Electrician in Greensboro, NC
Serving Greensboro homeowners and businesses with licensed, insured electrical work — no shortcuts, no surprises.
Greensboro is the largest city in the Triad, and its electrical needs are just as diverse as its neighborhoods. From the post-war ranch homes of Irving Park to the townhouses sprouting up near Downtown and the university districts, Dausman Electric has worked in virtually every type of property Greensboro has to offer. We understand the city's permitting requirements through the Greensboro Inspection Department and we pull proper permits on every job that requires one.
Panel upgrades are one of our most requested services in Greensboro. Homes built in the 1960s through the 1980s often still have 100-amp Federal Pacific or Zinsco panels — brands that have been linked to breaker failures and house fires. Replacing these with a modern 200-amp panel from Square D or Eaton improves safety dramatically and prepares your home for today's electrical demands. We handle the full process from permit application to the final inspection sign-off.
Greensboro's commercial corridor along Battleground Avenue and in the Cone Health medical district creates steady demand for commercial electrical work. Dausman Electric handles tenant buildouts, lighting retrofits for energy efficiency, dedicated circuits for medical or food service equipment, and electrical inspections for properties changing hands. We work around your business schedule to minimize disruption.
The Greensboro area has seen a significant uptick in EV charger installations over the past few years, driven by both local incentive programs and the explosion of electric vehicle ownership. Installing a Level 2 home charger means you wake up every morning with a full charge rather than stopping at a public station. We run the dedicated 50-amp circuit from your panel, install a wall-mounted EVSE, and handle the Greensboro permit process start to finish.
Greensboro also sits in a region that sees its share of summer thunderstorms and occasional ice storms that knock out Duke Energy power for hours — sometimes days. More homeowners in Guilford County are investing in whole-home standby generators for that reason. We install and connect automatic transfer switch systems so that when the grid goes down, your generator kicks on within seconds and your refrigerator, HVAC, and medical equipment stay running.

How do I know if my Federal Pacific panel needs to be replaced?
Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) Stab-Lok panels have a documented history of breaker failures and are considered a fire hazard by many electrical inspectors and insurance companies. If your home has one, we recommend a free inspection. We'll give you an honest assessment — replacement may be advisable even if the panel appears to be working fine.

Yes. We work with property owners, general contractors, and business owners on commercial projects of all sizes — from a single new circuit for a retail buildout to full electrical installations for new commercial construction. We're familiar with Greensboro commercial code requirements.
