Craftsmen Electrical Services has been handling electrical work for Reynoldsburg homeowners and businesses since 2018. Eight years in, we have built a reputation in this community the old-fashioned way: show up on time, do the work right, and treat every customer like a neighbor. Hire us and you're hiring a neighbor who knows the area. We know the neighborhoods, the housing stock, and the kinds of electrical problems that come up around Franklin County. From a single dead outlet to a full panel upgrade, we handle it all with the same care and attention every time.
Our team serves Reynoldsburg and the surrounding communities throughout Franklin County. Whether you own a home, manage rental properties, or run a business, you get the same reliable service and the same commitment to doing the job correctly. We are proud of the work we have put into this area over the last eight years, and we are not going anywhere.
Every home's wiring tells a different story, and the problems that show up are just as varied. Flickering lights, dead outlets, a breaker that keeps tripping, a burning smell near a switch plate, sparking outlets, or a room that suddenly has no power. These are the calls we get every day, and they are the calls we take seriously.
When we come out for a diagnostic visit, you can expect a licensed electrician to walk through the problem with you, identify the cause, and explain what needs to happen to fix it. We check for arc-fault and ground-fault conditions, test GFCI and AFCI protection where applicable, and make sure the fix addresses the root issue rather than just the symptom. Clear communication from the first call to the final test is how we work. We're one phone call from getting your power right.
Staying ahead of electrical problems keeps your home safe, and the breaker panel is where most capacity and safety issues start. Older panels, fuse boxes, and undersized service entrances create real problems: tripping breakers, limited capacity for modern appliances, and in some cases, genuine fire risk. We handle breaker panel repair, fuse box to breaker panel conversions, 200-amp service upgrades, subpanel installation, and full main panel replacements.
Before any panel work, we run a load calculation to make sure the new service matches what your home or building actually needs. We also coordinate on service-entrance and meter upgrades when the utility requires it. You will know exactly what the job involves and what it costs before we start. Transparent pricing with no hidden fees on any wiring job is a commitment we keep on every panel call.
Experienced electricians. Code-compliant work. Professional service.
Getting your electrical problem handled starts with a quick call. Whether you need a single outlet replaced or a new dedicated circuit run for a major appliance, the process is straightforward. We install and replace standard outlets, GFCI outlets in kitchens and bathrooms, dimmer switches, and smart switches. We also run dedicated circuits for dryers, ranges, refrigerators, microwaves, and washing machines.
Dedicated circuits matter because they protect both the appliance and the rest of your home's wiring. A dryer or range pulling power from a shared circuit is a recipe for nuisance tripping and, over time, wiring wear. We handle 240-volt outlet installation for heavy appliances and make sure every circuit is properly sized and code-compliant. We keep your home powered and safe.
You shouldn't have to chase an electrician for answers, especially when the question is whether your home's wiring is safe. Older homes throughout Franklin County still have knob-and-tube wiring, aluminum branch circuits, or wiring that has never been updated to meet current code. These are not scare tactics. They are real conditions that affect insurance coverage, home sales, and day-to-day safety.
We handle whole-home rewiring, knob-and-tube replacement, aluminum wiring remediation, grounding and bonding corrections, and electrical code violation repairs. We also offer electrical safety inspections for buyers, sellers, and homeowners who simply want to know where they stand. Our licensed electricians walk through the system, document what they find, and explain the options clearly. No pressure and no gimmicks, just safe, solid wiring. Give us a ring and consider it handled.
The interior electrical work that makes a home more comfortable and efficient covers a lot of ground. We install recessed lighting, upgrade fixtures to LED, hang and wire ceiling fans, replace bathroom exhaust fans, install under-cabinet lighting, and swap out dated fixtures for something that fits the space. We also install smart switches and smart outlets for homeowners who want more control over their lighting and power.
These are the jobs that change how a home feels day to day. A ceiling fan in the right room, a row of recessed lights in a finished basement, or a bathroom exhaust fan that actually moves air. We handle the wiring and the installation, and we leave the space clean when we are done. We're one phone call from getting your power right.
Ohio's weather is unpredictable, storm season is real, and EV ownership in the Reynoldsburg area keeps growing. The electrical work that supports life outside the walls of your home matters just as much as what is inside.
We install exterior light fixtures, motion sensor lights, landscape lighting, and weatherproof outdoor outlets. Good outdoor lighting improves security and curb appeal, and it is one of the more straightforward upgrades we handle. Whether you want a single motion light over the garage or a full landscape lighting circuit, we can get it done.
A Level 2 EV charger at home is the practical choice for anyone who drives electric. We run the dedicated circuit, install the charger, and check your panel capacity to make sure it can carry the load. If an upgrade is needed, we handle that too. Demand for this work in the Franklin County area has grown steadily, and our team has the experience to do it cleanly and correctly.
When a storm knocks out power in central Ohio, a properly wired standby generator is the difference between a minor inconvenience and a real problem. We install transfer switches, connect generators to your home's electrical system, and make sure the panel connection is safe and code-compliant. We do not sell generators, but we wire them correctly once you have one. No pressure and no gimmicks, just safe, solid wiring.
