Electrical services in Hartford, CT
Daniels Electric Solutions covers the whole of Hartford — residential repairs, planned installations, commercial fit-outs and 24-hour emergency work. Whether you are searching for a Hartford electrician because a breaker will not reset, or looking for an electrical contractor in Hartford 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 east Hartford and downtown Hartford 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 Hartford customers say
EV charger and an outdoor outlet in one trip so I only paid one call-out. Small thing but I noticed.
Called three Hartford electricians. Daniels was the only one who gave me a time and kept it. Job was fine too, but the showing up is the rare part.
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.
Electrician in Hartford — questions we get asked
Do you offer generator installation in Hartford?
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.
Can you help with a home inspection or closing deadline in Hartford?
Yes. We do pre-purchase electrical inspections with a written report and photos, and we handle inspection punch-lists for Hartford closings — GFCI outlets, missing box covers, ungrounded receptacles, panel corrections. Tell us your closing date when you call and we will work to it.
Can you upgrade an old electrical panel in Hartford?
Yes, and it is one of the most common jobs we do in Hartford. That covers fuse box replacement, 100 amp to 200 amp service upgrades, breaker box replacement and adding a sub panel. We handle the permit, coordinate the utility disconnect and reconnect, and label every circuit before we leave.
How much does an electrician charge in Hartford?
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.
How do I book an electrician in Hartford?
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.
Can you rewire a house without tearing it apart?
Mostly, yes. In older Hartford 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.
Do you pull permits for electrical work in Hartford?
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.
