Their electricians were courteous, respectful, and extremely knowledgeable of old homes. If any problems arose, they were quick to respond and relay the information to us. They were prompt and always kept us informed of the project. We would highly recommend Tighe Electrical. **★★★★★ — Dennis Wood, Jan. 2017** > They are the best company around.

Excellent company **★★★★★ — sbreslin12, Sept. 2016** > What a positive experience. My call was returned within the hour and two team members where out to my home to complete the work that day! They were professional and courteous. After explaining what needed to be done , they completed the job in a timely and reasonable($) manner. **★★★★★ — celeste0414, Aug. 2016** > Tighe Electrical is a top notch company. My mother, an 86 year old senior citizen needed a new panel, breakers, grounding and an outside outlet. The first company we called gave an outlandish estimate and insisted on full payment ready the day of work, cash, credit card or cashiers check only. Feeling as if we were being taken advantage of, I spoke with my brother for guidance. Based on a recommendation from my brother's friend I called Tighe Electrical, and thank goodness I did. Aiden was more than helpful and made it over that Friday evening to assess the situation. He was professional, friendly, and trust worthy. His estimate was fair and his payment terms flexible. Needless to say we went with Tighe. We were not disappointed as Aiden sent a friendly and professional two person team to do the work the following Monday. The two gentleman who came (one was named George) were on time, polite, competent and thorough. They answered all of our questions and reviewed the work they had done with us. The panel looks great, the outside outlet is a welcome addition, and I can rest easy knowing my mother's home is properly grounded now. I give Tighe Electrical my highest recommendation! **★★★★★ — juliewhyland, Aug. 2016** > They answered my call on the first try and came later that day. They solved my electrical issue for a fair price. **★★★★★ — O\`Kane Construction INC, Aug. 2016** > We worked closely with Tighe electrical over the years on many projects. Aiden and his team are very reliable, professional and courteous. Clients are always pleased with the work that they complete. We will be working with Tighe Electrical on future projects and would recommend them to anyone in search of a qualified electrician. ## Selected projects - [Generator Install Radnor](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/generator-install-radnor-pj-vj~746885) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Kitchen renovation Devon](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kitchen-renovation-devon-pj-vj~746890) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Bryn Mawr Kitchen, Family Room and Dining area Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bryn-mawr-kitchen-family-room-and-dining-area-remodel-pj-vj~736214) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [Master Bedroom Lighting and Power](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/master-bedroom-lighting-and-power-pj-vj~736119) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - Description: This master bedroom had lighting installed in the crown molding for that warm glow, with low voltage recessed lighting around perimeter , all black outlets and switches with rubbed bronze cover plates and a hanging chandelier to give it the wow factor and create a feeling of grandeur. - [Various Rough-in stages](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/various-rough-in-stages-pj-vj~736320) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 17 - [Manual generator hook-up panel installations](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/manual-generator-hook-up-panel-installations-pj-vj~746894) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Panel Installations](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/panel-installations-pj-vj~736231) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - [Electric Under floor heating cables](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/electric-under-floor-heating-cables-pj-vj~736312) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 - [Various Bathrooms: Lighting](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/various-bathrooms-lighting-pj-vj~736305) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Farmhouse Kitchen Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/farmhouse-kitchen-remodel-pj-vj~736297) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Kitchen Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kitchen-remodel-pj-vj~736290) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Wet Bar Electric and Lighting](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/wet-bar-electric-and-lighting-pj-vj~736287) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Electric Car Charger Installations](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/electric-car-charger-installations-pj-vj~736285) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Random Photos](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/random-photos-pj-vj~736274) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Under ground service installed](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/under-ground-service-installed-pj-vj~736265) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 11 - [Basement Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/basement-remodel-pj-vj~736218) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [livingroom Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/livingroom-remodel-pj-vj~736206) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Bathroom Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bathroom-remodel-pj-vj~736154) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Master Bathroom Lighting and Power](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/master-bathroom-lighting-and-power-pj-vj~736142) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 [See all 19 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/electricians/tighe-electrical-llc-pfvwus-pf~152017987) ## Ideabooks - [Wish List](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/124892409/list/wish-list) — 5 ideas - [Pro Minute Video](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/71108049/list/pro-minute-video) — 22 ideas - [Stair Case Foyers](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/64676098/list/stair-case-foyers) — 1 idea - [Luxury Home Exteriors](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/64676821/list/luxury-home-exteriors) — 1 idea [See all 4 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/tigheelectrical) ## Community Q&A **Q: 12A vacuum cleaner causes 15A AFCI to trip** *(in Other)* Whenever I try to use my 12A vacuum cleaner, it causes the 15A AFCI to trip. I understand that happens when the AFCI senses arcing. Will the AFCI still trip if it was a 20A instead? Thank you in advance. A: You can try contacting the manufacture of the vacuum and getting there input on it, apart from that, you could try another AFCI breaker to see if it persists or try your vacuum on another AFCI circuit at a friends house to see if it happens there. It's all investigative work when it comes to AFCI tripping best to get an electrician with experience in the matter to investigate it further. Best of luck. **Q: Electrical dilemma** *(in Design Dilemma)* I bought my first home. On the inspection report it showed that the two outlets in the kitchen were not gfi's. I called a local electrician that had good reviews. I sent him the inspection report and he came to fix the problem with his partner. He told me I could switch the receptacles or the breakers switches themselves to gfi's. He said both did the same but the breaker was cheaper. So I had him change the breaker pieces. After that I noticed that if i use the garbage disposal switch the dishwasher breaker trips. Both are on the same receptacle were they are plugged into under the sink but they are wired to different breakers so I assume they are on different circuits. The switch for the disposal is on the wall receptacle that shares outlet plugs but those are on the breaker that trips along with dishwasher. So basically everytime I use the disposal that it connected to breaker 10.. It trips breaker 12. They both use the same receptacles but are on different breakers. I tested a different appliance on breaker 10.. And same thing happens..so its not an appliance issue. Was the gfi breakers installed wrong; should it have been installed on the wall receptacle instead; or is it a faulty gfi. I don't see a reset for the gfi breaker just a test button A: I hope you have had the issue solved, if not it sounds like you have a shared neutral between the two circuits (or both neutrals are connected in the kitchen), the GFCI measures the number of electrons out and wants to see the same back, a shared neutral would upset this balance and constantly trip the GFCI. This is an easy fix for an experienced electrician. **Q: Electrical outlets for basement** *(in Design Dilemma)* We are planning a basement remodel and will install engineered hardwood over concrete. The furniture arrangement will be floating -- away from walls. What is the best way to handle providing electrical outlets for table/floor lamps located away from walls? Not sure how floor outlets are handled in basements. Thanks. A: I would check the water table, if there is any chance of water coming up thru your floor it would not be worth the risk to install these in the basement concrete as you will have to cut into it install wiring and boxes. If you are safe of ground water your contractor can easily track the concrete for such an install. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-08-25.*
