24-Hour Electricians Serving Villanova, PA

Aluminum branch wiring fails at its connections, not along the wire. Over the decades the metal expands, contracts and loosens under screw terminals. The signs are a warm cover plate, a flickering light or a faint burnt smell at an outlet. In Villanova, we open the boxes, remake each joint with connectors rated for aluminum and replace any scorched device. A full rewire is rare.

The panel is the other 1961 leftover. Federal Pacific and Zinsco breakers can fail to trip, so we replace those panels instead of repairing them. A healthy 100-amp panel might stay, unless you want a Level 2 EV charger or a heat pump. Then 200 amps makes more sense.

Storms matter here too. The remnants of Hurricane Ida cut power and flooded parts of Delaware County in September 2021. A standby generator with an automatic transfer switch keeps a Villanova house running through the next long outage, and as a certified Generac dealer, we size, install and service them.

Our electricians work for Thomas Edison Electric directly, never as subcontractors, and each one leaves from home with a stocked TEE van. The written quote comes first. If we arrive late, the dispatch fee is on us.
