Electrical services in Fairfield, CT
Daniels Electric Solutions covers the whole of Fairfield — residential repairs, planned installations, commercial fit-outs and 24-hour emergency work. Whether you are searching for a Fairfield electrician because a breaker will not reset, or looking for an electrical contractor in Fairfield 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 Fairfield Center and downtown Fairfield 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 Fairfield customers say
EV charger and an outdoor outlet in one trip so I only paid one call-out. Small thing but I noticed.
Ceiling fans in three bedrooms, one with no existing box. They braced it properly rather than hanging it off the drywall. No wobble.
Dimmers that buzzed for two years. Wrong type for the fixtures. Ten minutes of explanation and a swap. Silent now.
Electrician in Fairfield — questions we get asked
Do you offer 24 hour emergency electrician service in Fairfield?
Yes. The phones are answered 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including holidays, and there is an on-call crew covering Fairfield and the surrounding Fairfield 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 work on both homes and businesses in Fairfield?
Both. On the residential side we do repairs, panel upgrades, rewiring, lighting, EV chargers and generators. On the commercial side we handle offices, retail units, restaurants, warehouses and small industrial spaces in Fairfield, including evening and overnight work so you do not have to close during trading hours.
My breaker keeps tripping. Is that an emergency?
It depends on the pattern. A breaker that trips once when you overload a circuit is doing its job. A breaker that trips repeatedly, trips with nothing plugged in, feels hot, or will not reset at all is telling you there is a fault in the wiring — that is worth a same-day visit. If you smell anything burning, stop using the circuit and call (833) 652-8933 now.
Do you pull permits for electrical work in Fairfield?
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.
Can you rewire a house without tearing it apart?
Mostly, yes. In older Fairfield homes we fish new runs through existing cavities, use attic and basement routes, and open only where we have to — then patch what we open. Whole-house rewiring is usually staged floor by floor so you can keep living there while it happens.
How do I book an electrician in Fairfield?
Call (833) 652-8933 at any hour and describe what is happening. For anything urgent we dispatch from that call. For planned work we agree a date and a two-hour window on the spot, and you get a text confirmation.
How much does an electrician charge in Fairfield?
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.
