Since 2014, Jim & Sons Electric has provided reliable electrical installation services throughout Philadelphia and the surrounding counties. Whether updating a rowhome, wiring a new build, or adding modern lighting to an office, we bring licensed and insured workmanship to every project.

We understand that electrical projects can feel complicated, especially when permits and inspections are required. That’s why we take the time to explain each step of the process, so you know what’s happening and why it matters. We offer free estimates, priority scheduling for urgent needs, and a one-year parts and labor warranty that stands behind the quality of our work.

Electrical Components We Install

Our team handles everything from small upgrades to full system installations. We install electrical panels and circuit breakers, indoor and recessed lighting, ceiling fans and ventilation fixtures, new wiring for additions or remodels, outlets, switches, and GFCI devices, dedicated circuits for appliances and electronics, and EV chargers for all property types.

Why Work with a Licensed Electrician?

Electrical work is one of those areas where DIY can be risky. While it may seem like a way to save money, improper installations can create serious hazards and cost more in the long run.

When you hire Jim & Sons Electric, you get:

  • Safety you can trust. Correct wiring reduces the risk of fire, shocks, and long-term system damage.
  • Code-compliant work. Many projects in Philadelphia require permits and inspections, and we handle that process for you.
  • Efficient service. What could take a homeowner several weekends is often completed in a single visit by our licensed electricians.
  • Long-term reliability. Professional installation means fewer recurring issues and greater value for your property.

With us, you don’t just get the work done, you get it done right.

Modern Electrical Upgrades & Smart Technology

Many property owners are modernizing with energy-efficient recessed lighting, smart switches and thermostats, backup generators, and dedicated circuits for EV chargers or home offices. These upgrades improve convenience, energy efficiency, and overall property value.

At Jim & Sons Electric, we install equipment that prepares your property for the future.

Electrical Installation FAQs

How do I know if my Philadelphia home needs new wiring before installation?

Older homes may still use knob-and-tube or other outdated wiring. Signs include frequent breaker trips, flickering lights, or outlets that don’t hold plugs securely. A licensed electrician can assess your system during an assessment.

What permits are required for electrical installation in Philadelphia?

Projects such as panel upgrades, rewiring, or adding new circuits require permits through Philadelphia. As licensed contractors, we handle permitting and complete all work to the current code.

Can you install energy-efficient lighting for older homes?

Yes. LED recessed lighting and upgraded fixtures improve visibility, reduce energy use, and make older rowhomes safer and more functional.

How long does an installation usually take?

Timelines depend on the project. A ceiling fan or outlet installation may take under an hour, while panel upgrades or wiring projects may require a full day or more. We provide clear scheduling details upfront.

Do you install electrical systems for commercial properties?

Yes. In addition to residential installations, we handle small businesses, retail spaces, and offices throughout Philadelphia and nearby counties.
