The Thomas Edison difference
A New Philadelphia electrician from Thomas Edison Electric is a direct employee, not a subcontractor, and answers 24/7. New Philadelphia, ZIP 17959, is a borough of 975 people in Schuylkill County, next to Cumbola, 1.3 miles, and Middleport, 1.7.
PA license PA075449 and full insurance stand behind every job we take on here. Financing is available if you ask, and if we run late, we waive the dispatch fee. Call 610-777-7600, any hour of the day.
A written report on the panel, the wiring and the outlets, useful for either side of a New Philadelphia home sale.

Wherever it survives, we isolate it and remove what is no longer safe.
We confirm which utility serves your address before scheduling any upgrade.

Transparent pricing means written quotes with no surprises.
Buying or selling a house in New Philadelphia usually means an electrical question comes up somewhere in the process, and that is no surprise given the housing here dates to 1938 on average. Knob-and-tube wiring remnants, an old fuse box and outlets with no ground are the three things we look for first.
An electrical safety inspection puts all three in writing before closing, with a price attached to whatever needs fixing. If the panel itself is the issue, a breaker panel upgrade usually resolves the rest at the same time.
Port Carbon and Brockton both sit 3.2 miles from New Philadelphia, and Saint Clair is 3.9.
PPL Electric Utilities covers part of New Philadelphia, with St. Clair Borough Electric handling the remainder, so we check which one reaches your meter before booking a disconnect or reconnect. Once that is settled, the permit side is simple enough: Pennsylvania's Uniform Construction Code governs the work, and like most boroughs in the county, New Philadelphia relies on an outside inspection agency rather than a building department of its own.
We take care of both halves, the permit and the utility scheduling, as part of any panel upgrade or rewire. The wiring, the panel and every outlet past your meter are our responsibility at any hour. A downed line outside belongs to the utility. Reach us at 610-777-7600.
Our Pennsylvania and New Jersey experts are ready to resolve your electrical woes.

Mike from Thomas Edison Electric replaced our out-of-service-life whole-house surge protectors and repaired a lighting fixture for our deck. He did an excellent professional job. He didn't try to sell us things we didn't need. I highly recommend Mike.

Absolutely thrilled with our electrician Dennis! He was very knowledgeable and polite. Made this process very easy and stress free. We had two light fixtures put in along with an exhaust fan, cleaned up after and everything. Highly recommend this company and their electrician!
