The Dorky Electrician has a good reputation. Consequently, we have been winning over customers from day one with the electrical services we provide. Not to mention our reasonable pricing.
In addition, our service area is throughout the Greater Lehigh Valley and beyond. Established in 2017 in Coplay, PA. As a result, the company has grown from a few happy customers to thousands of smiling faces. This company has good reviews on Yelp and Google, and here are some reviews found on HomeAdvisor.
The Dorky Electrician, LLC is certified and licensed as a master electrician. In like manner, the company itself can provide a vast number of budget-friendly services. These include a mix of both residential and commercial electrical services. In general, most of the electrical services we provide do require a permit which can be easily attained.
Here you will find a basic list of main services we provide on a day-to-day basis. I hope that you find our most popular electrical services helpful.
Electrical Service and Panel Changes
By all means, our number one electrical service has to be electrical service changes and upgrades. Old fuse boxes have become a thing of the past but still exist in older homes and are definitely out of date. Furthermore, these items should be upgraded to new electrical equipment.
Frayed, dried out and cracked service cables are the number one sign that your electrical service should be changed out or upgraded. Rust is also a huge sign that water has leaked into your electrical panel and is a cause for remedy.
Another reason to upgrade your old 100-amp electrical service to a brand new 200-amp service is if you decide to increase the electrical load of your home. For example, you may decide to add central air cooling and heating. A small electrical panel wouldn’t allow for the extra breakers you need to power the new equipment. Of course, you have the option to just remove the old electrical panel and have a new larger panel of the same amperage installed. This option would be less expensive and would provide the extra room for the new breakers needed.
If you feel any doubts about your electrical service or you want to upgrade, The Dorky Electrician, LLC can help assess the condition of your electrical equipment or system to help you make an informed decision about your home’s electrical needs.

Hot Tub Electrical Wiring and Installation
Hot tubs have always been popular in our line of electrical service work. We don’t actually install the hot tub itself, but we do all the electrical wiring and installation needed to make your hot tub work for you.
Ultimately, GFCI protection is required for swimming pools and hot tubs. A GFCI protected disconnect is installed within sight of your hot tub as per National Electrical Code requirements. This is to protect the consumer from electrical shock, but also to protect expensive electronic components of the hot tub.
Speaking of sensitive electronic components. We also provide a replacement pump and parts service here at The Dorky Electrician, LLC. Please consider us for all of your hot tub needs.
Electrical Services for Car Charging Stations at Home
Electric Vehicles are getting hugely popular even more now that gas prices have skyrocketed. If you decide to make the transition to an electric vehicle you are going to need electrical services for an EV charger.
The installation isn’t hard. You just have to make an informed decision on the best electrical installation for your electric car. For instance. Electric vehicles charge at a slow pace. The lower the voltage your car charger uses the slower your car will charge. So here it would make the most sense to have your electrician install the best or the highest voltage possible for your car charger.
If you have any questions about electric car charging or EV charging stations, give us a call. Ask for Russ.

Portable Generators or Electrical Services for Stationary Generators
When a storm hits, it can hit hard. Powerful winds can blow and make trees tumble and fall onto power lines causing major electrical damage and leaving your home without power, sometimes for days.
Preparation for these dreadful times is key. A simple standby generator setup will keep your mind at ease. The Dorky Electrician, LLC can provide you with a simple plan to get set up and equipped for power outages.
A good-sized portable generator made to power your electrical service panel is really all you need. Unless you live in an enormous home then I highly suggest going with a large standby generator.
What do I Need During a Power Outage?
A lot of people feel they need to have everything working as normal when they have their normal power or electrical service working. This isn’t true. Emergency power should be limited to things you absolutely need while your power is down. Otherwise, if you try to use everything as you normally would, it will overload your generator and be costly to fuel.
Here is a list of absolute electrical needs for emergency power:
- A microwave
- Water pump
- Some form of heat
- Bathroom lights
- GFCI receptacles
- Garage door opener
- Some general lighting
- Oxygen machine
Of course, if you have a very large stationary generator installed you can have more things running on your emergency power. To clarify, the difference is the kilowatts. The more kw’s a generator has the more output power it provides.
Stationery generators and the electrical services for the installation of the generator can get extremely expensive. Therefore, I always recommend the portable generator setup. But as the customer, you have to make the best decision for yourself and your family. Whichever choice you make when it comes to emergency backup power, The Dorky Electrician, LLC is here to help.
