"Having just purchased a house, I wanted some small electrical work done: install a motion sensor front light, add outlets to the basement, repair one of the kitchen lights that wasn't working. Cayle came by to review the work with me and promptly e-mailed an estimate. He scheduled the work within a couple of weeks, adjusting his schedule to match mine. His worker, Kyle, arrived on time and completed all work to my satisfaction, checking each item and cleaning up completely. I am happy to know an electrician I can count on when I need service."

"I have found my forever electricians (at least while I live in the New Haven area)! From start to finish my experience with Power Forward was an absolute pleasure. Company owner, Ian, was responsive, punctual, and incredibly informative when it came to walking me through the details of the scope of work I was requesting, and was thoroughly transparent and fairly priced when it came to his estimate. Once we accepted the quote, scheduling with Morgan was easy and efficient, and Chris arrived onsite within a day of me accepting the estimate. Chris was a consummate professional, a super clean worker when it came to caring for our house and the cleanliness of his cable paths, and was truly dedicated to doing the job â the right wayâ not just the easy and cheap way. He took his time and planned his cable runs and circuiting carefully to ensure both minimal cutting into our walls and convenient receptacle placement. Once he was finished, he took care to clean every area heâ d worked in and probably left some of the rooms cleaner than when he arrived! I would recommend Ian and Power Forward to anyone who appreciates work that is done with care, safe, and efficient. I think you get what you pay for when it comes to hiring trade professionals, and electricity is not something you want to cut corners with: hire Ian and his team, and have it done right and safe the first time."

"The owner, Jordan, was on time. He reviewed the situation and proceeded to test the wiring to determine what was needed to correct the complex problem. He did not waste time, went right to work and efficiently installed junction boxes and additional wiring where needed. He worked with obvious professional experienced confidence. His pricing was as he explained prior to doing the work. I could not be more satisfied with the job that was done. I highly recommend LVR Electric. John Cianciolo"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Derby, CT

Electrical wiring can last between 50 and 70 years if properly installed and maintained. However, factors like moisture damage and overloading outlets can shorten this lifespan. To extend your wiring's life, unplug electronics when not in use, avoid overloading outlets, and schedule regular electrical inspections every five to ten years.

If your house was built in the 1960s and hasn't been rewired, it likely needs it. Older homes may have outdated wiring like knob-and-tube, which poses fire risks due to flammable insulation. Rewiring ensures safety and may also require updating your circuit panel, outlets, switches, and fixtures. Contact a local electrician to help with your rewiring needs.

Yes, rewiring your house is worth it, especially if your wiring is outdated. It improves safety by reducing fire risks and can increase your property's value. However, you may not need a full rewire. A home inspector can tell you if a partial rewire will bring your home up to code.

Yes, you can sometimes rewire a house without removing walls. Electricians might access wiring through attics, basements, or crawl spaces, or make small holes to run new wires. However, this isn't always possible, and in some cases, removing sections of walls is necessary to ensure the wiring is installed safely and meets code.

A house should typically be rewired every 25 years to maintain safety. Over time, wiring deteriorates, increasing fire risks. Regular electrical inspections every five to ten years help assess the need for rewiring. Staying proactive with maintenance ensures a safe, efficient electrical system and prevents potential hazards before they become serious issues.
