Easton Electrical Company handles electrical work for homeowners, landlords, property managers, and commercial clients across Easton and Northampton County. The range covers everyday repairs and the larger jobs: panel upgrades, full rewiring, EV charger installation, dedicated circuits, and backup generator hookups. Whether a single outlet has stopped working or a building needs its service entrance brought up to current capacity, we scope the job on the call, explain what it involves, and confirm the price before anything is scheduled. One call is enough to get the visit booked.
Seeing flickering lights or a warm outlet? Those are the calls we get most often, and they cover a wide range of underlying faults. A circuit breaker that keeps tripping, a buzzing panel, a burning smell near an outlet, a section of the house with no power, sparking receptacles, outlets that have simply stopped working - each one points to something specific, and finding that specific cause is what a diagnostic visit is for.
When we arrive, we work through the circuit systematically: checking the panel, testing the affected outlets and switches, looking at GFCI and AFCI protection where it applies, and tracing the fault to its source. We keep you informed from diagnosis to final test, so you know what we found, what fixing it involves, and what it will cost before we touch anything.
We find it. We fix it. We test it.
The homes and wiring in this area have their own quirks, and panels are a good example. Older panels in Northampton County often run at 100 amps or less, which made sense decades ago but falls short when a household adds an EV charger, a home office, or a new appliance load. When a panel is undersized, outdated, or simply worn out, the work involves more than swapping breakers.
We handle the full range: breaker repair and replacement, panel replacement, 100-amp to 200-amp upgrades, service-entrance upgrades, and subpanel installation where a detached garage or workshop needs its own feed. Load calculations are part of the scoping process, so the upgrade is sized for what the property actually draws, not just what fits in the enclosure. Electrical work done to the standard the next inspection expects is the baseline, and that applies whether we are replacing a single breaker or pulling a new service entrance.
Easton has a substantial stock of older homes, and older homes come with wiring that reflects when they were built. Knob-and-tube wiring, aluminum branch circuits, panels with fuse blocks instead of breakers, grounding that was never installed or was done incorrectly - these are common findings in houses built before the 1970s, and they show up regularly in properties across the Northampton County area.
Electrical work here gets handled by people who answer to this community. When we rewire an older home, the work covers the full scope: replacing knob-and-tube runs, remediating aluminum wiring at the connections and outlets, installing proper grounding and bonding, and bringing the circuits up to current code. We also handle wiring for additions, basement finishing, garage conversions, and workshop circuits, where new work has to tie cleanly into whatever is already in the walls.
We know schedules shift, so we keep booking flexible, and that applies to rewiring projects as much as to repair calls. A whole-house rewire is a significant job, and the scope varies depending on what is already in the walls. Some properties need a full replacement from panel to outlets. Others need targeted work: a section of exposed wiring repaired, a basement circuit added, a garage run brought up to code. We walk through what the property needs before any work is quoted, and the price reflects the actual scope rather than a round number.
Code-compliant wiring and proper grounding are part of every job, not an add-on. If the work requires a permit, we handle that side of it as part of the project.
Outlet and switch work covers more ground than a simple replacement. GFCI outlets are required in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and outdoor locations, and AFCI protection applies to bedroom circuits and a growing number of living areas under current code. We install, replace, and test both, along with standard outlets, USB outlets, 240-volt receptacles, and dimmer switches. If an outlet is warm to the touch, discolored, or has stopped working entirely, that is a fault to diagnose before anything else is replaced.
Light fixture installation and replacement is one of the more common residential requests we handle. Recessed lighting, under-cabinet lighting, outdoor and security lighting, motion-sensor fixtures, and landscape lighting wiring all fall within the scope of what we do. Ceiling fan installation and wiring is another frequent call, particularly in older homes where a ceiling box was never rated for a fan. We confirm the box, the wiring, and the switch before the fixture goes up. Call us and we'll walk you through the fix.
Scheduling a service call is simple, and the same applies when the job involves a new circuit rather than a repair. Dedicated circuits for dryers, ranges, refrigerators, and other large appliances require a direct run from the panel, the right wire gauge, and a breaker sized to the load. We handle the full installation: the circuit run, the outlet, and the panel connection.
