Residential Electrical in Washington, DC - Pirro Electric

Pirro Electric brings 23 years of D.C. electrical experience to every residential electrical job in Washington. 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.

On any given month you'll find our trucks handling rowhome rewiring with dcra permit coordination and service upgrades from 100a to 200a across Logan Circle, Shaw, Columbia Heights, and Petworth. We pull permits in Washington, schedule inspections, and walk you through the work so nothing gets left to guess.
