Electrical services in Cheshire, CT
Daniels Electric Solutions covers the whole of Cheshire — residential repairs, planned installations, commercial fit-outs and 24-hour emergency work. Whether you are searching for a Cheshire electrician because a breaker will not reset, or looking for an electrical contractor in Cheshire to price a panel upgrade and an EV charger, you get the same thing: a straight diagnosis, one flat number, and a crew that turns up inside the window we gave you.
We work in west Cheshire and the Cheshire town line regularly, so we know the housing stock here — the panels that were fitted in the sixties and never touched, the ungrounded two-prong circuits, the additions wired by someone's cousin. That matters because it makes diagnosis faster, and diagnosis is what you are really paying for.

Flat price, your decision
You get one number covering parts, labour and cleanup. Nothing goes ahead until you say yes, and the number does not move afterwards. - 4

What Cheshire customers say
Basement finish: circuits, outlets, egress lighting, the lot. Straight pricing and they pulled the permit so I didn't have to work out the Cheshire paperwork.
We run a small restaurant and could not close. They did our whole kitchen circuit rework overnight and we opened on time. No overtime charge either.
Two dead circuits in a rental I own in Cheshire. They diagnosed, repaired, and sent me photos for my records the same day. Tenants happy, no follow-up call needed.
Electrician in Cheshire — questions we get asked
Do you do small jobs, or is there a minimum?
Small jobs are welcome. A single outlet, one switch, a ceiling fan swap — we will come out for it. If you have a list of small items, bundle them into one visit and you pay one call-out instead of several.
What areas around Cheshire do you cover?
All of Cheshire plus the neighbouring towns — Branford, Derby, Bethany and the rest of New Haven County. We cover every city and town in Connecticut, so if you are just over a town line you are still inside our service area.
Do you offer generator installation in Cheshire?
Yes — standby and whole-house generators, including sizing, pad or bracket mounting, the automatic transfer switch, and load testing. Connecticut outages tend to be storm-driven and can run long, so we size for the circuits you actually need rather than selling you the biggest unit on the shelf.
How much does an electrician charge in Cheshire?
We price the job, not the hour. A small repair like a dead outlet or a failed switch is a modest flat fee; a panel upgrade or an EV charger install is a fixed project price. Either way you approve one number before anything starts, and that number covers parts, labour and cleanup. Call (833) 652-8933 for a real figure on your job.
Do you pull permits for electrical work in Cheshire?
When the work requires a permit, yes, we pull it and we meet the inspector. Panel upgrades, service changes, new circuits, rewiring and EV charger installs typically need one. Small like-for-like repairs usually do not. We will tell you which category your job falls into during the quote.
Do you offer 24 hour emergency electrician service in Cheshire?
Yes. The phones are answered 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including holidays, and there is an on-call crew covering Cheshire and the surrounding New Haven County towns. If you have no power, a sparking outlet, a burning smell or a breaker that will not reset, call (833) 652-8933 and ask for the emergency line. We do not add an after-hours surcharge.
Do you install EV chargers in Cheshire?
Yes. Level 2 home chargers, Tesla Wall Connectors and other EVSE units, including the load calculation to confirm your panel can carry it. Most Cheshire installs are a single-day job. If capacity is tight we will tell you before you buy the charger, not after.
