100A → 200A upgrades, sub-panels, and full service replacements. Permitted, inspected, and built for the loads modern homes actually pull.
USB-C receptacles, GFCI & AFCI replacements, smart switches, and tamper-resistant outlets — installed clean, level, and to current code.
Brace boxes, fan-rated supports, recessed lighting, and statement fixtures — properly anchored, balanced, and wired to last.
From a 240V garage circuit to a hardwired Wallbox or NACS unit, we'll spec the right amperage for your panel and your driving — permits, inspections, and rebate paperwork included.
Knob-and-tube, aluminum, and tired old wiring — replaced room-by-room with minimal drywall damage.
Pre-purchase inspections, insurance reports, and full home audits. We document every finding with photos and a clear plan to fix it.

Pennsylvania-licensed electrical contractor with $1M general liability and full workers' comp coverage.
Born and raised in West Chester. We know the housing stock, the inspectors, and what survives a real Pennsylvania winter.
Every quote is itemized and fixed before we lift a tool. No hourly meter, no surprise add-ons at sign-off.
If a job's worth doing, it's worth permitting. We don't cut corners on people's homes — full stop.

05Projects
A small selection of jobs across Chester County — every one permitted, inspected, and walked-through with the homeowner before we left.
Twelve low-voltage fixtures on a transformer with photocell + astronomic timer. Up-lit specimen trees, grazed siding, and a soft wash on the entry. All connections direct-buried, gel-filled, and labeled at the panel.
200-amp service replacement with new meter base, exterior emergency disconnect, and code-compliant grounding. Coordinated the cut-and-reconnect with PECO so the homeowner was off power for under three hours.
Free2move charger on a dedicated 50-amp circuit, fed from the main panel with a clean conduit run across the garage stud bay. Plug-in install so the homeowner can take it with them when they move.
