Most of what an electrician does is invisible within a week of finishing it. These are the parts worth looking at before the covers go on — and a few of the visible ones.

Residential and commercial
Woodside and western Queens
No before-and-after theatrics

A finished residential service installation in Woodside, New York — A finished service wall. The whole job is that it looks like nothing happened.

Copper conductors dressed into a load centre in Woodside, New York — Conductors dressed square. Nobody will ever see this again once the cover goes on.

Parallel conduit runs with matched bends on a ceiling in Queens, New York — Four runs, four matched offsets. Bent on site rather than bought as fittings.

A conduit run turning a ceiling corner in Queens, New York — A corner. There is a fast way to do this and it does not look like this.

Three faceplates set at matched heights on a wall in Woodside, New York — Three plates, one line. Setting out is most of finish work.

A Woodside kitchen lit by new electrical work, Queens, New York — A kitchen relit: under-cabinet task light, and fewer downlights than were asked for.

A living room lit by new electrical work in Queens, New York — Three layers of light in one room, on three switches.

A wall sconce fitted in a Queens hallway, New York — A sconce washing a hallway wall. Bounced light beats a downlight overhead.

Exterior lighting on a Woodside stoop and path at dusk, Queens, New York — A stoop and path at dusk. Aimed down, shielded, and off the neighbour's window.

A grounding electrode and bonding conductor at a house in Woodside, New York — A grounding electrode. Does nothing at all until the day it does everything.

A bonding clamp on a copper water pipe in Woodside, New York — A bond at the water pipe. We check whether the pipe still reaches metal in the ground.

A row of meter enclosures in a small apartment building in Queens, New York — A meter room mapped and labelled. The least glamorous useful thing in this trade.

Commercial switchgear in a Queens, New York building — Commercial distribution. Same principles, larger conductors, less forgiving schedule.

Structured data cabling terminated in an enclosure in Queens, New York — Data terminated on a strip rather than knotted in a cupboard.

An electric vehicle charger installed in a garage in Woodside, New York — A charger on a circuit sized by calculation, not by guess.

Stripped copper conductors on a bench at Woodside Electric Services, New York — Copper. The reason the brand is this colour.

These photographs are illustrative of the work described on this site. Woodside Electric Services, LLC is a fictional business built to demonstrate what can be designed, deployed and hosted through MaiaHost, so they are not photographs of real customers' homes — and we would rather say so than let a portfolio imply otherwise.

Somebody who does the work will come and look

Book a visit

Telephone the shop and you will get an electrician rather than a call centre. For defined work — a panel, a charger, a lighting scheme — the quote is free. For a fault, the visit is the diagnosis and it is $165 for the first hour, credited against the work if you go ahead the same visit. Either way we will tell you on the telephone which one it is.
