Transparent pricing means written quotes with no surprises.
Most Lykens homes date to 1938. Knob-and-tube remnants, fuse boxes, 60-amp service and ungrounded outlets are still common finds from that era, and none of it is unusual for a borough this age.
Not every call is a big project. A tripped breaker, a dead outlet, a ceiling fan that won't balance, our vans carry the parts for all of it. When the job is bigger, a 200-amp panel upgrade clears out an old fuse box for good, and custom lighting or a dedicated circuit come with a written price before we start.
Lykens Borough issues electrical permits under Pennsylvania's Uniform Construction Code. Like most municipalities in the county, it works with a third-party inspection agency rather than staffing its own building department. We pull the permit, schedule the inspection and fold the cost into your written quote, so nothing shows up as a surprise later.
PPL Electric Utilities is the primary utility here, with Met-Ed serving parts of the wider area. A service upgrade, panel swap or new meter means a scheduled disconnect and reconnect with whichever utility owns your line, and we handle that call. If the whole street loses power, that's a utility outage. If it's just your house, that's us, any hour.
Our Pennsylvania and New Jersey experts are ready to fix your electrical problems.

Klaus and Malcom arrived promptly. They were very courteous and respectful of the property. Their work was excellent and neatly done.. The job was challenging, but they kept working until the everything was completed, which was appreciated. The work done was clearly explained. I will definitely call again whenever we need electrical work done.

Kyle was prompt, helpful, and communicative. We called for emergency service and Kyle arrived within an hour and a half. The actual fix took less than five minutes. The pricing is high, and that's worth being upfront about. Nonetheless, the service was solid and efficient.

I am very happy with the work that Nassim performed in my house today. There were three things on my list and all three were fixed quickly and efficiently. One issue involved a hall light and porch light which had been a problem for years, made worse by a handyman, fixed by Nassim. Highly recommend.
