Power failures, faulty wiring, outdated panels. Whatever electrical challenge you face, our licensed electricians have the training and tools to fix it. We bring decades of experience to every Pembroke home, making sure your electrical systems work safely and efficiently.
Emergency Electrical
Electrical emergencies need immediate professional response.
Total power loss. Burning smells from outlets or panels. Sparking wires. These situations require urgent attention from a licensed electrician. GEM provides emergency electrical service in Pembroke 24 hours a day. Our electricians respond quickly to dangerous conditions, diagnose problems, and restore safe operation to your home.
Electrical Repair
When electrical systems fail, fast repairs restore safety and function.
Breakers that won’t stay set. Outlets that stopped working. Lights flickering constantly. These failures disrupt your routine and create real hazards. Our Pembroke electricians diagnose problems accurately and repair them right. We identify what’s wrong, explain your options, and get your power back to reliable operation.
Electrical Installation
New electrical systems need proper installation by licensed pros.
Adding home offices. Installing hot tubs. Setting up EV charging. These improvements require dedicated circuits installed to code. GEM provides electrical installation in Pembroke for new equipment, fixtures, and systems. We handle permits, run circuits correctly, and make sure everything works safely from day one.
Electrical Maintenance
Regular maintenance prevents problems before they start.
Connections loosen over time. Breakers wear out. Surge protection degrades. Without periodic checks, small issues turn into expensive emergencies. GEM provides electrical maintenance in Pembroke that keeps your system operating safely. We inspect panels, test circuits, check connections, and identify developing problems while they’re still easy to fix.
Standby Generators
Storms knock out power but generators keep your home running.
Winter storms, summer thunderstorms, and wind events cut power across Pembroke. When the grid goes down, a standby generator starts automatically, keeping your lights, fridge, heat, and sump pump running. GEM installs, repairs, and maintains whole-home generators for Pembroke homeowners who need reliable backup power.
- Generator Repair: Generator won’t start? Running but not producing full power? Making unusual noises? Our techs diagnose and fix generator problems so your backup system is ready for the next outage.
- Generator Replacement: Older generators lose efficiency and reliability. If yours struggles to start, runs rough, or can’t handle your electrical load, upgrading to a modern unit gives better performance and lower fuel costs.
- Generator Maintenance: Annual maintenance keeps generators reliable. We check oil, test batteries, inspect connections, run load tests, and verify automatic transfer switches work correctly. A maintained generator starts when you need it.
- Generator Installation: GEM installs generators in Pembroke that connect to your panel and start within seconds of losing power. We help you choose the right size for your home and handle all installation, permitting, and testing.
Lighting Services
The right lighting changes how you use and enjoy every room.
Good fixtures in the right places make your home more functional, comfortable, and attractive. Bad lighting strains eyes, wastes energy, and makes spaces feel smaller. GEM’s electricians design and install lighting systems that fit how you actually live: task lighting in kitchens, ambient lighting in living areas, security lighting outside.
- Outdoor Lighting: GEM installs outdoor lighting in Pembroke to guide visitors safely, deter intruders, and highlight your home’s best features. We use weather-resistant fixtures that perform through Massachusetts seasons.
- Indoor Lighting: GEM installs indoor lighting in Pembroke including recessed lights, pendant fixtures, under-cabinet LEDs, and dimmer switches. We install lighting that matches your style and improves how rooms work. Energy-efficient options cut electricity costs without reducing brightness.

Additional Electrical Services
Electrical Panel Upgrades
Your panel controls every circuit in your home.
Older panels can’t handle modern electrical demands. Too many appliances on too few circuits means tripped breakers, flickering lights, and fire hazards. Panels with outdated tech like Federal Pacific or Zinsco breakers pose serious safety risks. GEM provides electrical panel upgrades in Pembroke to meet current codes and handle today’s electrical loads. We also repair existing panels, replace faulty breakers, and add circuits when your home needs more capacity.
Smart Home Services
Control your home’s systems from your phone or voice.
Smart thermostats, automated lighting, video doorbells, connected locks. These devices make life easier and can reduce energy costs. But they need proper electrical infrastructure to work reliably. GEM installs and integrates smart home equipment, making sure devices communicate properly and your electrical system supports them. We help Pembroke homeowners modernize without connectivity frustration.
EV Chargers
Charge your electric vehicle overnight at home.
Public charging works for occasional use, but daily drivers need reliable home charging. A Level 2 charger adds 25 to 30 miles of range per hour: full charge overnight instead of waiting at public stations. GEM provides EV charger installation in Pembroke for all vehicle makes and models. We assess your panel’s capacity, run dedicated circuits, and mount chargers where they’re most convenient for your parking.
