Homeowners and property managers across Washington, D.C. rely on Pirro Electric for recessed lighting. Washington, D.C.'s housing stock is overwhelmingly pre-1950, meaning knob-and-tube remnants, undersized 60–100A services, original federal-style fuse panels, and aluminum wiring in mid-century apartment conversions. D.C. permitting and DCRA inspections add complexity that we manage end-to-end.
From Columbia Heights, Petworth, Brookland, and H Street, our licensed electricians deliver the same permitted, code-compliant work that has kept us in business across the DMV since 2003. Kitchen, basement, hallway, and whole-home recessed lighting - laid out, cut in, and dimmable.