We work with property managers, landlords, business owners, and contractors throughout the area. Commercial electrical repair, panel upgrades for office and retail spaces, commercial lighting installation, and electrical work for remodels and renovations are all part of what we do. If you manage rental properties in Reynoldsburg or the surrounding communities, we understand the pace that work demands and the importance of getting units back in service quickly.
We also handle electrical repairs flagged during home inspections, which is a common need for buyers and sellers moving through a transaction. Whatever the property type, the work gets done by licensed electricians who know what they are doing and communicate clearly throughout.
Breakers that hold. Outlets that work. Lights that stay on.
Every job we complete is held to the same standard: the work has to be right. That means wiring run correctly, circuits sized properly, and every connection made to code. Licensed electricians perform all of our work, and we do not cut corners to save time or money on a job.
If something is not right, we make it right. That is not a marketing line. It is how we have operated since 2018, and it is why customers in Reynoldsburg call us back and refer us to their neighbors. We are not satisfied until the work meets code and meets your expectations.
Getting an estimate should not be a mystery. When you call, we talk through what you need, give you a clear picture of what the work involves, and explain the cost before anything starts. There are no hidden fees and no surprises at the end of the job. If something unexpected comes up during the work, we tell you about it before we proceed.
We offer same-day scheduling when availability allows, and we are available for electrical emergencies around the clock. If you have a situation that cannot wait, call us. A real local person picks up, and we get someone out to you as quickly as we can. Affordable, honest electrical service in Reynoldsburg does not have to mean waiting days for a callback.

How do I know if my home needs a panel upgrade?
A few signs come up regularly. If your breakers trip often, if you cannot run the microwave and another appliance at the same time without losing power, if you are planning to add an EV charger or a major appliance, or if your panel is still rated at 100 amps, it is worth a conversation. We run a load calculation before recommending any upgrade so the new panel is sized for what you actually need.
What causes breakers to trip repeatedly?
The most common causes are an overloaded circuit, a short somewhere in the wiring, or a breaker that has simply worn out. A circuit shared by too many high-draw appliances is the everyday version. A wiring fault is the one worth catching quickly. We diagnose the root cause before replacing anything so the fix holds.
Is the electrical work permitted and inspected?
Yes. Work that requires a permit gets one, and we schedule the inspection so the job is documented and code-compliant when it is done. This matters for insurance, for resale, and for your own peace of mind. We do not skip that step.
Same-Day and Emergency Availability
We are available every day from 5:30 AM to 10:00 PM, including weekends. Urgent problems do not wait for business hours, and neither do we.
How do I know if the wiring in my older home is safe?
Homes built before the 1980s in the Franklin County area sometimes still carry knob-and-tube wiring or aluminum branch circuits that were never updated. These systems are not automatically dangerous, but they do need to be evaluated. An electrical safety inspection gives you a clear picture of what is there and what, if anything, needs attention.
What does EV charger installation involve?
A Level 2 home charger runs on a dedicated 240-volt circuit, similar to what a dryer or range uses. Before we run any wire, we check that your panel has the capacity to support the load. If it does not, we talk through your options. Installation time depends on the distance from the panel to the charger location and whether any panel work is needed first.
Do I need to be home when the electrician arrives?
For most jobs, yes. We need access to the panel, the affected areas, and someone who can answer questions about what the home has been experiencing. If you manage a rental property and cannot be on site, we can coordinate with a tenant or a property contact as long as someone with access is available.
Transparent Upfront Pricing
We give you a clear number before any work begins, and it does not change once the job is underway. No surprises on the invoice, no fees added after the fact.
How does pricing and estimating work?
We give you a clear number before any work begins, and that number does not shift once the job is underway. Transparent pricing with no hidden fees on any wiring job is how we operate. If the scope changes because we find something unexpected, we stop and talk it through before going further.
When should I call an electrician instead of trying to fix it myself?
Anything inside the panel, anything involving new wiring runs, anything that requires a permit, and anything where you are not completely certain what you are dealing with is worth a call. Electrical work done incorrectly creates fire and shock hazards that are not always visible right away. The diagnostic visit is straightforward, and knowing what you are dealing with is worth it.
Work Performed by Licensed Electricians
Every job, from a single outlet repair to a full panel replacement, is handled by licensed electricians who know the code requirements that apply in this area.
Are you available for same-day or emergency electrical calls?
Yes. We are available every day from 5:30 AM to 10:00 PM, including weekends. If you have an urgent electrical problem, call us and we will work to get someone to you as quickly as the schedule allows. The sooner you call, the better your chances of same-day service.
What does flickering or dimming lights usually mean?
Occasional flickering tied to a large appliance starting up is usually a load issue on a shared circuit. Persistent flickering, especially in multiple rooms, can point to a loose connection, a failing breaker, or a service issue at the panel. It is worth having someone look at it rather than waiting to see if it gets worse.
How long does a panel upgrade typically take?
Most panel upgrades are completed in a single day. The timeline depends on the size of the panel, whether a service-entrance upgrade is needed, and how much breaker work is involved. We give you a realistic timeframe before we start so you can plan around it.
If you have questions about a specific service or want to know what a job will cost, call us at (380) 289-2878 and we will give you a straight answer before any work is scheduled.
