Electrical work in Newark, NJ

Newark is Essex County's largest city and mostly a renter city. Census ACS 2024 5-year estimates show about 24% of occupied homes are owner-occupied and about 76% are rented. Only about 13% of housing units are detached houses; roughly 18% are in two-unit buildings and about 58% are in buildings with three or more units. The median home was built around 1966. Much of the work in a city like this is in two- to multi-family buildings, small commercial space and industrial buildings rather than single-family houses.

PSE&G is the electric utility serving Newark. For a service upgrade the utility handles the meter and service drop, and we coordinate the disconnect and reconnect with PSE&G.

Electrical work needs a permit through the city's construction office. We pull permits in our name and close them out with the inspector. In multifamily buildings the work often means meter stacks, service upgrades and common-area lighting, and we send a written bid after walking the building. See lighting.

I own a three-family. Can you rework the panels and meters?

We do meter stack work and service upgrades for multifamily buildings. See panel upgrades.

My building got a smoke alarm violation. Can you fix it?

We can correct the electrical side. See smoke alarm violation.
