Elmwood Park is a Bergen County borough served by PSE&G for electric. It is a town of older two-family houses and single-family homes. The median home was built in 1958, about 45% of homes are single-family detached, and roughly 28% of housing units are in two-unit buildings (ACS 2020-2024). About 43% of occupied homes are rented, so many jobs are for landlords as well as owners.
The borough's Building Department lists an electric inspector among its staff, and contractors register with the department yearly with a certificate of insurance. We pull permits in our name and handle the inspection.
A 1950s two-family often has two apartments fed from separate meters and small panels, with aging circuits behind them. That is where we see the need for panel and service upgrades, added kitchen circuits and a clean split between a unit's wiring and the shared basement or hallway. Older homes also raise lighting and smoke alarm questions when a unit is turned over to a new tenant. See our smoke alarm violation page.
Often, depending on the service and the meter layout. We check the existing setup and bid it in writing.
Start with a walk-through of outlets, GFCI protection, smoke alarms and the panel. The borough requires a certificate of re-occupancy for each new tenant, so call the Building Department about the steps.
It depends on panel space and service size. We check that first. See EV chargers.
