Residential Electrical Services in Wilmington, North Carolina

Inspections– It is always a good idea to have your Wilmington, North Carolina home’s electrical system checked out every so often to be sure there aren’t damaged wires that could pose a fire risk. In addition, we can inspect a home you are under contract to purchase, so you don’t have any unexpected problems after the closing papers are signed.

Installations– There are many types of installation we offer as part of our residential electrical services, from basic installation of new lighting fixtures or fans to putting in the wiring for a new swimming pool or whole house generator. We can also put in additional circuits which is a good idea if you are tripping the breaker often or setting up a home office.

Repairs– Even with a regular inspection, it is wise to be alert to potential electrical issues and call for repair services if you notice something out of the ordinary. The diagnostic skills of our electricians enable us to efficiently and effectively find the issue and make the proper repair.

Wiring Replacement– If you have an older home that hasn’t yet been converted to a circuit breaker box system, we highly advise doing so. They are safer and will keep you from having to purchase fuses. We can also rewire the house if the wiring is beyond its useful and safe lifespan.

FAQs

Electricity plays an essential role in your home or business, but that doesn’t mean you know tons about your electrical system. Fortunately, we are experts that you can rely on for answers, and we have compiled a list of a few frequently asked questions in hopes that their answers will be informative and useful to you. Check them out and contact us with any additional questions you have for our team.

Is it okay to DIY electrical work?

We understand that many homeowners or business owners may want to tackle small electrical repairs or installations on their own, but we advise against it. You never know what you don’t know until an accident happens or you make an issue worse, so the safe way to go is to hire a certified electrician from the start.

Can I reset my own circuit breaker?

Absolutely. All you need to do is locate your breaker box and look for any switches that are out of place. Simply flip those switches back where they belong.

Is a generator a smart idea for my home?

A generator can be a fantastic addition to your home if you want to have a backup power source during an outage or don’t want to rely on a fickle power grid. We offer whole-house generators and backup generator hookups.

What are signs I need electrical repairs?

Flickering lights, warm and discolored outlets, burning smells, buzzing sounds, and frequent circuit breaker trips are all common signs that it’s time to call an electrician for repairs.

Maguire Installed the electrical connection for our hot tub and did an excellent job. The work was done neatly, professionally and on budget. Would definitely recommend.

I needed a new line run for a cook top I was installing. I have been licensed in other states but not NC so I needed to have a licensed electrician for NC to install. The two guys that came out ran the circuit as fast (if not faster) than I could have done it. Very clean install and quality work. I'd hire them again in an instant. I'll be using them for any future electrical I need on other jobs.

After two visits for various electric concerns and repairs, which were all fixed I wrote the following in a letter that accompanied my payment."Dear Mr. Maguire, I just wanted to take a minute to thank you for all the work you did. Your professionalism is exemplary. It is also quite rare. I also appreciate your willingness to help be learn a bit from you. And finally, although some might think what you charge is high, it is in fact totally appropriate given the quality of your work and the expediency with which you achieve it.Thanks so much."Maguire's service literally shocked me.

I contacted Maguire with a big problem that I had with a pool renovation. The pool company had not properly bonded the pool and Anthony really helped us out. He not only explained the work that needed to be done, but he working closely with our paver contractor to remedy the situation quickly, professionally and with minimal impact. Since then, Maguire Electric has helped with other pool related projects to include underwater lighting, landscape lighting and adding exterior outlets. They are not only great people to work with, but I've also been very happy with their service. Would highly recommend!
