Commercial Electrical in Capitol Hill, DC - Pirro Electric

Pirro Electric handles commercial electrical for homeowners, businesses, and property managers in Capitol Hill, DC. Work is scoped on site, quoted in writing, permitted, and inspected before we call it done. Typical scope: new construction and tenant build-outs, office circuitry, data, and lighting installation, and underground wiring and electric meter setup.

Capitol Hill's defining feature is its dense rows of late-19th-century rowhomes - knob-and-tube remnants, undersized panels, two-prong outlets, and a constant need for permit-coordinated full rewires. Many are condo-converted and have shared service equipment that needs upgrading.
