Most homes in Kings Park weren’t built for how you live today. Your electrical panel was designed when “high-tech” meant a microwave and a desktop computer. Now you’re running smart thermostats, home offices, multiple streaming devices, and maybe even an EV charger.
When your breakers trip every time you run the dishwasher and microwave together, that’s not a quirk. That’s your system telling you it’s overloaded. When lights flicker as the AC kicks on, you’ve got a capacity problem that only gets worse.
The right electrical contractor doesn’t just patch the problem. We assess what your home actually needs, explain what’s happening in plain terms, and give you options that make sense for your budget and your plans. You get a system that handles your real life without constant resets, service calls, or wondering if something’s about to go wrong.

Panel upgrades are one of the most common jobs we handle in Kings Park. Most homes here were built with 100-150 amp panels, but today’s electrical demands typically require 200 amps. When you’re constantly resetting breakers or can’t add new circuits, an upgrade isn’t optional—it’s necessary.
Generator installations have become essential for Suffolk County homeowners who’ve lived through too many extended outages. We size the system correctly for your home, handle the permits, and make sure it’s ready when the power goes out.
EV charger installation is increasingly common as more residents switch to electric vehicles. A Level 2 charger lets you fully charge overnight and adds real value to your home. We install it right, run the proper circuits, and ensure your panel can handle the load.
Emergency electrical work doesn’t wait for business hours. When you’ve got sparking outlets, burning smells, or complete power loss, our local electrical contractor team responds fast. We’re available 24/7 because electrical emergencies are safety issues, not inconveniences.
Your panel needs upgrading if breakers trip frequently, especially when running normal appliances together. If you can’t use your microwave and toaster at the same time without resetting a breaker, your circuits are overloaded.
Most Kings Park homes built before 2000 have 100-150 amp panels. Today’s homes typically need 200 amps to handle HVAC systems, kitchen appliances, home offices, entertainment systems, and charging stations. If you’re adding major appliances or an EV charger, your current panel likely can’t support the additional load.
Other signs include flickering lights when appliances turn on, outlets that feel warm to the touch, or a panel that’s over 25 years old. Older panels weren’t designed for modern electrical demands and can create safety hazards when pushed beyond their capacity.
A panel upgrade starts with assessing your current system and calculating your actual electrical load. We determine what amperage you need based on your home’s size, existing circuits, and any planned additions like EV chargers or major appliances.
The physical work involves installing a new panel box, transferring existing circuits, adding new circuits as needed, and updating the connection to your utility’s service line. We handle all required permits and inspections with the Town of Smithtown, which governs Kings Park.
Most residential panel upgrades take one full day. We shut off power during the work, so plan accordingly. Once complete, you’ll have a modern electrical system with proper capacity, clearly labeled circuits, and room for future additions. The upgrade also brings your home up to current electrical code, which matters for safety and resale value.
Yes, we provide 24 hour electrician services throughout Kings Park and Suffolk County. Electrical emergencies don’t follow a schedule, and some situations can’t wait until Monday morning.
Call us immediately if you smell burning near outlets or your panel, see sparking from any electrical component, experience complete power loss in part of your home, or notice outlets that are hot to the touch. These are safety issues that need immediate professional attention.
Our emergency response includes the same licensed electricians who handle scheduled work, the same upfront pricing approach, and the same quality standards. We arrive in marked vehicles with the tools and materials to diagnose and resolve most emergency situations on the spot. Emergency calls do carry premium rates compared to scheduled service, but you’ll know the cost before we start work.
Electrical work pricing depends entirely on what you need done. A simple outlet repair might run $150-300. Adding new circuits typically costs $400-900 per circuit depending on complexity and distance from the panel. Panel upgrades generally range from $2,500-5,000 depending on amperage and whether the service line needs updating.
We don’t charge hourly rates that keep climbing while you watch the clock. Every job gets an upfront price based on the specific work required. You approve that price before we start, and that’s what you pay—no surprise additions when we’re done.
The free estimate is actually free. We come to your home, assess what’s needed, explain your options, and give you a clear price. If you decide not to move forward, you haven’t spent anything. This approach works because we’d rather earn your business through transparency than trap you with service call fees.
Yes, Marra Electric is fully licensed and insured for all electrical work throughout Suffolk County, including Kings Park. Every electrician on our team carries proper licensing, and we maintain comprehensive liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage.
Licensing matters because electrical work is governed by strict codes for safety reasons. A licensed electrical contractor knows current code requirements, pulls proper permits when needed, and completes work that passes inspection. Unlicensed work can create serious safety hazards and cause problems when you sell your home.
Insurance protects you if something goes wrong. If there’s an accident on your property or damage occurs during the work, our coverage handles it—you’re not left holding the bill. We’re happy to provide proof of licensing and insurance before starting any job. It’s a reasonable thing to ask for, and any legitimate electrical company should provide it without hesitation.
Simple repairs like replacing an outlet, fixing a light switch, or resetting a tripped GFCI usually take 30 minutes to an hour once we’ve diagnosed the issue. Adding a new circuit or installing a ceiling fan might take 2-4 hours depending on access and distance from the panel.
Larger projects have different timelines. Panel upgrades typically take a full day. Whole-home generator installation usually requires 1-2 days including the concrete pad, gas line work, electrical connections, and startup. EV charger installation generally takes 3-6 hours depending on where you want it located and whether your panel needs modifications.
We give you realistic timeframes when we provide your estimate. If we run into unexpected issues—old wiring that needs replacement, access problems, or code compliance requirements—we explain what’s needed and how it affects timing before proceeding. You’re not left wondering what’s taking so long or why the job isn’t done when promised.
