Working in Arlington
Your local electricians for Arlington.
Arlington stretches from the dense two-family streets of East Arlington near Spy Pond to Arlington Center and up the hill to the Heights. The Minuteman Bikeway runs right through it, and so does a lot of early-1900s housing.
Arlington homeowners are among the most eager in the area to switch to heat pumps and electric appliances, and that shapes much of what we do here.

Homes & buildings in Arlington
Early-1900s homes, all-electric goals.
Many Arlington homes were built between the 1900s and the 1930s: two-families, bungalows and colonials with plaster walls and, often, some original wiring still in service. We regularly find knob and tube in attics and cloth-covered cable in walls.
At the same time, owners want heat pumps, induction ranges and EV chargers. Planning the panel and service first, and replacing old wiring where walls are already open, keeps the project efficient.
Arlington’s hills matter more than you’d think. Homes up in the Heights sit higher and more exposed to wind, and older trees along many streets bring down lines in storms. Basements in lower parts of town near the Mystic Lakes and Alewife Brook can be damp, which makes GFCI protection and a dry, rust-free panel especially important.

Before you start
Planning a project in Arlington.
If you’re converting to heat pumps, schedule the electrical assessment before signing the HVAC contract. Knowing whether your panel and service can carry the new equipment helps you compare quotes and avoid delays on installation day.
In two-family homes, coordinate with the other unit’s owner or tenants on shared basement work and service upgrades. We can plan a building-wide approach so both units are ready for the loads they’re likely to add.
Arlington FAQ
Electrical questions from Arlington
Can an Arlington two-family go all-electric?
Often yes, with planning. Each unit’s panel and the building’s service need to be sized for the new loads. We calculate it unit by unit.
Do you replace knob and tube in occupied homes?
Yes. We work room by room so the rest of the house keeps power.
Can you coordinate with my heat pump installer?
Yes. We schedule electrical work around your HVAC contractor.
Should I talk to an electrician before hiring a heat pump installer?
It helps. A load calculation tells you whether you’ll need panel or service work, which affects the total cost and schedule.
