Services Our Electrician in Cranford Offers
Troubleshooting and Repairs
Dealing with flickering lights, breakers that keep tripping, a dead circuit, or a problem that only shows up when it rains? We test until we find the cause. Our service call is $189.99, and tracking it down past the panel starts at $239.99, with the price set before work begins.
Service Upgrades and Panel Work
Need an electric panel upgrade? Cranford grew fast between the 1920s and 1960, and many houses from those years still lean on a small panel. We handle panel upgrades, panel and meter replacement, and extra panels for additions and garages. If your panel sits low in a basement that has flooded, we will talk about moving it up.
Home EV Charger Wiring
Searching for an EV charger installer near me in Cranford? We install Level 2 chargers from every major brand after checking what your panel can carry, and the permit and inspection come with the job. We also replace GFCI outlets in kitchens, baths and outdoors and put in hardwired smoke detector and carbon monoxide alarms.
Lighting, Fixtures and New Wiring
Indoor and outdoor lighting, fan-rated boxes for ceiling fans, weatherproof outlets for the yard and new circuits run cleanly back to the panel, including separate circuits for sump pumps.
Quick Response and Emergency Repairs
Need an emergency electrician in Cranford? Sparking, burning smells, water near the panel, or power out in part of the house. We answer nights, weekends and holidays, and after-hours calls are a flat $389.99.
Generator Installation
In 2019, a substation failure left nearly 4,000 PSE&G customers in Cranford without power. A standby generator with an automatic transfer switch keeps your lights and sump pump running, and as an authorized Generac installer we size, install and test the whole setup.

Lighting Work We Do in Cranford
Light Fixtures
Many Cranford homes from the twenties through the fifties have rooms with little overhead light. We add or replace fixtures with a solid mount so they sit flat and stay put. For bright, even light without bulky fixtures, see our recessed lighting installation prices.
Chandeliers
Dining rooms, stair halls and the two-story entries in newer builds. A heavy fixture needs a ceiling mount that can hold it, the right lift and two people.
Outdoor Lighting
Landscape and path lighting, lights for the driveway, lanterns by the door and floodlights for the backyard. Outdoor work uses weatherproof parts on its own protected circuit.
“What can I say about these guys….short version is AWESOME!! I reached out to Marino for help with a commercial job we had in Cranford, NJ. He went above and beyond, client actually had him add additional lighting on the brick facade and everything was perfect. Communication was on point, I would recommend them to anyone in need for either residential or commercial needs in the NJ area.”
Why Cranford Homeowners Choose Us as Their Electrician
When you search for an electrician near me in Cranford, the river is part of the story. Hurricane Irene damaged more than 1,300 Cranford homes in 2011 when the Rahway River flooded, and many houses here are also old enough to need new wiring.
flood-Prone Basement Panels
If a basement panel has taken water before, we move it higher instead of putting a new one back in the same spot.
Sump and Backup Circuits
Sump pumps, backup pumps and their alarms need their own protected circuits. Losing one during a storm here can mean a flooded basement.
pre-War Wiring
Older Cranford houses can have wiring with no ground, cloth-insulated wiring and panels that ran out of room long ago.
Downtown Commercial Work
We also handle tenant fit-outs, lighting upgrades and code fixes for downtown shops and restaurants, alongside our home calls.
