Electrical services in North Canaan, CT
Daniels Electric Solutions covers the whole of North Canaan — residential repairs, planned installations, commercial fit-outs and 24-hour emergency work. Whether you are searching for a North Canaan electrician because a breaker will not reset, or looking for an electrical contractor in North Canaan 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 North Canaan Center and downtown North Canaan 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 North Canaan customers say
They fixed a mess left by a handyman — junction boxes buried in the wall with no cover. Found four of them. Terrifying but sorted.
Retail unit needed emergency lighting and exit signs sorted for an inspection deadline. Two days notice and they made it happen.
Half the kitchen went dead on a Sunday night. Someone actually answered the phone, and a crew was in my North Canaan kitchen by nine the next morning. Bad splice in a junction box. Fixed, tested, and the price was the price.
Electrician in North Canaan — questions we get asked
Can you rewire a house without tearing it apart?
Mostly, yes. In older North Canaan 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 North Canaan?
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.
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 work on both homes and businesses in North Canaan?
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 North Canaan, including evening and overnight work so you do not have to close during trading hours.
Do you offer 24 hour emergency electrician service in North Canaan?
Yes. The phones are answered 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including holidays, and there is an on-call crew covering North Canaan and the surrounding Litchfield 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 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 should I do right now if I smell burning near an outlet?
Stop using anything on that circuit, switch off the breaker feeding it if you can identify it safely, do not pull the outlet apart, and call (833) 652-8933. Tell the dispatcher it is a burning smell and it goes straight to the emergency queue. If you see smoke or flame, call 911 first.
