Are you licensed for commercial work in DC, Maryland, and Virginia?

Do you work directly with general contractors and property managers?

Can you do electrical work after hours so we don't disrupt tenants?

Yes. We routinely schedule night and weekend shutdowns for retail, restaurants, and office buildings - quoted upfront so there are no surprises.

Do you cover all of Fairfax's ZIP codes?

Yes, we serve 22030 through 22035, including Fairfax City, the Mosaic District area, Fair Oaks, Oakton, and the areas near Burke, Centreville, Vienna, and Annandale.

Why does my 1970s Fairfax townhome keep tripping breakers?

It's often a combination of an aging Federal Pacific or Zinsco panel and aluminum branch wiring that was standard in that era. Both were common in Fairfax County construction from the 1970s and 80s, and both are worth having inspected rather than just replacing the breaker over and over.

Commercial Electrical in Fairfax, VA - Pirro Electric

Pirro Electric handles commercial electrical for homeowners, businesses, and property managers in Fairfax, VA. 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.

Fairfax's huge stock of 1970s-80s single-family homes and townhomes in areas like Fair Oaks, Oakton, and neighborhoods near Fairfax City carries a lot of aluminum branch wiring, original Federal Pacific panels, and 100-amp services that are now overloaded by EVs, added HVAC, and home offices. Old Town Fairfax has an older core of homes that mix knob-and-tube remnants with later aluminum-era rewiring, so it's not unusual to find both problems in one house.

Fairfax Context

Local Conditions We Work Around in Fairfax

Commercial stretches along Route 50 and Route 29, plus the Mosaic District area near Merrifield, generate steady tenant fit-out and lighting retrofit work as retail and office space turns over. Fairfax County issues most electrical permits here, with Dominion Energy as the utility for the majority of the county and NOVEC serving parts of western Fairfax, so we confirm which utility applies before scheduling service work.
