"After doing some research, I had a preliminary view of what needed to be done and the cost of the material for the work. Then, I contacted 5 electricians to get written estimates for the work. Four of the electricians quoted a price that was more expensive than Glenn. One electrician suggested replacing my current 200 AMP, 30-circuit electrical panel that was maxed out at 38 circuits, with a 40-circuit panel thereby only gaining 2 additional slots. Another electrician suggested instead installing a 100 AMP, 20-circuit sub-panel, which was the correct recommendation, per my research. Glenn also suggested this approach, so I immediately knew that I was dealing with a straight shooter. While price was an important part of the decision making process for selecting an electrician, price was not the only reason I decided to go with Glenn. Of course, he had outstanding reviews on Angle’s list (A ratings only), but of all of the electricians, he was the MOST thorough and MOST detailed at exploring what needed to be done and he explained everything step by step ... he also asked a lot of questions and analyzed my current electrical setup before making a recommendation. He provided a very comprehensive recommendation with 3 different options for me to choose from that provided an efficient sub- panel set up that was also cost efficient, but all 3 recommendations solved my problem. I decided to go with a 100 AMP 20 circuit sub-panel that will provide me with plenty room to expand in the future. Glenn completed all work in 2 days and I was extremely pleased with the job he did. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable regarding his trade, he is also very professional, quite personable; a very nice person. It was a pleasure to work with him and as I told him after the job was completed, he will be "my electrician guy" going forward. I "highly" recommend Glenn ... simply put, he is OUTSTANDING!!"

"These guys were super professional and easy to be around. Were good at explaining what they were doing so i could understand.  Didn't ruin my garden where they were working outside the house.  Every time they came in the house, they put on little scrub-type-booties over their workboots!  Owner, John, brought them lunch, then stayed to inspect and personally help with labelling the new electric panel (which many electricians fail to do at all).  I highly, highly recommend these guys.

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Upgrading your home’s electrical system in Glenside can significantly boost both value and buyer interest, especially in older properties. Projects like panel upgrades, modern home wiring, and adding GFCI or USB outlets are highly attractive to today’s buyers. Installing smart home features or EV charging stations can help your Glenside property stand out in a competitive market, appealing to tech-savvy buyers and those seeking energy efficiency.

Helpful?

Before starting electrical work in Glenside, schedule a thorough inspection to identify outdated wiring or hidden hazards. Obtain multiple quotes from licensed electrical contractors familiar with local housing styles. Check if your project requires permits and plan for possible testing for asbestos or lead in older homes. Ensure clear access to work areas, allow time for required inspections, and budget for unexpected discoveries during the project.

Helpful?

In Glenside, electrical projects can reveal hidden costs such as permit fees, code-required upgrades, or remediation for outdated wiring and hazardous materials like asbestos or lead. You may also encounter expenses for panel relocation, utility service line adjustments, or repairing plaster walls common in historic homes. Tight crawlspaces and coordinating with HVAC systems can add labor time, so it’s wise to budget for these possibilities.

Helpful?

New Glenside homeowners should begin with a comprehensive electrical inspection, especially if the home features original wiring or fuse boxes. Prioritize upgrading the electrical panel, adding GFCI outlets in kitchens and bathrooms, and hardwiring smoke detectors. Improving outdoor lighting, updating attic or basement wiring, and ensuring circuits can handle modern appliances are smart steps for safety and convenience in Glenside’s older homes.

Helpful?

Common habits that can reduce the lifespan of electrical work in Glenside include overloading circuits with space heaters or multiple devices, ignoring moisture in basements, and using extension cords as permanent wiring. DIY electrical repairs without professional help, neglecting outdoor outlet maintenance, and running large appliances on outdated circuits can also cause premature wear. Address flickering lights promptly and keep access to electrical panels clear.
