Electrical Contractors Directory
Find licensed electricians and electrical contractors near you. Compare residential electricians, commercial contractors, 24/7 emergency electricians, solar pros, generator installers, and panel-upgrade specialists — all verified, insured, and ready to quote.
WireCircuitPro lists thousands of verified electrical contractors and licensed electricians across all 50 states. Every pro is screened for active state licensing, liability insurance, and customer reputation before they appear in our directory.
Residential electricians handle whole-home rewiring, outlet and switch repairs, recessed and smart lighting, ceiling fans, GFCI and AFCI protection, and home additions for single-family homes, townhomes, and condos.
Commercial electrical contractors handle tenant build-outs, retail and restaurant fit-outs, office and medical wiring, lighting retrofits, 480V three-phase distribution, fire-alarm tie-ins, and ongoing code compliance for commercial properties.
24/7 emergency electricians respond fast to outages, sparking panels, burning smells, downed service lines, and storm damage — typically within the hour in most metro areas, with after-hours and weekend availability.
Solar electricians design and install grid-tied and battery-backed PV systems, handle inverter and rapid-shutdown wiring, utility interconnection, and main-panel modifications — bridging solar installation with licensed electrical work.
Generator installation electricians size and install whole-home standby generators, automatic transfer switches, propane and natural-gas hookups, and commercial backup power — including Generac, Kohler, Cummins, and Briggs & Stratton systems.
Panel upgrade contractors replace outdated 60 / 100-amp service with modern 200-amp (or 400-amp) panels, swap out recalled Federal Pacific, Zinsco, and Pushmatic equipment, and add sub-panels to support EV chargers, heat pumps, and solar.
Find licensed electrical contractors by state or region:
Before you sign a contract, verify the electrician's license — it takes about a minute:
- Ask for the contractor's license number and the state it's issued in.
- Search the state's electrical board or department of professional regulation online license lookup (most states publish one for free).
- Confirm the license is active, the name matches the business, and there are no open disciplinary actions.
- Request a current Certificate of Insurance (COI) naming you as certificate holder.
- Verify bonding and workers' comp coverage on commercial and larger projects.
