes, frequent short circuits are often caused by outdated electrical panels or worn, degraded wiring that can't handle modern power demands. Our most common solution is a thorough inspection of your panel and circuits. We'll check for overloaded breakers, faulty wiring, and insufficient grounding—common issues in historic homes. Based on our findings, we typically recommend either a targeted repair of the specific faulty circuit or, for homes with recurring problems, an upgrade to a modern electrical panel. This provides safer, more reliable power for your family and appliances.

While DIY repairs might seem like a quick solution, improper electrical work is a leading cause of home fires. As licensed professionals with over 20 years of experience, we ensure all repairs meet strict National Electrical Code (NEC) and local New Milford safety standards. A tripping breaker is often a symptom of a deeper issue, like an overloaded circuit, a short, or a failing panel. We diagnose the root cause safely, using the proper tools and testing equipment, to provide a lasting fix that protects your home and family. It’s an investment in safety and peace of mind.

Absolutely. We are experienced in installing electric vehicle (EV) charging stations for homes throughout New Milford. The installation starts with an assessment of your home's existing electrical panel to ensure it can support the added demand. For many homes, this is a straightforward process. If an upgrade is needed, we can handle the entire project—from installing a new, higher-capacity panel to running the dedicated circuit and mounting the charging unit. We'll ensure the installation is permitted and inspected according to local codes, so you can charge your vehicle safely and efficiently at home.
