The Thomas Edison difference
Catawissa electrician calls, from a flickering light to a dead panel, come to Thomas Edison Electric. We work across Columbia County, and our crews dispatch from their own homes in the area. Catawissa borough carries ZIP 17820, with Bloomsburg 3.6 miles off, Numidia 5.8 and Lightstreet 6.5.
You get a direct TEE employee, not a subcontractor. They dispatch from home in a fully stocked van. We hold PA075449 and full insurance, and we have completed over 37,000 jobs since 2021. Call 570-648-8800 any hour, holidays included. The quote is written before work starts, and a late arrival waives the dispatch fee.
Knob-and-tube remnants and fuse boxes are common in Catawissa. We identify them before quoting anything.
PPL or Catawissa Borough Electric, we confirm which one serves your address.
No subcontractors work under the TEE name in Catawissa.
The price you approve is the price you pay.
We keep the arrival window we give you.
Over 37,000 jobs completed since 2021, financing available if needed.
We're dedicated to building lasting relationships with every customer through exceptional service and guaranteed results.

Transparent pricing means written quotes with no surprises.
Catawissa's typical home dates to 1946, and houses that age commonly still carry knob-and-tube remnants, fuse boxes and 60-amp service. An electrical safety inspection checks for all three before we recommend anything, then we handle what actually needs fixing, from a 200-amp panel upgrade to grounding old outlets.
Catawissa is one of the few boroughs in the county with its own electric department, Catawissa Borough Electric, alongside PPL Electric Utilities. We confirm which one bills your address before scheduling a service upgrade, so the paperwork goes to the right place the first time.
Catawissa's electrical permits fall under the state's Uniform Construction Code. The borough, like most of Columbia County, hands plan review and inspection to a third-party agency instead of staffing its own building department.
PPL Electric Utilities serves part of Catawissa, and the borough's own electric department serves the rest. A service upgrade means confirming which one bills you, then scheduling the disconnect and reconnect at the meter. Whichever it is, the meter is the line: everything before it is theirs, everything after it is ours.
Our Pennsylvania and New Jersey experts are ready to resolve your electrical woes.

I was really impressed with Don and Engeli and the work they performed for me. We had a discussion on the best way to run the new line for the septic pump and I really appreciated the extra effort they made to keep the esthetic of my home's exterior. They were pleasant and professional and all my fans and lights work great! They were patient and waited until I approved everything. A great team!

Technician came out within an hour for an investigation late at night. The same technician came back the next morning and replaced the breaker panel, meter box, and ran new conduit up to the roof for the connections. Did a fantastic job and everything looks great. Thanks Arthur and Malcolm for your hard work!
