Transparent pricing means written quotes with no surprises.
Lansford runs on a single utility, which keeps things simple. PPL Electric Utilities bills the whole borough, so a service upgrade or meter move has one process, not several. We handle that coordination directly.
Most Lansford homes date to 1938, so knob-and-tube remnants, 60-amp fuse boxes and ungrounded outlets are common finds behind the walls. Summit Hill sits just 0.8 miles off, close enough that our crews often work both boroughs the same day.
Our electricians are direct employees, not subcontractors, dispatching from their own homes across Carbon County.
A pre-sale inspection in Lansford almost always turns up the same three things. First, two-prong outlets with no ground, which we fix with a proper ground or GFCI protection.
Second, the panel. A 60-amp fuse box was standard in 1938, and a 200-amp upgrade replaces it while adding room for central air or an EV charger.
Third, knob-and-tube wiring in the older sections of the house. We trace it before recommending anything, since not every run needs to come out. An attic fan is a common add-on once the basics are handled.
Lansford Borough issues electrical permits under Pennsylvania's Uniform Construction Code, working with a third-party inspection agency instead of running its own building department. We pull the permit, book the inspection and walk the job with the inspector.
PPL Electric Utilities serves all of Lansford. A service upgrade, meter move or panel swap goes through PPL, and we book the disconnect and reconnect so the work happens in one day. A downed line after a storm is PPL's repair. Everything from the meter into the house 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!

Had a back up generator installed by Dennis. He did a wonderful job. Dennis is very knowledgeable, thorough, patient and goes above and beyond. Will definitely be using Thomas Edison for all my electrical. Could not be happier.

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!

Lansford Electrical FAQs
Yes. We answer 24/7, 365 days a year, and our electricians live around Carbon County rather than driving in from somewhere else. They arrive in a fully stocked TEE van ready to make the repair that visit. Call 610-782-9000 anytime.
It means those circuits likely have no ground, common in homes built around 1938. A ground protects you and your electronics when something faults. We can usually add a proper ground, or protect the outlet with a GFCI device instead, depending on the wiring behind it.
Both, and everything between them. Summit Hill sits well under a mile from Lansford, and our electricians work both boroughs regularly, along with Nesquehoning, Beaver Meadows and the towns further out. One call covers the area.
We size it to your house, pull the permit, and install it with an automatic transfer switch so it kicks in during an outage. As a certified Generac dealer we handle the equipment and the setup, with the quote in writing before we start.
Use our online scheduler or call us anytime, 24/7
