We have extensive experience upgrading old knob-and-tube wiring, replacing outdated fuse boxes with modern electrical panels, and adding sufficient circuits to handle modern electrical loads.

What's included in a residential electrical inspection in Greenpoint?
A comprehensive electrical inspection covers your entire electrical system from the main panel to individual outlets and switches. We check for code violations, safety hazards, outdated components, and potential fire risks throughout your home.
The inspection includes testing all outlets and switches, examining the electrical panel for proper labeling and capacity, checking GFCI protection in bathrooms and kitchens, and evaluating the overall condition of visible wiring. You’ll receive a detailed report of any issues found and recommendations for repairs or upgrades.
This service is particularly valuable in Greenpoint where many homes have electrical systems installed decades ago. The inspection helps identify problems before they become dangerous and gives you a clear picture of what electrical work your home may need.
Can you install smart home electrical devices in older Greenpoint homes?
Smart home installations are definitely possible in older Greenpoint homes, though they may require some electrical upgrades first. Many smart devices need neutral wires at switch locations, which older homes sometimes lack, or require dedicated circuits for proper operation.
We assess your current electrical system and determine what updates are needed to support your smart home goals. This might include adding neutral wires, installing additional circuits, or upgrading your electrical panel to handle increased electrical loads.
Common smart home installations include smart thermostats, automated lighting systems, smart outlets, security cameras, and whole-home automation systems. We ensure all installations are done safely and that your electrical system can reliably support these modern conveniences.
How much does residential electrical work cost in Greenpoint?
Electrical work costs vary significantly based on the scope of work, materials needed, and complexity of the job. Simple repairs like outlet replacement might cost $100-200, while major projects like panel upgrades can range from $1,500-4,000 depending on the specific requirements.
We provide upfront estimates before starting any work, so you know exactly what you’re paying before the work begins. There are no hidden fees or surprise charges – the estimate you receive is what you’ll pay unless you approve additional work.
For accurate pricing on your specific project, the best approach is to call for a free estimate. We can often provide ballpark pricing over the phone for common repairs, and more complex projects get a detailed written estimate after an on-site evaluation.
