Questions about electricians in the District of Columbia
Do you cover my part of the District of Columbia?
Type your ZIP code into the checker on this page and it shows straight away whether we cover your address. Cities with a dedicated page are listed first, smaller towns after them. Don't see your ZIP? Call anyway and we'll check your address.
Do I need a permit for electrical work in the District of Columbia?
Often, yes. Panel and service work, new circuits and rewiring normally need a permit and an inspection, while replacing a fixture or a device on an existing circuit often does not. Rules are set locally, so ask on the call and the permit is normally pulled as part of the job.
Can I get an electrician in the District of Columbia at night?
Yes, for emergencies. Our line is answered 24 hours a day. Tell us what's happening and we'll get a licensed electrician out who takes after-hours calls. The DC emergency page covers what to do until help arrives.
