Serving Swarthmore, PA
Swarthmore homeowners rely on Charge Home Solutions for Level 2 EV charger installation, Tesla Powerwall battery backup, electrical panel upgrades, and full residential electrical service. Swarthmore's roughly 6,200 residents make it a notable Delaware County market for EV charger installation, whole-home battery backup, and electrical modernization.
In Pennsylvania, winter storms and summer thunderstorms make standby power popular. Cold winters raise heating and EV-charging loads, so panel upgrades are common, so we size every system to the way you actually use power.
Whole-home backup, from a Powerwall to a standby generator, keeps your Swarthmore home running when the grid goes down, automatically, with no manual switching. From a single dedicated circuit to a full electrical panel replacement, we right-size every Swarthmore job with a proper load calculation, no guesswork, no upselling.
Serving neighborhoods in and around Swarthmore, our Swarthmore electricians are licensed, insured, and Tesla-certified. We know PECO, PPL, and Duquesne Light requirements. Every job includes a free in-home estimate, fixed pricing, pulled permits, and our workmanship guarantee.
In Swarthmore, service typically runs through PECO / PPL / Duquesne Light. We size the panel and circuit to their standards, pull the Delaware County permit, and check whether utility rebates where offered can lower your out-of-pocket cost.
Panel work is where every electrification project starts or stalls. Our Swarthmore electricians run a real load calculation before recommending anything: many homes have more spare capacity than owners expect, and smart load management often avoids a $1,500–$4,000 upgrade entirely. When the upgrade is genuinely needed, it's one day of work and decades of headroom.
Older housing stock brings specific electrical needs: fuse boxes and 60–100A services that predate modern loads, aluminum branch wiring from the late 1960s, and panels from brands like Federal Pacific and Zinsco with documented failure histories. We identify these during any Swarthmore assessment and give you straight answers, repair, remediate, or replace, with real prices for each.
Standby generators remain the answer for extended outages: an automatic transfer switch starts the generator seconds after the grid fails and your Swarthmore home keeps running indefinitely on fuel. Sizing matters, essentials-only backup needs far less than whole-home with A/C, and our free assessment includes the load audit that gets it right.
Here's what working with us in Swarthmore looks like. First, a licensed electrician visits your home for a free assessment, checking the panel, measuring runs, and running the load calculation. You get a fixed, written quote on the spot or the same day. Work is scheduled at your convenience, the Delaware County permit is pulled before we start, and inspection is coordinated after. Most single-service jobs finish in one visit.
