FAQs
What residential electrical services do you offer in McDonald?
Our team handles every aspect of home electrical work, including new-construction wiring, whole-house rewiring, service-panel upgrades, interior and exterior lighting design, ceiling-fan installation, EV-charger circuits, surge protection, generator interlocks, hot-tub and pool wiring, smoke/CO detector placement, and troubleshooting of tripped breakers, flickering lights, or dead outlets. Whether you need a single fixture installed or a complete electrical overhaul, we can tailor a solution that meets local McDonald code requirements and your budget.
Are you licensed and insured to perform commercial electrical work in Pennsylvania?
Yes. We hold a current Pennsylvania electrical contractor’s license and carry $2 million in general liability coverage plus full workers’ compensation for every technician on site. We stay up to date with NEC revisions, McDonald borough ordinances, and OSHA safety standards. Proof of licensing and certificates of insurance are provided with every proposal so property managers and business owners can hire us with confidence.
How fast can you respond to electrical emergencies in the McDonald area?
For critical issues such as power loss, burning smells, sparking panels, or storm damage, we offer 24/7 emergency dispatch. A qualified electrician is typically on site within 60–90 minutes anywhere in the McDonald, Midway, and South Fayette region. Our service vehicles are stocked with common breakers, fuses, wire, connectors, and diagnostic equipment so most hazards can be neutralized and repaired in a single visit.
Do you provide free estimates for electrical installations or upgrades?
Absolutely. We offer no-obligation, on-site assessments for both residential and commercial projects. After inspecting the existing wiring, load requirements, and code constraints, we deliver a detailed, itemized quote that outlines labor, materials, permit fees, and projected timelines. There are no hidden charges, and the price you approve is the price you pay unless scope changes are authorized in writing.
What energy-efficient solutions can you install to lower my electric bills?
We specialize in LED lighting retrofits, occupancy and daylight sensors, smart thermostats, Energy Star appliance circuits, high-efficiency motor controls, and power-factor–correction devices. For businesses, we design lighting-control panels and VFD (variable-frequency drive) upgrades that can cut energy consumption by up to 30 %. For homeowners, integrating dimmers, smart switches, and solar-ready combiner panels prepares your property for future renewable installations while reducing monthly costs today.
How will I know when my electrical panel needs to be upgraded or replaced?
Common warning signs include frequent breaker trips, warm panel covers, buzzing noises, flickering lights when large appliances start, limited open breaker spaces, or panels older than 25–30 years (especially Federal Pacific, Zinsco, or fuse boxes). During a service call, we perform thermal imaging, load calculations, and fault-current analysis to determine if a 100-amp, 150-amp, or 200-amp upgrade is needed. Replacing an obsolete panel improves safety, increases capacity for modern electronics, and is often required by insurers before issuing or renewing a policy.
