Sharon Electrical Services
Emergency repairs, complete rewiring, and everything in between – GEM handles all your electrical needs.
Power outages, faulty circuits, outdated panels. Whatever electrical challenge you face, our licensed electricians have the training and equipment to solve it. Decades of experience go into every Sharon project, ensuring your electrical systems work safely and efficiently.
Emergency Electrical
Some electrical situations need immediate professional response.
Total power loss. Burning smell from outlets or the panel. Sparking wires. These situations require urgent attention from a licensed electrician. GEM provides emergency electrical service in Sharon 24/7. Our electricians respond quickly to dangerous conditions, diagnose the problem, and restore safe operation to your home.
Electrical Repair
When things stop working, fast repairs get you back to normal.
Breakers that won’t reset. Dead outlets. Flickering lights throughout the house. These failures disrupt your routine and create safety hazards. Our Sharon electricians diagnose problems accurately and fix them right the first time. We identify what’s actually wrong, explain your options clearly, and restore reliable power to your home.
Electrical Installation
New equipment needs proper installation by licensed professionals.
Setting up home offices. Installing hot tubs or pools. Adding EV charging. These improvements require dedicated circuits installed to code. GEM handles electrical installation in Sharon for equipment, fixtures, and systems. We manage permits, run circuits properly, and verify safe operation from the start.
Electrical Maintenance
Regular maintenance catches problems while they’re easy to fix.
Connections loosen gradually. Breakers wear down. Surge protection loses effectiveness. Without regular checks, minor issues grow into expensive emergencies. GEM provides electrical maintenance in Sharon that keeps systems running safely. We inspect panels, test circuits, check connections, and identify developing problems early.
Standby Generators
Power outages from storms shouldn’t leave your Sharon home in the dark.
Winter storms and severe weather knock out power across Sharon neighborhoods. When the grid fails, a standby generator starts automatically, keeping your lights, refrigerator, heat, and essential systems running. GEM installs, repairs, and maintains whole-home generators for Sharon residents who need reliable backup power.
- Generator Repair: Generator won’t start? Running but not producing full power? Making strange noises? Our technicians 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 provides better performance and lower fuel costs.
- Generator Maintenance: Annual maintenance keeps generators dependable. We check fluids, test batteries, inspect connections, run load tests, and verify automatic transfer switches work correctly. A maintained generator starts when you need it.
- Generator Installation: We install generators in Sharon that connect directly to your electrical panel and start within seconds of losing power. We’ll help you choose the right capacity for your home’s needs and handle all installation, permitting, and testing.
Lighting Services
The right lighting transforms how you use and enjoy your home.
Good fixtures positioned correctly make your home more functional, comfortable, and attractive. Poor lighting strains eyes, wastes electricity, and makes rooms feel smaller. Our electricians design and install lighting that fits how you actually live – task lighting in kitchens, ambient lighting in living areas, security lighting outside.
- Outdoor Lighting: We install outdoor lighting in Sharon to guide visitors safely, discourage break-ins, and highlight your home’s features. Weather-resistant fixtures that handle Massachusetts seasonal extremes.
- Indoor Lighting: We install indoor lighting in Sharon including recessed lights, pendant fixtures, under-cabinet LEDs, and dimmer switches. Lighting that matches your style and makes rooms work better. Energy-efficient options cut electric bills without sacrificing brightness.

Additional Electrical Services
Electrical Panel Upgrades
Your electrical panel controls every circuit in your home.
Older panels can’t support modern electrical demands. Too many appliances on too few circuits means tripped breakers, flickering lights, and fire risks. Panels with outdated technology like Federal Pacific or Zinsco breakers create serious hazards. GEM upgrades electrical panels in Sharon to meet current codes and handle today’s loads. We also repair existing panels, replace worn breakers, and add circuits when your home needs more capacity.
Smart Home Services
Control your home from your phone or voice commands.
Smart thermostats, automated lighting, video doorbells, connected locks. These devices add convenience and can reduce energy costs. But they need proper electrical infrastructure to work reliably. GEM installs and integrates smart home equipment, ensuring devices communicate properly and your electrical system supports them. We help Sharon homeowners modernize without connectivity frustrations.
EV Chargers
Charge your electric vehicle overnight at home.
