Electricians in Essex, MD

Lessons From Past Storms

In 2003, Tropical Storm Isabel pushed floodwater into many waterfront homes in eastern Baltimore County. Some homes lost panels, wiring, and appliances.

Today, many owners plan ahead. Raising a panel above flood level, adding surge protection, and installing a generator can lower the risk.

• Storm damage repairs
• Panel moves and upgrades
• Surge protection
• Generator installs

Older Homes in Essex

Many Essex homes were built in the middle of the last century. Callers often need new outlets, GFCI protection, and panel upgrades.

If your home has not had an electrical check in years, an inspection is a good place to start.

Permits in Essex

Essex is in Baltimore County. Electrical permits go through the Baltimore County Department of Permits, Approvals and Inspections.

Storm Prep for Essex Homes

Keep a list of the circuits you would need during an outage, like the fridge, sump pump, and heat. The list helps the electrician plan the right size of generator for your home.

If your panel is in a basement that has flooded before, ask about moving it higher.

After any flooding, do not turn power back on to wet areas until an electrician has checked them.
