At Elite Home Remodeling Group, LLC, we specialize in Kitchen and Bath Remodeling--is your premier remodeling company for all your home improvement needs. With over 14 years in the industry, we are dedicated to success and looking forward to doing business with you.

"The Elite Home Remodeling Group did a phenomenal job. We live in a late 1800’s farm house close to DC. Most of the plumbing and electrical work is original. The job started out as just a plumbing project to fix a leaking pipe but after taking with Sydney about every we needed it turned into a plumbing project, a dining room repair and refresh. Angel and his team were punctual and professional. They made sure that my husband and I knew what they were doing and why as they moved through our project. Access to other parts of our home were blocked off to reduce the dust and debris. The project was completed efficiently and with minimal disruption to our daily routine. It took two days even with the additional work we requested. My husband and I couldn’t be happier with our new plumbing and beautiful dining room. We will definitely be using the Elite Home Remodeling Group again."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

After electrical work in Alexandria, ongoing maintenance is essential for safety and code compliance. Test GFCI outlets every three months, inspect panels for corrosion, and replace smoke detector batteries annually. The City of Alexandria Code Administration recommends checking outdoor wiring seasonally and ensuring circuits aren't overloaded. Staying proactive with these tasks helps maintain compliance with local electrical code and extends the lifespan of your system.

Helpful?

In Alexandria, most electrical projects—including new installations, major upgrades, and renovations—require permits issued by the City of Alexandria Code Administration. Permit applications are processed through the APEX system, and fees vary based on project type and value. Projects in historic districts must also receive approval from the Board of Architectural Review. Always consult the City of Alexandria and the Virginia Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation for current electrical code requirements.

Helpful?

In Alexandria, minor electrical repairs might be handled DIY, but most projects require a licensed electrician to comply with the City of Alexandria's permitting and inspection process. DIY work risks code violations, failed inspections, and potential safety hazards. Hiring a local professional ensures compliance with the Virginia electrical code, protects your insurance coverage, and helps avoid costly mistakes—especially for complex or historic property projects.

Helpful?

For electrical projects in Alexandria, select materials that comply with the latest Virginia electrical code. Use THHN/THWN wires for durability and moisture resistance, and install GFCI outlets in kitchens and bathrooms as required by local code. For historic homes, flexible conduit may be necessary to accommodate older structures. Sourcing materials from suppliers familiar with Alexandria's permit requirements ensures your project meets inspection standards.

Helpful?

In Alexandria, common mistakes include skipping required permits, using incorrect wire gauge, and failing to meet grounding standards. These errors can result in failed inspections, fire hazards, or insurance issues. According to the City of Alexandria Code Administration, always verify your project meets the latest electrical code, double-check all connections, and secure proper permits before starting any electrical work to ensure safety and compliance.
