Electrical Upgrades To Do When Remodeling A House
Upgrading any feature of your home’s electrical system, whether it’s the wiring, outlets, lighting fixtures, or other components, adds greater safety, expanded functionality, more convenience, and increased resale value to a home. Here are some essential electrical upgrades for you to consider during your home renovation:
Add More Outlets and GFCI Outlets for Safety
More Outlets: Naturally, if you’re adding more square footage to your home during a remodeling project, installing new kitchen appliances, and/or updating electronic entertainment facilities, you’ll need more electrical outlets. For any additional items that will draw from existing circuits, you will need to prevent the overuse of power strips and extension cords by adding more outlets (within the load limits of the individual circuits).
More GFCI Outlets: Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter outlets are designed to help prevent incidents of potentially deadly electrocution. With a regular outlet, you do not have the same protection. With a GFCI outlet, if someone begins to be shocked, the GFCI mechanism senses it happening and stops the flow of electricity leaving the outlet before the person can be hurt. GFCIs are especially important where water may unintentionally come into direct or indirect contact with the outlet.
Upgrade to Modern / Recessed Lights
LED recessed lighting adds so much to the aesthetic appeal and functional versatility of almost any room in any home. It’s not surprising that recessed lighting is especially attractive to prospective home buyers. Even if you have previously wired light fixtures, installing recessed lights involves some unique challenges that you should consider leaving to licensed and certified Master Electricians. Other types of lighting upgrades that can update the look of your home and the safety of your electrical system include new ceiling fixtures (add luxurious dimmer switches), unique chandeliers, exterior ground lighting, stair-step night lighting, and more.
Remodel Electrical Box
This is not a glamorous upgrade, but the breaker panel is the central hub of your home’s electrical system. Everything depends on its safe and smooth functioning. Updating your breaker panel should be at the top of your list for your remodeling project to handle today’s modern needs for so many more electronic devices and appliances. Overwhelmed or old electrical breaker panels are one of the most common electrical sources of house fires. Replacing an outdated or insufficient-sized panel can save your home and family from the risk of a catastrophic house fire. That’s certainly a benefit that makes the investment in this upgrade worth it.
Update Wiring
Decades ago, homes were commonly wired with aluminum wiring and even earlier with Knob and Tube wiring. Since that time, faulty wiring of those types has caused many house fires throughout the country. The older the wiring is, the higher the risk that it may be the cause of a devastating fire. Today, many home insurance companies will not insure houses with outdated wiring types. If you remodel, you may be required in some areas to rewire your home in order to obtain building permits for your renovation project.
Add Standby Generator
In New Jersey, severe storms and hurricanes can devastate and cause widespread, prolonged power outages. Families with a whole-home generator live with the benefits of much greater comfort, convenience, and security in their homes during these events and the days to weeks afterward. Hardwired standby generators become an asset to the value of the home. So, while you’re modernizing your home’s facilities, incorporating a generator is a key consideration for owners of northern coastal homes.

Bob with DK Electrical was fantastic. Learned a lot during the inspection but did not feel pressed with a hard sell
Great attention to details and knowledge of options for solving complex problems.
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.
Bob did a great job by providing me a price quote for the project after on-site checking those red-tapped area and hearing me out about concerns from other important stakeholders.
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.
This is amazing company whom I have dealt with for several years for all my electrical concerns. Every member has been kind and knowledgeable towards the work when explaining their services. Appointments are given timely, and the job is completed as well as safety checks to your home. I highly recommend this company!
Brendan was friendly and knowledgeable, and he installed the light fixtures quickly and well. Things are now much better in my kitchen, dining room, and closets.
Wanted to give a shoutout to Bob from DK Electric Solutions who done some work in my home yesterday. What an amazing and knowledgeable young man. Not only did he explain exactly what was needed, this guy went way above and beyond what he needed to. And my guy stayed late (no extra cost) to make sure we were good. Even missed the kids parent teacher conference. Lol His wife made it tho. During these times when customer service seems to be out on the back burner, it’s extremely satisfying to see a company that prides itself on making sure the customer is a happy. They for sure have my future business.
Dk replaced our whole fuse box and also replaced our baseboard heaters . Service was excellent and they were extremely clean and efficient. I always believed you get what you pay for and that’s the truth with this company. I highly recommend them for all electric needs .
Bob did a great job. Answered all of our questions and solved all the issues
Joe was very professional and educated on what my specific concerns were. I will absolutely be reaching out again!
Installation of outdoor post lamp. Very professional, explaing the process and answering all questions. Installation went smoothly and the results were as expected of professional work.
Joe was very knowledgeable and professional, the price was very reasonable, will call again next time
Great service and special shout out also to Rebecca, who was so pleasant to deal with over the phone. Will definitely reach out again for any specific electrical needs.
Bob was amazing! He was patient and took the time to explain all of his findings. I had a small list of electrical odds and ends for him to do and he had them completed within the hour. (Improperly grounded outlets and switches, replacing electrical panel switches, etc.)
Joe was great, DK arrived promptly and did the work. I'm not a guy that likes to know how the sausage is made, I like techs and companies that come in, find problem, fix problem, without explaining what they are doing every step of the way. I really don't care, and I also have no idea what they are talking about most of the time. I'm a grocer, and an operations guy. Not an electrician. DK and Joe are perfect if you are like me and too busy to have someone explain something to you that you either don't have the need to retain or care. 5 stars...
Bob was excellent, explained the choices for a light fixture and smoke detectors and performed the installation efficiently. Highly recommend him
Brendan did a excellent job in being very thorough in all of my electrical needs. He was very pleasant and had explained different payment plans. I will definitely use DK Electricial Solutions in the future.
The electricians did a fantastic job! The were very thorough in their safety review and gave us various options to consider. They pointed problems left by a previous contractor and suggested corrections. The work was very professional and courteous. I will definitely hire them again.

Brendan did a great job as always. Always professional and willing to explain problems and solutions.
Brendan was sent out to check out aluminum branch wiring found at a home I was purchasing and he did a great job of analyzing the situation and provided explanations to the fix. Much appreciated

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ DK Electrical Solutions provided excellent customer service and went above and beyond in every way. From start to finish, the team was professional, reliable, and knowledgeable. I couldn’t be happier with their work and highly recommend them for any electrical needs!
Great job, ask for Barry. He and his assistant fixed several problems that we’ve been having with our switches and outdoor lights. Extremely knowledgeable, hard working and thorough. Very fairly priced. Excellent company. Will only use them for future needs. 8/2025 - Used DK again, Brendan, to install an EV charger in our garage. Excellent job. Totally accommodating, professional, and had it installed one week from my request. Really appreciate a company like this, as it is hard to find a great contractor like DK.
