Maplewood is a township in Essex County with a real mix of housing. Census ACS 2024 5-year estimates put the median year built at 1938, with about 75% of occupied homes owner-occupied and about 25% rented. Roughly 61% of housing units are detached houses, about 15% are in two-unit buildings and about 15% are in buildings with 10 or more units. Many of the houses date to the 1930s or earlier, so the original wiring was sized for a very different load than a modern kitchen, central air or a car charger.
That mix shapes the work. Two-family owners often ask about separate panels or meters per unit. Owners of older single-family houses ask about grounding, outlets and added circuits. Small apartment buildings need common-area lighting and code-compliance fixes.
Electrical work needs a permit through the local construction office. We pull the permit in our name and close it out with the inspector. If your utility has to disconnect and reconnect service, we coordinate that too.
Often that is a service and meter question, and it is permitted work. We walk the building and give you a written estimate. See panel upgrades.
Yes. A Level 2 charger needs its own circuit, and an older panel may need an upgrade first. See EV chargers.
