Electrical Services in Atlanta
Atlanta has some of the oldest housing stock in the metro. Many intown neighborhoods are full of early 20th-century bungalows and mid-century ranches, and plenty of them still run on original wiring or undersized 60 and 100-amp service. At the other end, new townhomes and renovated houses are adding EV chargers, heat pumps and solar, which all need more capacity than older panels were built for.
We're based just up I-75 in Marietta and work across Atlanta for homeowners, landlords and businesses. Every job is done by licensed electricians, permitted with the City of Atlanta where required, and inspected before we sign it off.

Older Atlanta homes: what we see most
Knob-and-tube and ungrounded two-prong outlets in pre-1950 homes, Federal Pacific and Zinsco panels in homes from the 1950s to the 1980s, and kitchens and bathrooms without GFCI protection. These are fire and shock risks, and they can cause problems with insurers and home inspections when you sell. A safety inspection tells you exactly where you stand.
Renovations and additions
If you're opening up a kitchen, finishing a basement or adding a suite, the wiring has to meet current code for outlet spacing, AFCI and GFCI protection. We work alongside your general contractor so electrical rough-in fits the build schedule.
Solar and EV charging in the city
Atlanta homeowners are adding solar and Level 2 chargers fast. Both usually start with a look at your panel. We size the upgrade once so solar, battery storage and an EV charger can all run without overloading your service.
What Customers Across Metro Atlanta Say
"M D Contracting Solutions absolutely saved the day. I originally hired another solar installer to mount and wire 31 panels. What was supposed to be a 3-day project turned into a month-long ordeal… In approximately 4 hours, they removed all 31 panels, installed an additional run, added code-compliant shut-off switches and reinstalled all 31 panels. They also pulled the proper permits for my home and provided wiring diagrams for future troubleshooting reference."
"Brenton is the best electrician I've ever worked with on a home project. I did all my own research, calculations, and permitting for my solar installation. After talking to many installers, Brenton stood out because he was willing to work with my vision instead of pushing his own agenda…"
"The team showed up on time, communicated clearly throughout the project, and paid close attention to every detail. Their workmanship was excellent, and they made sure everything was completed properly and cleaned up before they left. The pricing was fair, and there were no surprises."

Electrician FAQs for Atlanta
Do you serve all of Atlanta?
Yes. We work across the City of Atlanta and the surrounding metro area for both residential and commercial customers. Call (678) 636-9692 and we'll confirm availability for your address.
Do I need a permit for electrical work in Atlanta?
Most electrical work beyond simple device swaps needs a permit. For addresses inside city limits that's through the City of Atlanta. We handle the application and schedule the inspection.
My Atlanta home still has original wiring. Is that a problem?
It can be. Knob-and-tube, aluminum branch wiring and ungrounded outlets can't safely handle modern loads and often cause insurance issues. We can inspect it and give you a written report and quote.
Can you install solar and an EV charger together?
Yes. We often do them as one project with a panel upgrade, so your service is sized once for solar, storage and EV charging.
Can you replace knob-and-tube wiring in an older Atlanta home?
Yes. We remove it and replace it with modern grounded wiring, planning routes to keep wall openings to a minimum. Many insurers want it gone, so it's often worth doing before you renew a policy or sell.
Do you work on commercial buildings in Atlanta?
Yes. We handle commercial lighting, panels, circuits and EV charging for offices, retail and multi-family buildings.
