A licensed electrician for your home
Electrical work in a house needs to be done right the first time. It's what keeps your family safe, it has to pass inspection, and it matters when you sell. CDS Electric & Industrial Services is a licensed North Carolina electrical contractor that has worked in eastern NC since 1994. The same standards we use in plants and commercial buildings go into every home we work in.
Residential services
Panel and service upgrades
Older homes often have panels that are full, outdated or too small for today's loads: heat pumps, electric water heaters, shops and car chargers. We replace panels and upgrade electrical service, and handle the permit and the coordination with your power company.
Wiring and rewiring
From adding circuits for a new appliance or a shop to rewiring parts of an older house, we install wiring that's sized correctly and up to code.
Repairs and troubleshooting
Breakers that keep tripping, outlets that stopped working, lights that flicker: we find the cause and fix it.
Additions, outbuildings and shops
New rooms, garages, workshops and outbuildings need power. We run feeders, set subpanels and wire the space.
Lighting and outlets
Interior and exterior lighting, added outlets and dedicated circuits.
Generator hookups
We install the transfer switches and wiring that connect a standby generator to your home, and we're an authorized Generac dealer for sales and service. See generators.
Permits and inspections
Most residential electrical work in North Carolina needs a permit and an inspection from your city or county. We pull the permit and schedule the inspection, so the work is documented and done to code.
Where we work
We serve homeowners from our base in Trenton across eastern North Carolina, including Kinston, New Bern, Jacksonville, Goldsboro, Greenville, Havelock, Morehead City, Washington, Wilson, Rocky Mount, Fayetteville, Clayton and Smithfield. See the service area.
