Basement Finishing Wiring

When you transform your basement in New Jersey into a home office, gym, or additional living space, you add to your home’s value. To have full use of the space, you may have to upgrade your electrical system to add a basement outlet box with higher amperes. Our technicians can also provide finishing electrical wiring services, so you have the juice to power electronics, lighting, and new appliances such as a washer and dryer.

Electrical Code for Basements

Before you attempt to install an outlet on the basement wall yourself, consider how well you know the local building codes. We suggest that you hire a master electrician to help you navigate the process of obtaining permits, scheduling inspections, and making any necessary changes to remain in compliance.

Our master electrician knows all relevant electrical codes for your home in New Jersey. For example, did you know that the national electric code requires an outlet every 12 feet? Also, if you install a bathroom or countertops, you’ll need to use GFCI outlets to comply with most state, local and national codes.

Most basement refinishing jobs require upgrades to your electrical service panel. Contact DK Electrical Solutions to schedule a consultation and determine whether adding a 15- or 20-amp circuit breaker will help provide power to your new living area. Our qualified electrician can handle all the details needed to properly install lights, circuit breakers, and outlets in your basement.

Basement Electrical Wiring Cost

It costs between $2 and $5 per square foot to the wire of basement remodel. It all depends on your plans for your finished basement. Simple jobs may require new lighting schemes, while more complicated renovations require significant changes to accommodate large appliances.

When we bid on a job, our technician provides an upfront quote that we commit to. This saves you the hassle of paying an hourly wage that can quickly lead to cost overruns.

Basement Electrical Ideas

There are endless ways to improve an unfinished or outdated basement. For example, fluorescent lights provide efficient illumination, while recessed lighting can add ambiance and help you define different areas. We also suggest installing different kinds of lights on dedicated circuits for the power you need without causing an electrical short.

If you decide to move your washroom downstairs or add a second refrigerator, you can count on DK Electrical Solutions to add the necessary amperes to the breaker box.

Three-way switches make it convenient to turn lights off and on safely.

Whatever changes you have in store for your basement renovation, we can design and implement the corresponding electrical upgrades. Check out our online gallery to see our work or to get ideas for your home renovation projects.

I had an initial meeting with Goerge to discuss installing two ceiling fans. He was very personable and professional. Our project will be completed next week! George completed installation of two ceiling fans. He did excellent work and cleaned the area thoroughly when he was done. I would definitely recommend DK Electric and George for all of your needs.

Bob Edwards from DK Electrical Solutions was a great technician. Bob was personable, knowledgeable, honest, and forthcoming with information to help me feel confident in his explorations and comfortable with his expertise, prior to accepting the bid. Bob installed 2, 20amp breakers, one for a double 110v outlet for a basement freezer & refrigerator and one for a single dedicated NEMA 5-20 110v outlet for a freeze dryer. DK Electrical Solutions provided by a detailed full home electrical safety inspection and Bob had a few minor findings to improve my home and offered quotes should I want to make those improvements in the future. The installation took about 2.5 hours, Bob left my basement cleaner than it was and he wore clean boot covers when he came in and removed them each time he stepped out, which I loved !! Communication from the front office staff in the phone to Bob in person was stellar! The Price was not the cheapest but also not the most expensive, the confidence and knowledge DK Electrical Solutions presented won them my business, the quality and proof of solid work has won over a customer for life! Thank you Bob and Dk Electrical Solutions

I would highly recommend this company. When Mr. Joe L came out to give me an estimate , he was so polite. I contacted several companies to get an estimate. The prices were basically in the same price range but because of how Mr. Joe represented his company, he was the reason I decided on DK Electrical. He explained everything to me and made sure I understood. He was patient and kind. I have an appointment for another job already.

This is my second time using DK Electric. The second was followup to finish the light bc I had to order it. I was serviced by Bob and George or as I called them "The A Team"!" Just so professional and knowledgeable about all things electric. I also asked them to install a smoke detector which is in a precarious position and was charged $190. Fair. If I have an electric problem I shall call DK Electric bc the entire "A" team is the one to call. I love it when a plan comes together.

