Serving Dundalk and southeast Baltimore County. Older cape cods, row homes, and bungalows from the 1940s and 1950s — a housing stock that looks a lot like Baltimore City and needs the same approach. Licensed master electrician, flat-rate pricing.
Dundalk is one of the older communities in southeast Baltimore County, built largely in the 1940s and 1950s to house steelworkers and their families. Cape cods, bungalows, and row homes that have been passed down through multiple owners over 70-plus years — and in most cases, the electrical has been modified and added to by every one of those owners along the way.
The job profile in Dundalk looks a lot like Baltimore City work: 100-amp panels that were never upgraded, wiring that's been tapped into without permits, missing GFCI protection in kitchens and bathrooms, and service entrances that are showing their age. We work in Dundalk regularly and come prepared for tight spaces, older wiring, and panels that have had creative modifications over the decades. Wafer recessed lights are popular here for the same reason as Baltimore City rowhouses — they install without attic access, which is limited in most of these homes.
We price flat-rate, so you know the number before we start. Common Dundalk jobs run about $2,500–$4,500 for a 100-to-200-amp panel upgrade, $220–$275 for a ceiling fan swap, and $700–$1,500 for a Level 2 EV charger. You get the price upfront — no hourly meter running.
Yes. Dundalk falls under Baltimore County, which requires a permit and inspection for panel upgrades, new circuits, and service changes. As a licensed master electrician we pull the permit and handle the inspection — it's part of the job, not something you chase down.
Dundalk's post-war homes from the 1940s–50s frequently still have fuse boxes or 100-amp panels and original wiring. The most common jobs are upgrading to a 200-amp breaker panel, adding GFCI protection, and replacing aging outlets. If you've got a fuse box or a Federal Pacific panel, that's worth addressing for safety and insurance.
