Inviting someone to work on your electrical system is a big decision. You are trusting them with the safety and reliability of your home or business, and you want to know they are qualified.

Residential Electrician Services for Derry Homes

At home, electrical issues touch nearly every part of daily life. When lights flicker, outlets feel warm, or breakers keep tripping, it can be stressful and inconvenient, and it can also point to safety problems that should not be ignored. Our residential electrician Derry services are designed to address these concerns quickly while keeping your family and property safe.

Repairs, Upgrades & Code-Compliant Work

We handle a wide range of residential electrical work. This includes troubleshooting and repairs, wiring and rewiring, panel upgrades, lighting design and installation, and electrical work for renovations and additions. Many homes in and around Derry have older electrical panels or wiring that were not designed for today’s appliances, electronics, and comfort systems. We help you understand what needs attention now and what can be planned for the future.

Lighting upgrades are another frequent request. Whether you want recessed lighting, under-cabinet lighting in the kitchen, improved exterior lighting for security, or more efficient LED fixtures, our team can recommend options and install them to current code. We also assist with adding outlets, dedicated circuits for high-demand appliances, and upgrades to support home offices and entertainment systems.

Planning For Weather & Power Reliability

Storms and harsh weather in southern New Hampshire can lead to power quality issues, such as surges or repeated short outages. We can evaluate your panel and surge protection, discuss options for backup power, and suggest improvements that help protect sensitive equipment. For all residential work, we provide free, upfront estimates and explain the scope clearly before you decide how to move forward.

Commercial Electrical Contractor Support

For small businesses, offices, and commercial properties, electrical problems do more than cause inconvenience. They can interrupt operations, affect customers, and impact revenue. We support local businesses in and around Derry with dependable commercial electrical services that keep systems running as smoothly as possible.

Services For Offices, Retail & Light Commercial Spaces

Our team works with a variety of commercial spaces, including retail stores, professional offices, and light industrial or service facilities. Typical projects include new circuits for equipment, lighting upgrades that improve visibility and efficiency, panel changes, troubleshooting power issues, and electrical work for tenant fit-outs. As a commercial electrical contractor Derry businesses can call with confidence, we understand the need to coordinate work with your schedule and minimize downtime whenever we can.

Scheduling, Safety & Ongoing Support

Because we are licensed and insured for commercial projects, building owners and property managers can feel comfortable involving us in upgrades, inspections, and recurring maintenance plans. We discuss access requirements, scheduling needs, and any special considerations for your operations during our initial visit. For problems that arise outside standard hours, our 24/7 emergency service helps you address power failures, damaged circuits, or critical equipment issues that need rapid attention.

Throughout each commercial project, we work to keep communication clear. You receive an upfront estimate, explanations of any code issues we find, and updates if conditions on site reveal additional work that may be advisable. Our goal is to help your business stay safe, functional, and ready for inspections or future expansion.

Backup Power, EV Chargers & Modern Electrical Upgrades

Many property owners in southern New Hampshire are planning ahead by investing in backup power, electric vehicle charging, and other modern electrical upgrades. These projects require careful planning and a team that understands both the products involved and your existing electrical system. At Garneau Electric, we help you evaluate options and complete installations with safety and reliability in mind.

Whole-Home Generators & Backup Power

We are an authorized Generac dealer, which means we work closely with whole-home generator systems on a regular basis. If you are concerned about outages caused by storms or grid issues, we can discuss suitable generator options, coordinate the electrical side of the installation, and explain how the system integrates with your panel. Our electricians handle the wiring, transfer switches, and related electrical components while keeping code requirements and future maintenance in mind.

EV Chargers & Solar-Related Electrical Work

We also install EV charging solutions for homes and small businesses. When you add an electric vehicle, you may need a dedicated circuit or a panel upgrade to support faster charging safely. Our team reviews your current electrical capacity, discusses your driving and charging habits, and recommends a setup that fits your situation. By planning this properly, you reduce the risk of overloaded circuits and inconvenient charging times.

For clients who are adding solar, we can take care of the necessary electrical wiring and panel connections on your property. We coordinate our work so that the electrical portion of the project is completed to code and ready for inspection. Because upgrades like generators, EV chargers, and major panel work often represent a significant investment, we offer financing options and payment plans to make these projects more manageable. In many cases, our Club Membership can also provide added value with extended warranties and periodic safety checks.

What To Do When You Notice an Electrical Problem

Electrical issues can range from small annoyances to situations that may pose safety risks. Knowing what to do in the first moments can help you stay safe while you arrange for a professional to take a closer look. If something does not seem right with your power, it is always better to proceed carefully and ask questions.

Warning Signs You Should Not Ignore

Common warning signs include a strong burning or melting smell near outlets or fixtures, outlets or switches that feel hot to the touch, frequent breaker trips, lights that dim when appliances start, or parts of your home losing power for no obvious reason. If you notice any of these, consider switching off the affected breaker in your panel if you can do so safely, and avoid using the affected outlets, fixtures, or appliances until an electrician Derry residents trust can investigate.

