Electrical services in Sterling, CT
Daniels Electric Solutions covers the whole of Sterling — residential repairs, planned installations, commercial fit-outs and 24-hour emergency work. Whether you are searching for a Sterling electrician because a breaker will not reset, or looking for an electrical contractor in Sterling 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 Sterling town line and the north side of Sterling 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 Sterling 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 Sterling — questions we get asked
What areas around Sterling do you cover?
All of Sterling plus the neighbouring towns — Scotland, Thompson, Putnam and the rest of Windham 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 install EV chargers in Sterling?
Yes. Level 2 home chargers, Tesla Wall Connectors and other EVSE units, including the load calculation to confirm your panel can carry it. Most Sterling installs are a single-day job. If capacity is tight we will tell you before you buy the charger, not after.
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.
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.
Do you offer 24 hour emergency electrician service in Sterling?
Yes. The phones are answered 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including holidays, and there is an on-call crew covering Sterling and the surrounding Windham 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 Sterling?
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 Sterling, 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.
