A breaker that keeps tripping, a switch that feels warm to the touch, an outlet that stopped working on one side — these things get written off as minor annoyances until they aren’t. In older homes across Tolland County, electrical issues usually come down to a few common causes.
⬩➤ Wiring that has deteriorated over time
⬩➤ Loose or failing electrical connections
⬩➤ Incorrect work that was never properly fixed
For many homeowners, it’s not one major issue — it’s a buildup of smaller problems. Left alone, they become expensive. Some become dangerous.
We Find the Cause — Not Just the Symptom
When we come out, we’re not just fixing what’s visible — we figure out what actually caused it. We’ve tracked down wiring faults, corrected panel issues, and repaired outlets and fixtures that were installed incorrectly in homes throughout the area.
Every job starts with a clear estimate covering the work before anything begins. If something additional comes up, we update the estimate and get your approval before moving forward — no surprises.

Something’s off — lights dimming, outlets acting up, breakers tripping without a clear cause — and you need to know why. We track down electrical issues in homes and businesses across Tolland County and give you a clear answer on what’s wrong and what it takes to fix it.
A home inspection flagged electrical issues and now the deal depends on getting them fixed before closing. We handle inspection repair lists for homes throughout Tolland County — code corrections, outdated wiring concerns, panel deficiencies, and anything else the inspector noted.
Homes with old fuse panels often run into capacity issues and insurance problems that make them hard to keep or sell. We replace fuse boxes with modern breaker panels across Tolland County, handling permits and making sure everything is up to code.
Knob and tube wiring is outdated, runs hot, and can make it difficult to insure or safely maintain a home. We remove and replace these systems in older Tolland County homes, bringing the wiring up to current code.
GFCI outlets are required anywhere near water, and when they’re missing or not working, it becomes both a safety issue and a code problem. We install and repair GFCI outlets across Tolland County and make sure the circuit is properly protected.
A proper repair fixes the cause — not just the thing you called about.
Finding the Source, Not the Symptom
A tripping breaker or dead outlet signals a deeper issue — and fixing only the symptom means the problem will come back, often worse.
Older Wiring? Different Approach
Homes built before 1980 often use aluminum, cloth-insulated, or knob-and-tube wiring, and working on these systems requires experience.
Permits Matter — Even for Repairs
Panel work, service changes, and new circuits often require permits in Connecticut, and skipping them can cause issues during a sale or insurance claim.
One-Year Warranty on Materials
The materials we install are backed by a one-year warranty — if something fails, we come back and fix it without hassle.

As a family-run business, our reputation means everything to us. We show up when we say we will, complete the work properly and safely, and leave your home clean and secure when the job is done—here’s what local homeowners have said about working with us.

We start with what you're seeing — what's happening, when it happens, whether it's in one area or all over the house. From there we work through the system: panel, circuits, connections, fixtures. Most problems have a pretty clear trail once you know what to look for, and after 40 years of doing this around Tolland County, we've tracked down a lot of them. We tell you what we found and what it'll take to fix it before we do anything
No. Estimates are free and cover all costs — labor, materials, and any permit fees that apply. We come out, look at the problem, and give you a number before any work starts. If we find something additional once we're into the repair, we stop, update the estimate, and get your approval before continuing. You won't get a bill that doesn't match what you agreed to.
Yes, that's work we do regularly. Inspection repair lists typically include things like GFCI outlet corrections, panel deficiencies, missing cover plates, improper wiring, or code violations that have been present for years. We go through the list, fix what needs fixing, and can provide documentation of the completed work if your buyer or their agent needs it. Call 860-872-2366 and we'll get it scheduled — we know closing timelines don't move for anyone.
