"S & S Electric did a fantastic job. They were friendly, knowledgeable, efficient and their price was better than all competitors'. They cleaned up after themselves, they did some extra work without trying to nickel and dime me. I am very happy with the work they performed and will gladly use them again."

Customers say: True professional

"They first came a few weeks prior to replace some breakers since I was having issues with my lights and told me about the damage that was happening due to a leaky outside cable coming into the circuit breaker.  They also showed me the damage and explained it thoroughly to me.  They let me know it wasn't something I had to do immediately but would need to be done.
I requested a quote and they came out again to give me an estimate.  I then booked them to come out and was given a date and time along with letting me know I would be without power for 4-5 hours.
They arrived as scheduled and the job was done in about 5 hours at the cost quoted.
They were friendly, professional, prompt, and responsive.  I would definitely recommend them for any electrical issues.

"David did an amazing job. He called me very quickly after I signed up on Angi. He set up a time to do the job within 4 days. He got both jobs done in a very short amount of time. His price was really reasonable. I would not hesitate to hire David again!"

"Best experience I’ve had so far being a homeowner. TIm D was very knowledgeable didn’t try to force me to do something else that I didn’t want or make sense to do. I’m actually considering doing my central air sooner than later because of the great finance options they have available. Which is why I didn’t complete the C-wire service it only makes sense to do it all at once under one invoice."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

New homeowners in Barrington should prioritize a comprehensive home electrical inspection to assess the condition of wiring and the electrical panel. Upgrading to GFCI and AFCI protection, especially in kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoor areas, is vital. Weatherproofing outdoor outlets and installing whole-house surge protection help guard against coastal moisture and storms. Always verify that all upgrades meet local permit requirements for safety and compliance.

Helpful?

Homeowners in Barrington often overlook the need for proper permits before starting electrical projects, risking delays or safety issues. Choosing standard materials instead of those rated for coastal environments can lead to premature wear. Skipping upgrades like GFCI or AFCI protection, especially in older homes, is another common mistake. Consulting a local electrical contractor early helps avoid these pitfalls and ensures compliance with RI regulations.

Helpful?

Barrington’s coastal weather means salt air and high humidity can accelerate corrosion of electrical components, making marine-grade materials essential for outdoor outlets and fixtures. Seasonal storms and nor’easters increase the risk of power surges, so surge protection is highly recommended. Additionally, fluctuating water tables and frozen ground in winter can affect the timing and safety of electrical work, requiring careful planning by local professionals.

Helpful?

When reviewing quotes from electrical contractors in Barrington, watch for vague descriptions of work, missing details about outdoor electrical safety, or a lack of mention of required permits. Unusually low estimates may mean the contractor is unfamiliar with Barrington’s coastal challenges, such as salt air corrosion. Always ask for recent local references and ensure the contractor understands RI’s electrical codes and climate-specific requirements.

Helpful?

In Barrington, watch for flickering lights during humid weather, corrosion on outdoor outlets, or moisture inside electrical panels—these often signal climate-related wear. Frequent tripped breakers, persistent burning odors, or outlets that feel warm can indicate outdated wiring or overloaded circuits. Scheduling a home electrical inspection when these signs appear can help prevent more extensive repairs and ensure safety.
