Starr Electric provides residential, commercial, and industrial electrical services throughout Eastern Connecticut. Every job is handled personally by James Starr — licensed master electrician with over 30 years of experience right here in the community.
An outdated electrical panel is one of the most serious safety hazards in any home or business. If your panel is tripping breakers, running hot, or was built before the 1990s, it may be time for an upgrade.
James handles every panel change personally — from pulling the permit to final inspection — so you get code-compliant, insurer-approved work every single time.
Eastern Connecticut winters are unpredictable. Ice storms, high winds, and downed lines can leave your home without power for days. A properly installed generator hook-up means your family stays warm, your food stays cold, and your life stays on track.
Starr Electric installs generator transfer switches and interlock kits to code — safely connecting your generator to your home's electrical system without the risk of backfeeding the grid.
Running extension cords across rooms or tripping breakers when you plug in the coffee maker are signs your home needs more circuits. Whether you're building a home office, finishing a basement, or adding a workshop in the garage, Starr Electric gets it done right.
Every outlet and circuit we install meets current National Electrical Code standards — no shortcuts, no guesswork, no fire hazards hiding in your walls.
Good lighting transforms a space. Whether you're upgrading to recessed LEDs in the living room, adding outdoor security lighting, or installing under-cabinet lights in the kitchen — Starr Electric handles it cleanly and professionally.
We work with what you have in mind. Bring us a plan, a Pinterest photo, or just tell us what's bothering you about your current setup — and James will make it work.
