Residential and commercial electrical work in Chelsea: panel upgrades, rewiring, lighting, EV chargers, generators, outlets and emergency repair. Fixed price before we start.

We handle residential and commercial electrical work across the board — repairs, installations, panel upgrades, rewires, EV chargers, generators and lighting.

Both. In Chelsea we run residential repairs and installs during the day and commercial work in the evenings and at weekends so businesses do not have to close. The pricing approach is identical.
For common jobs — an outlet, a fan, a GFCI, a breaker swap — yes, often on the first call. For panels, rewires, EV chargers and anything involving the service entrance, we need eyes on it, because a phone quote on those is a guess and guesses turn into surprise invoices.
Cards, bank transfer and cash. For larger projects in Chelsea we work to a simple schedule of payments tied to milestones, agreed in writing before we start.