Heat Cabling Systems
Prevent ice dams and frozen pipes with electric heat cables.
Massachusetts winters create ice dams on roofs that damage shingles and cause leaks. Pipes in exterior walls and unheated spaces freeze and burst. Heat cables solve both problems. GEM installs roof and gutter heat cables that melt ice before it builds up, plus pipe heat cables that keep water flowing through cold snaps. Proper installation and controls ensure cables run only when needed, keeping energy costs reasonable.
Carbon Monoxide & Smoke Detectors
These devices save lives, but only when they work properly.
Carbon monoxide is odorless and invisible. Smoke detectors give you minutes to escape a fire. Dead batteries, expired sensors, and poor placement turn life-saving devices into useless plastic. GEM installs hardwired smoke and CO detectors with battery backup throughout Pembroke homes. We place detectors according to code, interconnect them so all alarms sound together, and make sure your family has the warning time they need.
Rewiring & Wiring Installation
Old wiring can’t handle how we use electricity today.
Original wiring in older Pembroke homes was designed for a few lights and a radio. Aluminum wiring from the 1970s creates fire risks at connections. Even homes from the 1990s may have undersized wiring for today’s electronics and appliances. GEM provides rewiring services in Pembroke safely and with minimal disruption. One room or whole-house rewiring, our electricians work carefully around existing finishes and bring your home up to current code.
Outlets
Modern homes need more outlets in more places.
Two-prong outlets can’t accept grounded plugs. Outlets in kitchens and bathrooms need GFCI protection. Home offices need enough receptacles to avoid daisy-chaining power strips. Outdoor outlets need weatherproof covers. GEM installs, replaces, and upgrades outlets throughout Pembroke homes. We add circuits where you need more capacity, install GFCI and AFCI protection where code requires it, and replace worn outlets that no longer hold plugs securely.
Surge Protector Services
One lightning strike can destroy thousands of dollars in electronics.
Computers, TVs, appliances with circuit boards, HVAC systems with electronic controls. A surge lasting milliseconds can fry them all. Power strips offer limited protection for individual devices, but surges can enter through any wire in your home. GEM installs whole-home surge protectors in Pembroke at your electrical panel, stopping surges before they reach your devices. We also install point-of-use protection for sensitive equipment that needs extra defense.

Pembroke Electrical FAQs
What electrical considerations apply to homes with well water systems?
Pembroke homes using well water face unique electrical needs: dedicated circuits for submersible well pumps, pressure tank controls requiring proper wiring, low water cutoff switch installation to prevent pump damage, and backup power planning since wells stop working during outages. Many homeowners install generators specifically to maintain water access during extended power failures. Well pump electrical problems often show up as cycling issues, pressure loss, or complete pump failure needing immediate attention.
How does rural location affect electrical service in Pembroke?
Rural Pembroke properties often experience longer power restoration times during outages due to distance from utility substations and lower service priority compared to densely populated areas. This makes backup generators particularly valuable. Rural locations may also have overhead power lines more vulnerable to tree damage and weather events. Some remote properties have distance limitations affecting utility company responsibility for service line maintenance. A licensed electrician can help rural homeowners plan appropriate backup power and understand their electrical service setup.
What’s involved in adding electrical service to a detached garage or barn?
Adding electrical service to detached structures in Pembroke requires: determining appropriate circuit capacity based on planned usage, running underground conduit from the main panel or installing a subpanel, proper trenching depth meeting code requirements, GFCI protection for all receptacles, adequate lighting circuits, and getting necessary permits. Distance from main panel affects wire gauge requirements and voltage drop calculations. Professional installation ensures code compliance and safe operation.
Should I worry about aluminum wiring in my older Pembroke home?
Aluminum wiring was commonly installed in homes built during the 1960s and 1970s. While not inherently dangerous when properly installed and maintained, aluminum wiring needs special attention because it expands and contracts more than copper, potentially loosening connections over time. Warning signs include warm cover plates, flickering lights, or burning smells near outlets. Pembroke homes with aluminum wiring benefit from professional inspection, proper connection methods using approved devices, and potentially copper pigtailing at critical connections. Insurance companies sometimes require electrical certification for aluminum-wired homes.
How can I plan electrical needs for a home workshop?
Planning workshop electrical needs in Pembroke homes depends on equipment types: woodworking tools often need dedicated circuits for table saws and larger equipment, adequate circuits for hand tools and lighting, dust collection system circuits, proper task lighting, and potential for future equipment additions. Many workshops benefit from subpanels providing flexibility for various tool combinations. Professional planning prevents overloaded circuits and ensures safe operation of high-draw equipment like welders or compressors.