EV charger installation follows the same process. A Level 2 home charging station runs on a 240-volt dedicated circuit, and the first step is a panel capacity check to confirm the service can carry the added load. If the panel needs an upgrade before the charger goes in, we scope both jobs together so the work is done in the right order.
Whole-home surge protection installs at the panel and covers every circuit in the house. Modern electronics, appliances, and HVAC equipment are all vulnerable to voltage spikes, and a panel-mounted surge protector is the most complete solution available. We test every circuit. We label every breaker. We leave it safe.
The wiring done properly, start to finish, is what makes the difference between a circuit that holds and one that causes problems later.
Power outages in Northampton County are a real consideration, particularly during storm season. A backup generator is only useful if it is connected correctly, and the electrical side of that connection involves more than running an extension cord from the porch.
A proper generator hookup uses a transfer switch, which isolates the home's circuits from the utility line before the generator takes over. That isolation is what prevents back-feed onto the grid, and it is required for any generator installation that feeds the panel. We install transfer switches, run the dedicated circuit from the panel to the generator connection point, and confirm the panel has the capacity to carry the loads the generator will supply. The work is scoped and priced before it starts. One call gets the problem looked at properly.
We know schedules shift, so we keep booking flexible, and that matters for property managers and commercial clients who are working around tenants and business hours. We handle office electrical work, retail electrical installation, commercial wiring, commercial lighting, and outlet installation for commercial spaces. For landlords and property managers, that includes electrical code violation repair, failed inspection follow-up, and pre-rental electrical safety inspections.
Electrical safety inspections are also common for pre-purchase due diligence: a full inspection covers the panel, the wiring, the outlets, the grounding, and any visible code issues, and the findings are explained before any repair work is quoted. The scope of the electrical work priced before it starts means there is nothing left to negotiate after the inspection is complete.
We cover Easton as our primary service area and work throughout Northampton County. That includes Bethlehem, Wilson, Palmer Township, Forks Township, Phillipsburg, Tatamy, and Nazareth, along with the communities in between. If you are in the area and need electrical work handled, we are available every day from 7:30 AM to 9:30 PM. For urgent faults, calls are answered within those hours and short-notice work is taken when the schedule allows.
Book the visit. Know the scope. Know the price before it starts.
We keep booking flexible and can work around short-notice requests for faults that cannot wait. When you call, we ask about the symptoms, the property type, and what you have already noticed. That conversation lets us confirm what the visit will cover and give you a price before anything is scheduled. There is no separate estimate appointment: the scope and the rate are settled on the call.
If the job turns out to be larger than the initial description, we explain what changed and what it costs before we proceed. Reach out and we'll get it diagnosed.
Easton has a substantial stock of homes built before the 1950s, and we see knob-and-tube wiring, aluminum branch circuits, ungrounded outlets, and undersized panels regularly in this area. That background shapes how we approach a diagnostic visit in an older home, because the presenting symptom and the underlying cause are not always the same thing.
You reach someone who knows the trade and can scope the job on the phone. We ask about the symptoms, the property, and what you have already noticed, and we work through the scope with you before anything is scheduled.
We work for homeowners, landlords, property managers, and commercial clients across Easton and Northampton County. The jobs range from a single outlet repair in a rental unit to a full rewiring project in an older home or a panel upgrade in a commercial building.
We take calls every day from 7:30 AM to 9:30 PM. For urgent faults, calls are answered within those hours and short-notice work is taken when the schedule allows. When you call, we work through the scope on the same call and confirm what is available.
Write down what you noticed: which outlets or lights are affected, whether a breaker tripped, any sounds or smells near a receptacle or panel, and when the problem started. That detail helps us scope the job on the call and give you a more accurate price before the visit.
The wiring behind the symptom varies by how old the home is, what type of wiring is in the walls, and whether previous work was done correctly. A dead outlet in a newer home and a dead outlet in a 1920s row house in Easton can involve completely different underlying causes and different scopes of repair.
