Our Services

What We Do

Generator Installation

When PECO goes down in a summer storm or a nor'easter, a standby generator keeps your heat, fridge, and lights running on their own. Sizing, fuel lines, the transfer switch, and permits all have to be handled right, and that's exactly what we do. Anthony walks you through the options that fit your home and budget before any work starts. Most installs finish in a day or two, with a free estimate up front.

Electric Panel Upgrade

Electric Panel Upgrade

Many homes around Collingdale still run on 60 to 100 amp panels or old fuse boxes that were never built for today's appliances, AC, and EV chargers. Warm breakers, flickering lights, and constant trips are signs your panel is maxed out. We replace old panels with modern 200 amp service, done to code with permits pulled. Most panel swaps take one day, and your power is back on that evening.

House Rewiring

House Rewiring

A lot of Delco's pre-1930s rowhomes still have knob and tube or aluminum wiring behind the walls. Insurance companies flag it, and it's a real fire risk. Anthony has rewired these exact homes for 16 years and knows how to do it with as little wall damage as possible, room by room if needed. Start with a free wiring inspection so you know what you have and what it costs to fix.

General Electrician Services

General Electrician Services

Not every job is a big project. Dead outlets, crackling switches, ceiling fans, new light fixtures, and outdoor lighting are the everyday calls that keep a house working, and plenty of electricians won't bother with them. We treat the small stuff with the same care as a panel swap: a call back in about 5 minutes, no trip fee, and the price approved before work starts. Most jobs are done in one visit, because the truck already carries the parts.

Electric vehicle charging station contractor

Charging your EV from a regular outlet is slow, and many Delco panels can't handle a charger without an upgrade. A.V. Electric installs Level 2 chargers for Tesla and every other EV brand, plus the dedicated circuit to power them safely. One visit covers the estimate, the panel check, and the plan, whether you're in Collingdale or King of Prussia.

Security system installation service

Package theft and break-ins are real worries on Delco's tight rowhome blocks. A.V. Electric installs video doorbells, wired and wireless cameras, and full NVR systems so you can watch your porch, your car, and your back alley from your phone. Clean installs with hidden wiring, set up and working before we leave.

FAQ

Common Questions

How much does an electrician cost in Collingdale?

It depends on the job. A small outlet repair costs far less than a panel swap or a whole house rewire. Every job starts with a free estimate, and you'll know the full price before any work begins. There's no trip fee to get a number.

Do you charge to come out and look?

No. Estimates are free and there's no trip fee. You only pay when we do the work, and you approve the price first.

How fast can you get here?

Call and you'll hear back in about 5 minutes during open hours. We're open 8am to 5pm, 7 days a week, and can often get to you same day or next day depending on the schedule.

Are you licensed? Do you pull permits?

Yes. A.V. Electric partners with a licensed Electrical Contractor on every job. Permits get pulled where required, and the work is done to code and inspected. You get the paperwork to prove it.

My house still has knob and tube wiring. Is that a problem?

It's common in Collingdale homes built before 1930, and yes, it matters. Many insurance companies won't cover homes with knob and tube, and old wiring is a fire risk. A free wiring inspection shows you what you have and what replacement costs.

What if I'm not happy with the work?

Anthony makes it right. Satisfaction is guaranteed, and that's not fine print. Sixteen years of repeat customers in Delco came from honest prices and clean work.