Safe Next Steps Before We Arrive

We strongly recommend avoiding do-it-yourself work inside electrical panels or on wiring that is concealed in walls or ceilings. Even experienced homeowners can face serious risks without the right training and equipment. It is safer to call our team and describe what you are seeing and hearing. We can help you decide whether the situation calls for emergency service or a scheduled visit.

When you contact us, it helps to share details such as when the problem started, what changed just before it appeared, and whether any part of your home or business has lost power completely. Our team uses that information to prepare for your visit and bring any specialized tools or materials that may be needed. Once on site, we provide a free, upfront estimate so you understand the likely cause, recommended fix, and cost before we begin repairs.

How Our Electrical Service Process Works

Uncertainty about how a service visit will unfold can keep people from calling, even when they need help. We keep our process clear and predictable so you know what to expect from first contact to final cleanup. From the moment you reach out, our office staff and technicians work together to make the experience as straightforward as possible.

From First Call To On-Site Visit

When you call or submit a request online, we gather basic information about your property, the issue you are experiencing, and your scheduling needs. We then set up an appointment time and, for urgent problems, discuss emergency or same-day options if they are available. On the day of your visit, our electrician arrives, introduces themselves, and reviews your concerns with you before starting any diagnostic work.

Clear Estimates, Pricing & Follow-Up

After assessing the situation, we explain what we found in plain language and present a free, upfront estimate for the recommended work. You will see the scope and price before anything proceeds. If there are alternative approaches, we describe them so you can make an informed decision. Our pricing is designed so that you are not surprised at the end of the job, and payment is collected once the work is completed correctly.

For projects where warranties on select services apply, we explain what is covered and how to access support if you have questions later. Clients who join our Club Membership program receive additional benefits, including exclusive discounts, extended warranty coverage on qualifying work, priority scheduling, and annual electrical safety evaluations. Throughout your experience, our goal is to keep communication clear and respectful so you always know the next step.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are your electricians licensed and insured for work in Derry?

Yes, our team is licensed to perform electrical work in New Hampshire, and we are fully insured for both residential and commercial projects. We also hold licensing in Massachusetts, which is important for clients who own property across state lines or near the border. For you, this means the work we perform is carried out by a licensed electrician Derry property owners can depend on for code-compliant installations and repairs. Being insured adds another layer of protection for your home or business. If you ever have questions about our credentials, we are happy to discuss them during your estimate.

How fast can your team respond to an electrical emergency?

We offer 24/7 emergency electrical repairs, and our goal is to respond as quickly as possible when a situation cannot wait. Response time can depend on factors such as the time of day, your location, and whether technicians are already on other emergency calls. When you contact us about an urgent issue, we will let you know what the current availability looks like and help you decide whether emergency dispatch or a rapid scheduled visit is the best fit. Same-day appointments are often available for serious but non-emergency problems, particularly during regular business hours. In every case, we work to keep you updated so you know when to expect our electrician.

What will my electrical service cost and when do I see the price?

Before any work begins, we provide a free, upfront estimate that outlines the recommended repairs or upgrades and the associated costs. The total price depends on several factors, including the type of issue, the time involved to diagnose and correct it, and any materials or equipment required. We discuss this estimate with you on site so you can ask questions and consider your options. You approve the scope and price before we move forward, which helps avoid surprise charges. For larger projects, we can also talk about financing options and payment plans to spread the cost out in a way that works better for your budget.

Can you help with installing a home generator or EV charger?

We regularly help homeowners and small businesses plan and install home generators and EV charging solutions. As an authorized Generac dealer, we handle the electrical portion of whole-home generator systems and can recommend generator options that work well with your property’s layout and panel capacity. For EV chargers, we evaluate your current electrical system, look at the demands of your vehicle and driving habits, and suggest an installation plan that supports safe and efficient charging. These projects sometimes require panel upgrades or new dedicated circuits, which we can include in the estimate. During your consultation, we will walk through the steps, from planning to final inspection, so you know what to expect.

What should I do before your electrician arrives?

You usually do not need to do much before we arrive, but a few small steps can make the visit smoother. If possible, clear access to your electrical panel, affected outlets or fixtures, and any areas where you know there are issues. It can also help to jot down when the problem started, how often it happens, and whether any specific appliances or weather events seem related. If you have pets, securing them in another room can make it easier and safer for everyone while we work. When our technician gets there, they will review your concerns with you before beginning any testing or repair.

Do you offer any warranties or maintenance plans?

We offer warranties on select services, and we are always happy to explain what is covered for your particular project. In addition, our Club Membership program is designed for clients who want ongoing value and regular safety checks. Members receive benefits such as exclusive discounts on certain services, extended warranty coverage on qualifying work, priority booking, and annual electrical safety evaluations. This type of plan can be especially helpful for long-term homeowners and businesses that want a consistent point of contact for their electrical needs. If you are interested, we can review the membership details during your service visit or estimate.

Can I finance a larger electrical project like a panel upgrade?

Yes, we have financing options and payment plans available for larger electrical projects such as panel upgrades, generator installations, or extensive wiring work. The specific terms can vary based on project size and the options you choose, and we will discuss them with you once we have evaluated your needs. Financing can be a helpful way to address important safety or capacity issues without delaying necessary work. During your free estimate, our team can provide an overview of available payment approaches so you can select what fits your budget and timeline.
