Electrician in East Lyme, CT

Serving East Lyme and the surrounding New London County towns including Colchester, Franklin and Bozrah.

Electrical services in East Lyme, CT

Daniels Electric Solutions covers the whole of East Lyme — residential repairs, planned installations, commercial fit-outs and 24-hour emergency work. Whether you are searching for a East Lyme electrician because a breaker will not reset, or looking for an electrical contractor in East Lyme 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 the north side of East Lyme and East Lyme Center 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.

What East Lyme customers say

★★★★★

Breaker kept tripping every time the dryer ran. They found a nicked conductor behind the wall rather than just swapping the breaker like the last guy did. That is the difference.

Tom V.East Lyme, CT
★★★★★

Dimmers that buzzed for two years. Wrong type for the fixtures. Ten minutes of explanation and a swap. Silent now.

Simone K.East Lyme, CT
★★★★★

Two dead circuits in a rental I own in East Lyme. They diagnosed, repaired, and sent me photos for my records the same day. Tenants happy, no follow-up call needed.

Electrician in East Lyme — 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 East Lyme do you cover?

All of East Lyme plus the neighbouring towns — Colchester, Franklin, Bozrah and the rest of New London 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 East Lyme?

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 East Lyme?

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 East Lyme?

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 East Lyme?

Yes. The phones are answered 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including holidays, and there is an on-call crew covering East Lyme and the surrounding New London 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 East Lyme?

Yes. Level 2 home chargers, Tesla Wall Connectors and other EVSE units, including the load calculation to confirm your panel can carry it. Most East Lyme installs are a single-day job. If capacity is tight we will tell you before you buy the charger, not after.
