Do you do electrical work in Old Town Alexandria's historic homes?

Yes. Old Town's 18th- and 19th-century rowhomes often have knob-and-tube remnants and undersized original services behind walls that have been renovated more than once. Work in the historic district also requires coordination with the Board of Architectural Review, which we handle as part of the job.

Who's the permit authority and utility for Alexandria electrical work?

The City of Alexandria issues electrical permits, and Dominion Energy is the utility for service upgrades and new connections. We pull permits and manage utility coordination on every job.

Can you upgrade a Del Ray or Rosemont bungalow to a 200-amp service?

Yes, this is common work for us in Alexandria. Many of these early-1900s and mid-century homes were built with much smaller services and, in some cases, aluminum branch wiring from later renovations. We handle the load calculation, panel installation, and city/utility coordination.

Are you a licensed electrician in Alexandria, VA?

Yes. Pirro Electric holds Virginia electrical contractor license 2705198087, plus licensing in Maryland and D.C. We're fully insured and pull our own permits.

Do you handle aluminum wiring remediation in Alexandria?

Yes. It shows up frequently in Alexandria's 1960s ramblers and some Del Ray renovations. We do a full copper replacement and document it for insurance purposes.

Local Knowledge

Electrical Challenges Specific to Alexandria

Every neighborhood has its own quirks. Here's what we routinely see in Alexandria, VA.

Old Town Alexandria's 18th- and 19th-century rowhomes often still have surface-mounted knob-and-tube remnants, undersized services, and original fuse panels behind walls that have been renovated multiple times, so any real electrical work there also has to go through the Board of Architectural Review because of the historic district. Del Ray's early-1900s bungalows and Rosemont's older single-family homes have a mix of original wiring and 1960s-era aluminum branch circuits that need remediation. Seminary Hill and Beverley Hills, built mostly in the 1940s-60s, commonly still run on 100-amp services. Eisenhower Valley and Potomac Yard are the newer end of the city, with mid-rise office and residential buildings that need ongoing tenant fit-outs and EV-ready garage wiring. Electrical permits in Alexandria go through the City of Alexandria, and Dominion Energy is the utility for service coordination.
