What We Do
Electrical Services for Jersey Shore Homes and Businesses
Shore homes ask a lot of their wiring. Older bungalows were built for a few lamps and a refrigerator, and today they carry central air, induction ranges, pool pumps and a car charger in the driveway. Our services cover that whole range, from first rough wiring in a new build to the upgrades that let an older house keep up.
Homeowners, builders, property managers and small business owners all use the same crew and the same standard: correct, code compliant work, a clean site and a clear explanation of what was done.
New Construction and Additions
Wiring New Homes and Additions Correctly From Day One
New construction and home additions are the heart of our work. Wiring a space correctly while the walls are open costs far less than fixing it after the drywall goes up, so we plan circuits, outlets, lighting and dedicated lines with you and your builder before the first wire is pulled. That planning is how a new kitchen ends up with power where the appliances actually go.
We handle rough wiring, temporary service for the build, panel work, fixtures and devices, and the corrections an inspector may ask for. Builders get an electrician who shows up on schedule and keeps the inspection moving, and homeowners get a space that is safe and ready for years of use. Learn more about our new construction electrician services in Brick.
Additions and renovations bring their own questions. Can the existing panel carry a new primary suite, a finished basement or a detached garage? Does the old wiring in the walls you are opening need to be replaced? We answer those questions during the estimate, so there are no surprises halfway through the project and no change orders that could have been avoided.

Why Neighbors Choose JL General Electric Services
People hire an electrician in Brick, NJ for skill, but they call back because of how the job went. Leo built this company on a few habits that every customer can count on, whether the work is a single outlet or a whole house.
- We show up when we say we will and finish in a timely manner.
- We diagnose the real cause before recommending a fix.
- We treat your home with respect and leave the work area clean.
- We explain what we find and price the work fairly.
- We stand behind panel upgrades with a 10-year guarantee.
That combination is why so many of our jobs come from neighbors, builders and property managers who have worked with us before.

How Our Electrical Process Works
Good electrical work follows a clear sequence, and you should know where your project stands at every step. Here is how most jobs go, from the first call to the final check.
-
Talk Through the Problem or Project
Call or send the form with what is happening or what you want to build. A few details about the space and the symptoms help us arrive prepared.
-
Free On-Site Estimate
Leo looks at the panel, the wiring and the space, then explains the options and the price before any work is scheduled.
-
Code Compliant Installation
The work is done to code, with permits and township inspections arranged where the job requires them.
-
Final Walkthrough and Cleanup
We test every circuit we touched, walk you through the finished work and leave the area as clean as we found it.
Everyday Electrical Repairs and Upgrades in Ocean County
You never think about how much you rely on electricity until a breaker trips or the power goes out. When that happens, a quick and accurate diagnosis matters more than anything else. We trace short circuits, faulty wiring and failing outlets to their source, then fix the cause rather than the symptom. See how electrical repair in Brick works.
Many homes along the shore also need more capacity than they were built with. A panel upgrade in Brick makes room for new appliances and circuits, and a backup generator installation keeps the lights and the sump pump on when a storm knocks out power. Each comes with the same careful approach and a clear quote.
Safety work rounds out most visits. Hardwired smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, GFCI protection in kitchens and baths, and proper grounding are easy to overlook until an inspection or a home sale brings them up, and we can handle them during the same trip.

It is very difficult to find reliable and qualified electricians. We called Leo for an electrical issue. He came quickly and fixed the problem. He also made recommendation for preventing the problem in the future. We scheduled that with Leo. I had old lights under my kitchen cabinets that needed to be replaced. We had Leo do this as well. His communication is excellent. He lets you know when he is available and texts you with his arrival time. He always confirms. He does clean work and extremely knowledgeable, professional and polite. He also did work for my son as well. They were very satisfied. We recommend him highly.

Leo was extremely easy to talk to and very knowledgeable about ordering my Govee permanent lights. He showed up when he said he was going to and knew our house better than we did. He installed two outlets in our attic and worked really hard with another person the entire day. He came back the next day to help us with the app on our phone. I would highly recommend!

I highly recommend Leo for any electrical work. He recently installed new LED recessed lighting in my kitchen, which has a vaulted ceiling, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. The new lighting has completely transformed the space, making it brighter, more modern, and inviting. Leo was professional, knowledgeable, patient, and attentive to detail throughout the project. When an unexpected ceiling vent required an adjustment to the original lighting layout, he found a solution and made sure everything looked great. I especially appreciated his flexibility, reasonable pricing, and willingness to make sure I was satisfied with the finished work. It’s refreshing to find someone who takes pride in his craftsmanship and genuinely cares about his customers. I will definitely use Leo again for future electrical projects. Highly recommended!

We have been using this company for the past three years. Leo is by far the best electrician we have ever had. He actually came on a Sunday morning since both he and I had a busy month but found time to accommodate both of our schedules and installed two light fixtures. If your looking for an electrician who you can trust, Leo is the man to call. Truly a professional and always returns your call or text message the same day.

Leo removed an attic fan and installed a new one for us. He showed up on time, diagnosed the issue and ordered the parts. He came back the next day and did the installation. He was very professional and the cost was reasonable. I would use JL Electric again, and I would recommend them to anyone in need of electrical services.

I would highly recommend JL General Electrical Services. I contacted them for an attic fan repair. Leo was quick to respond and on time for our appointment. He is a soft spoken professional and made the repair without having to replace the unit. The price was very reasonable. While there, he was able to do a quick repair on my low voltage landscape lights that I thought needed to be replaced! Don’t hesitate to hire JL General Electric for any electrical repairs you may need. We are happy to have found him.

