Our licensed electricians can identify electrical problems, replace outdated components and complete the wiring needed for new equipment, renovations and property improvements.

Virginia Beach Electrical Panels, Breaker Boxes, and Wiring

An electrical panel distributes power to the circuits throughout a property. An outdated fuse box, damaged breaker box or undersized panel may have difficulty supporting modern electrical demands. Warning signs can include repeatedly tripped breakers, visible corrosion, unusual sounds, heat near the panel or limited capacity for additional circuits.

Gault Electric provides electrical-panel upgrades, breaker-box replacement, fuse-box replacement and electrical service upgrades in Virginia Beach. Our electricians can inspect the existing equipment and determine whether the system requires a repair, component replacement or larger upgrade.

We also provide outlet wiring, new circuit-breaker installation, dedicated circuits and home rewiring. These improvements may be needed when remodeling a kitchen, adding

equipment, replacing older wiring or preparing a property for increased electrical use.

Indoor, Outdoor and Commercial Lighting

Lighting affects visibility, security, energy use and the appearance of a property. Gault Electric installs indoor lighting, outdoor lighting, recessed lights, chandeliers, under-cabinet lighting, floodlights, pole lights and lighting controls.

Businesses can also contact Gault Electric for commercial lighting installation, lighting repairs and LED lighting upgrades. A commercial lighting retrofit can improve visibility while replacing outdated fixtures and controls with equipment better suited to the property’s current needs.

Commercial Electrical Services

Gault Electric provides commercial electrical services for offices, stores, restaurants, warehouses and other business properties in Virginia Beach. Our commercial electricians can assist with electrical repairs, new installations, lighting, dedicated equipment circuits, electrical controls, breaker-box replacement and connections for appliances or commercial equipment.

Generac Generator Sales and Installation in Virginia Beach

Power outages can interrupt heating and cooling, refrigeration, lighting, communications, security equipment and other essential systems. Gault Electric provides Generac generator sales and professional generator installation to help Virginia Beach homeowners and businesses prepare for utility interruptions.

As an authorized Generac dealer, Gault Electric helps customers compare home generators, coverage options and transfer equipment. A properly selected backup generator can supply electricity to designated circuits or provide broader whole-house coverage, depending on the generator’s capacity and the property’s electrical demand.

A standby generator is permanently installed outside the home and connected to the electrical system through an automatic transfer switch. When utility power is lost, the system detects the outage, starts the generator and directs backup power to the selected circuits. Once utility service returns, the transfer switch reconnects the property to the utility supply and shuts down the generator.

Professional generator installation involves more than selecting a power generator and placing it outside. The project may require electrical connections, transfer equipment, site preparation, natural gas or propane connections, system testing and coordination with local requirements. Gault Electric’s electrical, mechanical and gas-fitting capabilities allow our team to coordinate the different parts of the installation.

Customers comparing Generac generators for sale in Virginia Beach can contact Gault Electric for current product information, pricing and an installation estimate. Visit our Generator Services page to learn more.

Choosing a Home Backup Generator

The best home generator is not necessarily the largest available unit. It is the generator that can support the equipment your household considers essential while fitting the property’s electrical system, fuel supply, available space and budget.

A smaller backup generator for a home may be designed to operate selected circuits for refrigeration, lighting, basic outlets or a well pump. A larger whole-house generator may be able to support heating and air-conditioning equipment, kitchen appliances and most or all of the property.

Before recommending a generator for a home, Gault Electric can review the appliances and systems the owner wants to operate during an outage. Our team can also evaluate the electrical panel, available natural gas or propane supply, generator location and transfer-switch requirements.

This assessment helps homeowners select a Generac backup generator based on the property rather than relying on a general online sizing estimate.

Generac Generator Service and Repair

A home backup generator may remain unused for long periods, but it must be ready to operate when an outage occurs. Preventative generator service helps identify developing problems before the system is placed under a full electrical load.

Gault Electric provides Generac generator service, maintenance, troubleshooting and repair in Virginia Beach. Our factory-trained generator technicians can inspect the battery, charging system, filters, spark plugs, controls, electrical connections, transfer equipment and other components.

Generator repair may be needed if a unit does not start, fails its regular exercise cycle, displays a warning code, shuts down unexpectedly or struggles to support its normal load. Problems may involve the battery, fuel supply, sensors, controls, transfer switch or another internal component.

Our technicians can diagnose the system and determine whether the generator requires an adjustment, repair or replacement part. Providing the model number, serial number and a description of the problem when requesting service can help our team prepare for the appointment.

Routine maintenance is also important for systems that appear to be operating normally. Inspection and testing can help keep standby generators prepared for severe weather and unexpected power interruptions.

Heating and Air-Conditioning Services

Gault Electric provides heating and air-conditioning services for homes and businesses in Virginia Beach. Our HVAC technicians diagnose comfort problems, maintain existing equipment and install replacement systems when older units no longer operate reliably.

Air-conditioning service may be needed when a system stops cooling, produces unusual noises, runs continuously or causes an unexpected increase in energy consumption. Professional AC repair begins with determining whether the problem involves airflow, electrical components, the thermostat, refrigerant equipment or another part of the system.

Our HVAC services also include heating repair, heating-system installation, preventative maintenance and mini-split installation. When replacement is appropriate, Gault Electric can help customers compare heating and cooling systems based on the building, existing equipment and comfort requirements.

Residential Solar Panels in Virginia Beach

Gault Electric provides residential solar panel installation for Virginia Beach homeowners interested in producing electricity at their property. A properly planned home solar system can generate power for everyday household use while reducing dependence on electricity purchased from the utility company.

Solar installation begins with evaluating the home’s electricity consumption, available roof or property space, roof orientation, shading and existing electrical equipment. These factors help determine the appropriate size and configuration of the solar panel system.

Homeowners comparing solar companies and solar panel installers should consider the electrical experience behind the installation. A solar energy system becomes part of the home’s electrical infrastructure and requires correctly planned equipment, connections and testing.

Gault Electric combines residential solar installation

capabilities with extensive electrical experience. Visit our Solar Energy page to learn more about solar panels for your home.