Public charging works occasionally, but daily drivers need reliable home charging. A Level 2 charger adds 25-30 miles of range per hour – full charge overnight instead of waiting at public stations. GEM installs EV chargers in Sharon for all vehicle makes and models. We assess panel capacity, run dedicated circuits, and mount chargers conveniently for your parking setup.
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 interior leaks. Pipes in exterior walls and unheated areas freeze and burst. Heat cables solve both problems. GEM installs roof and gutter heat cables that melt ice before it accumulates, plus pipe heat cables that keep water flowing through cold snaps. Proper installation and controls ensure operation only when needed, maintaining reasonable energy costs.
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 fires. 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 Sharon homes. We position detectors by code, interconnect them so all alarms sound at once, and ensure your family gets proper warning time.
Rewiring & Wiring Installation
Old wiring wasn’t designed for how we use electricity today.
Original wiring in older Sharon homes was designed for basic needs. Aluminum wiring from the 1970s creates fire risks at connections. Even 1990s homes may have undersized wiring for today’s electronics and appliances. GEM rewires Sharon homes safely with minimal disruption. One room or the whole house, our electricians work carefully around existing finishes and bring everything up to current electrical codes.
Outlets
Modern homes need way more outlets than older homes have.
Two-prong outlets won’t accept grounded plugs. Kitchen and bathroom outlets need GFCI protection. Home offices need enough outlets to avoid daisy-chaining power strips. Outdoor outlets need weatherproof covers. GEM installs, replaces, and upgrades outlets throughout Sharon homes. We add circuits where you need more capacity, install GFCI and AFCI protection where code requires it, and replace worn outlets that don’t 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 damage all of it. Power strips help individual devices, but surges can enter through any wire in your home. GEM installs whole-home surge protectors in Sharon at your electrical panel, stopping surges before they reach your devices. We also install point-of-use protection for sensitive equipment needing extra defense.

Sharon Electrical FAQs
How often should I have my electrical system inspected?
Sharon homeowners should have electrical inspections every few years, especially in homes over 25 years old. More frequent inspections make sense if you’re experiencing issues like frequent breaker trips, flickering lights, or planning major renovations. Homes with aluminum wiring, Federal Pacific or Zinsco panels, or knob-and-tube wiring should be inspected immediately. Professional inspections identify safety concerns, code violations, and capacity issues before they become expensive emergencies or create hazards.
What causes lights to flicker in some rooms but not others?
Flickering lights in specific rooms typically indicate loose connections in those circuits, overloaded circuits serving too many devices, or problems with individual fixtures. In Sharon’s older homes, deteriorating connections at outlets or junction boxes commonly cause localized flickering. Less commonly, flickering throughout the house when major appliances start can indicate undersized service or main panel issues. A licensed electrician can diagnose whether you’re dealing with simple fixture problems or more serious wiring issues requiring attention.
Can I add more circuits without upgrading my electrical panel?
Adding circuits depends on your panel having both available physical space for breakers and sufficient electrical capacity for the additional load. Many Sharon homes built before 1980 have panels that are either physically full or lack adequate amperage for modern needs. Even panels with open slots may lack capacity for high-draw additions like central AC, EV chargers, or hot tubs. A licensed electrician performs load calculations to determine if your panel can safely accommodate additional circuits or if service upgrades make sense.
Why do certain outlets in my home not work?
Dead outlets typically result from tripped GFCI devices (check bathrooms and kitchens for reset buttons), tripped breakers, loose connections at the outlet or upstream junction boxes, or failed outlets themselves. In Sharon homes, outlets may be wired in series where one failed connection affects multiple downstream outlets. Less commonly, damaged wiring from remodeling projects or pest activity causes outlet failures. Professional diagnosis identifies whether you’re dealing with simple resets, failed outlets, or more serious wiring problems.
What electrical upgrades add the most value when selling?
Sharon home sellers benefit most from addressing visible electrical deficiencies: upgrading outdated panels to adequate amperage service with modern breakers, replacing two-prong outlets with properly grounded three-prong receptacles throughout, installing GFCI protection in kitchens and bathrooms, adding adequate lighting, and removing visible knob-and-tube or aluminum wiring. These upgrades improve safety, meet buyer expectations, satisfy inspector concerns, and demonstrate proper home maintenance. In Sharon’s competitive market, modern electrical systems help homes show better and close faster.