Derrick and DK electrical solutions are amazing!! We had an electrical wire break underground and struggled for a week to find a company that could dig up the area and solve our problem. He came the day I called and after one long day of hard work, I once again have electricity. He was so incredibly kind, reasonably priced, thoughtful, professional and clearly loves problem solving. Thank you so much for everything. Please call DK for all your electrical needs but especially those that involve underground electrical wiring. Updating in 2026. Just used DK again to diagnose some issues around my house. Bob and George were super kind and knowledgeable. Still super happy with the service.

Had power out in two rooms of the house and they were able to get a technician over same day in the afternoon. Joe went over the pricing with us immediately and gave us a flat rate no matter the time it took or work done. He checked literally everywhere to no avail and then suggested there might be an outlet hidden in our closet. He was right about that and after checking that outlet he fou d the source of the problem. Replaced the outlet and a burnt wire and we have power again! Was super polite and thorough and got the job done thanks to his dedication and skill. If we ever have electric issues again DK will be the first and last place we call to get it solved. Thanks for your help Joe!

As usual I called DK with an emergency. I was displaced by a fire in my neighbors home. My meter was removed during the worst snow storms in nine years. The process of filing my permits was made easier with Britney's help. Derek went above and beyond by hand carrying the paperwork to the township building. You couldn't hire a better team. I have always had positive interactions with the staff.

We couldn’t be happier with the work DK Electric did for us. We initially called them for a couple of dead outlets in our kitchen, and Bob came out quickly to troubleshoot. He went above and beyond our expectations, not only addressing the dead outlets issue but also doing a very thorough safety check on our entire house (and helping us move heavy furniture to inspect more outlets!). Our panel was starting to age to the point it was no longer safe, and Bob very thoroughly explained what options were (and was very honest and non-pushy about it). We ended up hiring DK to upgrade our service a couple weeks later, and Bob and George were amazing. They were incredibly nice, self-sufficient, and clean. They explained everything they did in detail and made sure we understood everything before they wrapped up the job. Communication with everyone in the office was wonderful too - super friendly and easy to work with! We highly recommend DK Electric.

So happy with the service from DK and Joe L. So informative, thorough. We had a little arching issue with an outlet and Joe fixed the issue, made us feel safe. Thanks for the quick service! Will definitely be using them again. Had Joe come back for another job. We had our house upgraded from 100 to 200 amp. Also had the inside switches and outlets all redone. We had a dedicated plug for an electric heater for our great room. Again Joe did an amazing job, gave us a couple options on location and did an amazing job. Would highly recommend!

Bob and George were great! I wanted legacy recessed lighting replaced with LED lights in my kitchen and bath and the wiring done for my Ring doorbell. They did all of it efficiently and neatly. When I wanted to adjust the LEDs to a warmer setting George came back and did it within a 1/2 hour or so. I will say that DK's pricing was a bit high, but I needed it done promptly, I had confidence that DK would do it properly, and I knew that the LED lights aren't cheap.

This was my first experience with DK ELECTRICAL. I called yesterday with my problem ( Thursday) , scheduled for an appointment (Monday), and was called again this morning with an offer to take the appointment today due to another’s cancellation. I was thrilled!! My technician, Joe Linarello was on time, texted with photo ID before arrival, very professional and I appreciate that he put shoe coverings on, and was able to fix my issue promptly. We also discussed the possibility of replacing my electrical panel in the near future, and Joe gave me excellent pricing and much needed updated safety features with the installation. I am looking forward to being a regular customer with DK ELECTRICAL, and I would highly recommend this company for all your electrical needs. 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I had new outlet run for my new electric fireplace in my tv room. It was run directly from the breaker panel to the outside wall in my den. It included a new 20 amp breaker going to a 20 amp quad outlet behind the unit. Joe and his coworker did a great job. Clean and neat and above all quickly done. I couldn’t be happier. I have used this company at least 4 other times. Always professional and courteous.
