New Carrollton (ZIPs 20784, 20785) was developed in the 1960s as a planned community around what would become the New Carrollton Metro station — one of the first transit-oriented communities in the DC suburbs. The garden apartments, townhouses, and single-family homes from that era have electrical systems that are now 50–60 years old. Undersized panels, aluminum wiring in some homes from the late 1960s–1970s (a fire risk that requires assessment), and outdated outlets are common issues. Metro adjacency also means higher-than-average EV adoption, as residents who commute by train still own cars and want reliable home charging.
We serve New Carrollton and the surrounding communities of Carrollton Manor, Landover Hills, and the Cheverly border area. PG County DPIE in Largo handles permits, and Pepco is the local utility. Significant transit-oriented development investment is reshaping New Carrollton's commercial core, but most of the residential neighborhoods remain mid-century stock where electrical upgrades are overdue. EV charger installations near the Metro station area are a growing part of our work here.
