Loyal Lab Electric & Generators is based in Somersworth. Not serving Somersworth from somewhere else, not a franchise with a local phone number. Our shop is at 350 NH-108 and our trucks leave from here every morning.
That matters because response times are fast, we know the type of homes in this area well, and when something goes wrong on a job we are never far away. Somersworth has a mix of older mill-era homes and newer construction that each come with their own electrical challenges, and our electricians have worked on both.
We are the Seacoast’s authorized Generac dealer for whole-home standby generator installations. We also handle panel upgrades, EV charger setups, troubleshooting, and everything in between. Every job comes with upfront flat-rate pricing and a written scope of work before we start.
From routine repairs to full generator installations, here is what we handle for Somersworth homeowners.
Because we are based in Somersworth, we can usually get to you faster than anyone else in the area. If we spot something that needs attention during the visit, we will tell you upfront with clear options and pricing before any additional work begins. Learn more about our panel upgrade, generator installation, and EV charger services.
Every job at Loyal Lab is done by a licensed electrician. Not an apprentice working unsupervised, not a handyman with a multimeter. Our field team holds NH and Maine credentials and works under a master electrician license on every project we take on.
We also price every job upfront before work begins. You see the number, you approve it, and that is what you pay. No hourly billing, no surprises at the end of the visit.
Here is what sets us apart:
These are the issues we run into most often on service calls in Somersworth. If any of them sound familiar, give us a call.
Aging fuse boxes and undersized panels are everywhere in Somersworth, especially in the older neighborhoods near the mill district. A 60-amp or 100-amp panel that was installed decades ago was not built for EV chargers, heat pumps, or a home office. We upgrade them to 200 amps regularly and can usually complete the job in a single day.
Federal Pacific and Zinsco panels have a documented history of failing to trip during an overload. If your home still has one, that is a fire risk that does not get better with time. Replacement is the only real fix.
Knob and tube wiring cannot be extended, cannot support modern loads, and most insurance carriers will not cover a home that still has it active. Somersworth has a significant number of homes built before World War II where we find it still in use.
Breakers tripping repeatedly is not a nuisance problem. It usually means something is pulling more current than the circuit was designed to handle, or there is a wiring issue that needs to be traced. We find the actual cause rather than just resetting and moving on.
Ungrounded outlets and missing GFCI protection are code violations that show up in kitchens, bathrooms, and garages throughout older Somersworth homes. Not every problem needs a full rewire to fix.
Insufficient capacity for modern demands is increasingly common as homeowners add EV chargers and heat pumps without checking whether their panel can handle the load. We assess before we install so nothing gets oversized or undersized.
Loyal Lab Electric & Generators is based in Somersworth by choice. When it came time to find a location, 350 NH-108 made sense. Central to the Seacoast, easy access to Dover, Rochester, and Portsmouth, and close enough to the Maine border that we can serve Kittery and Berwick without a long drive. We share Barclay Square with Earth Eagle Tavern, one of the better spots in the area for a cold beer after a long day. They also have a location in Portsmouth, which tells you something about the kind of businesses that call Somersworth home.
The name comes from Rusty, a yellow lab who has been around since the beginning. The Rusty Fund donates $10 from every completed job and $100 from every generator installation to local dog rescues, including the Pope Memorial Humane Society in Dover. It is a small thing that adds up over time, and it reflects how we think about doing business here.
Somersworth is not a stepping stone. It is where we work, where our trucks are parked, and where we plan to stay.
Fast. Our shop is at 350 NH-108 so we are already in Somersworth when your call comes in. Most service calls are scheduled same-day or next-day and for emergencies we prioritize getting there as quickly as possible.
Yes. Somersworth is our home base and we serve the surrounding area including Dover, Rochester, Portsmouth, Rollinsford, Milton, Barrington, and across the Maine border into Berwick and South Berwick.
Most panel upgrades run between $1,500 and $4,500 depending on the size of the panel, the condition of the existing service entrance, and whether permits and inspections are required. We quote every job upfront before any work begins.
Yes. Loyal Lab Electric & Generators holds NH Master Electrician License number 13956 and carries full liability insurance and workers compensation coverage. We pull all required permits and schedule inspections for every job that requires them.
We offer free estimates for larger projects like panel upgrades, generator installations, and EV charger setups. For service calls and troubleshooting, there is a service call fee but any work required beyond that will be quoted for free before any repairs begin
Yes, and we do it regularly. Somersworth has a lot of older housing stock, particularly near the mill district, where we find fuse boxes, knob and tube wiring, and ungrounded outlets. We handle all of it.
We are an authorized Generac dealer and install Generac whole-home standby generators. We also provide ongoing maintenance and service for existing Generac generators. Rochester and the surrounding area experience enough winter storm outages that a standby generator is one of the best investments you can make for your home
The Rusty Fund is our charitable initiative supporting local dog rescues, including the Pope Memorial Humane Society in Dover. We donate $10 from every completed job and $100 from every generator installation. It is named after Rusty, the yellow lab who inspired everything Loyal Lab stands for.
