Madison Electric Inc

Power outages, sparking outlets, or burning smells demand immediate attention. Our emergency electricians in Manhattan are on call 24/7, 365 days a year. We arrive within 60 minutes or less, fully equipped to handle any crisis—from downed service lines to overloaded panels. First, we perform a rapid safety assessment using infrared cameras to spot hot spots. Then we isolate the fault, restore power temporarily if needed, and complete permanent repairs. Common emergencies we resolve include tripp...

An outdated or undersized electrical panel is a fire hazard and a bottleneck for modern appliances. In Manhattan, homes built before 1990 often have 100-amp fuse boxes or breakers that can't handle today's power demands. Our panel upgrade service replaces old panels with 200-amp or higher load centers, supporting everything from air conditioners to home theaters. We handle the entire process: pulling permits, coordinating with the utility company, and scheduling final inspection. First, we asses...

Old wiring—especially knob-and-tube or aluminum—is a leading cause of house fires. In Manhattan, many historic homes still contain these outdated materials. Our wiring upgrade service replaces unsafe wiring with modern copper, grounded circuits. We start with a whole-home electrical safety inspection, using borescopes and thermal imaging to find hidden hazards. For partial rewires, we target high-risk areas like kitchens, bathrooms, and basements. For full home rewiring, we carefully fish new ca...

Sparking outlets, burning smells, or a sudden loss of power need someone on the way now. Our electricians are on call around the clock, every day of the year, and we aim to arrive within an hour. When we get to your property, we start with a quick safety check using infrared cameras to find hot spots, then isolate the fault and restore power if it is safe to do so. From there we complete the permanent repair, whether that means a tripped main breaker, storm damage, or a melted meter. We can also...

Day-to-day electrical work in your home should be done right and explained clearly. We handle outlet and switch repairs, new circuits for kitchens and home offices, fixture swaps, and general maintenance for houses and apartments. Every job follows local code, and we will walk you through what we are doing and why before we start. Many of our homes here are older buildings, so we are used to working around plaster walls and tight spaces with care for your finishes. Whether the job is a single ou...

Offices, shops, and restaurants depend on electrical systems that stay running through busy hours. Our commercial work covers tenant build-outs, service upgrades, additional circuits for equipment, and ongoing maintenance for business properties. We schedule work around your operating hours where we can, and we keep the work area clean and safe for employees and customers. Every installation follows the local code and we handle the detailed documentation that property managers and inspectors exp...

An old fuse box or undersized panel can struggle with air conditioners, appliances, and EV chargers. We replace these with modern 200-amp or larger panels fitted with AFCI and GFCI breakers. Before we start, we measure your current load and talk through what you plan to add in the future. We handle permits and coordinate with the utility and inspector, so the job is finished properly from start to finish. We also install sub-panels for garages or workshops and convert old screw-in fuses to break...

Knob-and-tube and aluminum wiring are common in older buildings and can be a real fire risk. We begin with an inspection using thermal imaging and borescopes to find hidden problems before we make recommendations. For some homes we replace only the high-risk areas like kitchens and basements, and for others we rewire the whole property. We run new cable with low-dust methods to keep your walls as intact as possible. Where aluminum wiring is present, we convert it to copper using approved methods...

A ceiling fan can make a room more comfortable, but it needs proper support and wiring to run safely. We install fans on existing ceiling boxes when they are rated for the load, and we replace the box with a fan-rated one when they are not. We check the switch and wiring so the fan runs correctly with its controls, including dimmers and remote receivers. Balancing and final testing are part of the job so the fan runs quietly. If your ceiling needs new wiring for a fan, we will explain the option...

When lights flicker, breakers trip, or an outlet stops working, finding the cause is the first step. We use a systematic approach, testing circuits and using thermal imaging to locate the source of the problem rather than guessing. We explain what we find in plain terms and give you the options for fixing it. Once the cause is confirmed, we make the repair and test the circuit to make sure it is working safely. Many problems turn out to be simple, and we will tell you when that is the case. Cont...

Good lighting makes a space work better, whether you need task lights in a kitchen, recessed fixtures in a living room, or exterior lights for a storefront. We install ceiling fixtures, recessed and track lighting, under-cabinet lights, and outdoor fixtures, and we can add dimmers and smart controls. We plan the placement so that the light falls where you need it and the wiring is routed cleanly. Each installation is tested before we leave so you can see it working. If you are unsure what layout...
