The Thomas Edison difference

Your Electricians in Pike County

Thomas Edison Electric's Pike County electricians treat this county as part of home turf. Our crews cover Milford, Matamoras, Hawley, Paupack and Tafton, and reach out to Dingmans Ferry, Bushkill and Shohola too. We handle the same calls here that we handle anywhere. That means dead circuits, tired panels, new outlets, and the occasional squirrel that found the wrong wire.

We hold PA license PA075449, carry full insurance, and have completed over 37,000 jobs since 2021. You get a written quote before we start, and if we show up late, the dispatch fee is on us.

Fully stocked vans

Our electricians dispatch from home with the parts on board, so a call in Milford or Matamoras does not turn into a supply run.

Three utilities, one call

Whether PPL, Pike County Light & Power or Penelec feeds your meter, we coordinate the utility side of a service upgrade for you.

Storm-ready

Wooded lots around Paupack, Hawley and Shohola lose power when trees come down, and we size and install standby generators built for that.

Around the clock

We answer 24/7, 365 days a year, including nights, weekends and holidays, because breakers do not check the calendar.

Written quotes first

You see the price on paper before any work starts, with no surprise charges added at the end.

Licensed and insured

PA license PA075449, fully insured, and rated 4.8 stars on Google by homeowners across the county.

Electrical Service Across Pike County

We treat Pike County as local work, because for our electricians it is. They live in the region and dispatch from their own homes. Their TEE vans come stocked for the job you described on the phone. That matters on a wooded lot in Lackawaxen or Greentown, where a parts run can eat an afternoon.

Electric service here is split among a few providers. PPL Electric Utilities is the largest, Pike County Light & Power serves one part of the county, and Penelec serves another. When you need a service upgrade or meter work, we coordinate the disconnect and reconnect with whichever utility feeds your home. If the power is out on the pole side, that call is theirs. Everything from the meter into the house is ours.

Pike County is heavily wooded, and trees take down lines here more often than in most places during storms. That is why generator installs and whole-home surge protection are two of our steadiest jobs in the county. We also cover Monroe County and Wayne County. If you have family in either one, we can help there too.

Common Electrical Projects in Pike County Homes

The typical Pike County home dates to the mid 1980s, which is good news. Copper branch wiring is standard, and most houses came with a 100 amp or 150 amp panel. The catch is what is inside that panel. Some brands sold in that era, including Federal Pacific and Zinsco, are now recalled because their breakers can fail to trip. If you have never had yours looked at, an electrical safety inspection is a cheap way to find out.

Other projects we see often around the county:

  • Panel upgrades to 200 amps for homes adding heat pumps, hot tubs or a second kitchen.

  • Backup generators with automatic transfer switches for wooded lots that lose power in storms.

  • EV charger installation in garages built long before anyone plugged in a car.

  • Dedicated circuits for well pumps, sump pumps and workshop tools.

Permits, Inspections and Your Utility in Pike County

Pennsylvania issues electrical permits under the state Uniform Construction Code. Most townships in Pike County do not run their own building department. They contract with a third-party inspection agency, so the paperwork and the inspector differ from Milford to Dingmans Ferry to Greentown. You do not need to sort that out. We pull the permit through your municipality, schedule the inspection, and meet the inspector on site.

Your utility matters on any job that touches the meter or the service entrance. Pike County homes are fed by PPL Electric Utilities, Pike County Light & Power or Penelec, depending on where you are. For a panel upgrade or a new service, we arrange the disconnect and reconnect with your provider. We also handle the meter work to their standards. If the lights are out and your neighbors are dark too, call the utility first. If it is just your house, call us.

Electrical service

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!

Pike County Electrical FAQs

Do you really come out to Pike County at night?

Yes. We run 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, and Pike County is inside our regular service area. Nights, weekends and holidays get the same response as a Tuesday afternoon. The electrician who comes out is one of our own employees, on call from home. We give you an honest arrival window on the phone, and we waive the dispatch fee if we miss it.

My house was built in the 1980s. Should I be worried about the panel?

Not worried, but curious. Homes from that era in Pike County usually have solid copper wiring and a 100 amp or 150 amp service. The concern is specific panel brands from that period that were later recalled. A quick inspection tells you whether yours is one of them, and if it is, a replacement is a routine job for us.

Who do I call when the power goes out?

If the whole road is dark, that is a utility problem. Call PPL, Pike County Light & Power or Penelec, whichever one sends your bill. Your neighbors might have power while you do not, or only part of your house might be out. Either way, the problem is likely on your side of the meter. That is our job, any hour.

Can you install a generator at a seasonal home in Paupack or Tafton?

Yes, and we do a lot of them in Pike County. A standby generator with an automatic transfer switch keeps the heat, the sump pump and the refrigerator running. It works even when nobody is there to start it. We size the unit to your panel, handle the permit, and coordinate any utility work that the install requires.
