Find electrical work in Columbus

Rules and utilities worth knowing

Ohio licenses commercial electrical contractors at the state level, and many cities require that license for home work too. If a service upgrade needs a new meter or a disconnect at the street, the electrician will usually coordinate with AEP Ohio on scheduling.

What Columbus housing means for electrical work

The Dublin Road plant treats water from the Scioto River and the Griggs and O'Shaughnessy reservoirs. Blueprint Columbus uses green infrastructure to reduce sewer overflows.

Spring storms can bring heavy rain and basement flooding. Older basements and garages tend to be short on outlets, so extension cords end up doing permanent work for freezers and tools. That is worth fixing properly.

Winter puts space heaters, heat tape and block heaters on circuits that were never sized for them. A tripping breaker in January is often a warning, not a fluke. The Hap Cremean plant treats water from Hoover Reservoir on Big Walnut Creek.
