About us
Beacon Electric Co. — licensed since 2008
Documented, licensed, and insured electrical work for Montgomery and Prince George's County homeowners.
Beacon Electric Co. was founded in 2008 on a simple premise: electrical work should be assessed, quoted in writing, and documented at every stage — not guessed at and invoiced after the fact. 18 years later, that same standard still governs every emergency call, panel upgrade, and rewiring project we take on.
Today our licensed technicians have completed 3,400+ jobs across Silver Spring, Rockville, Bethesda, and the surrounding D.C. suburbs, maintaining a 4.9-star rating across 312+ Google reviews. We're rated highly because homeowners know exactly what they're paying for before a single wire is touched.
Licensed, bonded, and insured — certificates available on request. Every project is documented, photographed, and walked through before final payment.

“Our breaker panel started smoking around 9pm and Beacon had a technician at the house within the hour. He explained exactly what failed, replaced the breaker, and emailed me a summary the next morning for our insurance file. Professional from the first call.”
Diane R. · Silver Spring
“We'd been putting off our panel upgrade for years because every quote felt vague. Beacon walked us through permit costs, timeline, and exactly what a 200-amp panel would support before we signed anything. Power was back on the same day, and the inspector had no issues.”
Marcus T. · Rockville
“They checked our panel capacity before even quoting the charger install, which two other companies skipped. Turned out we needed a small subpanel addition, which they explained clearly instead of just installing something undersized. Charger has worked flawlessly for eight months.”
Priya K. · Bethesda
“Our 1962 house still had some of the original aluminum wiring. The rewiring crew worked room by room so we weren't without power for more than a few hours at a time, and they documented every new circuit for us. It wasn't cheap, but it was clearly done right.”
James O. · Hyattsville
“A flickering circuit in our kitchen had two other electricians stumped and one just wanted to replace the whole panel. Beacon's tech traced it to a loose junction box connection in about 40 minutes and showed me photos of the actual problem. Fixed for a fraction of what I feared.”
Angela F. · Wheaton
“After losing power twice last winter we finally installed a standby generator. They sized it based on our actual appliance load rather than pushing the biggest unit, and the transfer switch test during installation gave us real confidence it'll work when we need it.”
Robert S. · Takoma Park
“Several outlets in our sunroom had gone dead and felt warm to the touch. The technician traced it back to a wiring issue behind the wall instead of just swapping outlets, which I appreciated since that's clearly what was actually wrong. Everything's been solid since.”
Linda M. · Greenbelt
“Our recessed lighting kept tripping the circuit whenever it rained, and it turned out to be a compromised exterior fixture seal. They repaired it, tested it under load twice, and gave me notes on what to watch for going forward. No more issues after two storms.”
David C. · Laurel