After a succession of No Shows and substandard contract work, we were delighted to meet an old-school contractor who is responsive, professional and hard-working. We have had a nagging and serious crawl space water issue for two years and Leo worked tirelessly in bitter cold weather and tight quarters to install our sump pump and purge our crawl space of 5+ inches of water. He is quite happy to tackle small jobs, refine estimates based on needs and changing circumstances … and his work is of the utmost quality and fully compliant with the latest electrical codes. He also has a fine team of partners in plumbing and framing that we have placed our faith in, based on our experiences with Leo.

Leo has done a number of projects for me, and most recently he installed permanent outdoor lighting, which came out beautifully. His work is impeccable, but more than just the quality of his work, he is incredibly smart and easy to talk to. I can approach him with a project and leave with a plan instead of problems. I cannot recommend him highly enough. Anyone would be lucky to experience his handiwork.

Called JL Electric (Leo) to diagnose and repair my Attic Fan and also added on a repair of a shower high hat. Leo was prompt and friendly from the start. He quickly diagnosed that there was no electircal issue, just a faulty Attica Fan motor. Leo suggested and priced the replacement of the motor & thermostat and upon approval went to get the replacement and returned and installed. Overall, we are very pleased with Leo, his work and what I consider very commpetiitve pricing. Highly recommend him especially to seniors and will definately use him for future needs.

I am so pleased and happy with the job done by Leo and his team! He not only made our house holiday fun but safe for my parents myself and the rest of my family and friends and visitors. I can’t decide which of the Halloween presets I like best so I posted them all. I’m still and novice at this and learning all the fun things you can do with the lights. Thanks again Leo. Oh also, I had another person give me a quote and he tried to talk me out of the holiday lights so his quote did not include that and he didn’t think we should install the recessed lights in my parents apartment. His quote was the same as Leo’s. So reasonably priced excellent work and technique and there was no clean up for us to do. I would definitely recommend this company to all my friends neighbors and family!

Leo did some amazing work at my house over the past year for an affordable cost. Quality of work was great and he definitely gives you better customer service then some of these bigger brands. First work I had was electric for my living room and kitchen. Rewiring, adding lights, new switches, etc, did it in a timely fashion and provide insight on why he was doing it this way instead of making me buy an entire new system like some of the other companies quoted me. 2nd time he came back he worked on 3 bed rooms adding lights, new switches and outlets. He also did the outside outlets for me as well. Came out looking great. Again, affordable and quality work that he did on this latest run for me. I have another project for him but so far so good and I will definitely continue to recommend him to the people around me. Price and quality are definitely A1

Extremely satisfied. Was unsure at first going with a company with not many reviews on google maps however, I did my homework (checked reviews on other platforms), interviewed other electricians in the area on availability and reasonable price, and JL was my choice. Within less than a week they were able to not only give me a quote, but actually have the hard-wired/interconnected smoke detectors installed for an inspection that passed! Excellent job, was happy to put my trust in this company and would again. Highly recommend.

Electricians in Brick NJ and Across the Jersey Shore
Brick Township is home base for our electricians in Brick, NJ, and our crew works throughout Ocean County and the nearby Monmouth County shore towns, from the Barnegat Bay neighborhoods to the boardwalk communities up the coast. Each town has its own housing stock and its own permit office, and we know both.

Electrical Work for Bayfront and Riverfront Homes
Brick sits where the Metedeconk River meets Barnegat Bay, and that water shapes how houses here should be wired. Salt air corrodes outdoor receptacles, panels and fixture hardware faster than inland, so we use weather resistant devices and covers outdoors and check connections for corrosion during repairs.
Storms are part of shore life too. Hurricane Sandy pushed bay water into homes in neighborhoods like Cherry Quay in 2012, and many houses that were rebuilt or raised afterward needed new service, new panels and new circuits. Whole-house surge protection, a generator inlet and GFCI protection near water are practical steps that help a home ride out the next storm with less damage. Our whole house surge protection service is a good place to start.
Outdoor living matters here as much as anywhere on the shore. Pool equipment, outdoor kitchens, landscape lighting and sheds all need circuits that stand up to sun, sand and spray, and we build them with that exposure in mind.

Questions About Hiring a Brick NJ Electrician
Still not sure? Call and describe what is going on, and Leo will tell you whether a visit makes sense.
(732) 621-0778Do you offer free estimates for electrical work?
Yes. JL General Electric Services offers free estimates on our services. Leo looks at the panel, the wiring and the space, explains what he finds and gives you a clear price before anything is scheduled. Call (732) 621-0778 or send the contact form to set up a visit at a time that works for you.
Do you work with builders on new homes and additions?
Yes, new construction and additions are our specialty. We work with builders and homeowners from the planning stage through rough wiring, panel work, fixtures and final inspection. Wiring correctly while the walls are open saves money and headaches later, so we like to be involved early in the project, before framing is finished.
Do you handle commercial electrical work as well as homes?
Yes. Along with residential work, we handle small commercial wiring, LED lighting upgrades, exit signs, emergency lighting and scheduled maintenance for businesses and rental properties. Property managers and business owners get the same punctual, clean and clearly explained service that our residential customers count on every day.
What guarantees come with your work?
Electrical panel upgrades come with a 10-year guarantee, and attic fan installations carry a one-year warranty. Beyond those written guarantees, we stand behind every job we complete. If something is not right after a visit, call us and we will come back to make it right as quickly as we can.
What are your business hours?
We work Monday through Thursday from 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Friday from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM and Saturday from 7:00 AM to 1:00 PM. We are closed on Sunday. Call during those hours to schedule service or a free estimate, or send the form any time and we will reply.
Schedule Your Free Estimate With a Local Electrician
Whether you are planning an addition, building from the ground up or chasing a breaker that keeps tripping, one call gets an experienced electrician on the job. Reach us Monday to Thursday 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Friday 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM and Saturday 7:00 AM to 1:00 PM.
