Expert electrical installation services for The Bronx homes and businesses
Electrical installation in Bronx covers everything from panel upgrades and new circuit runs to lighting design, smart home wiring, and complete electrical system modernization. Lion Construction Management coordinates licensed electricians for all electrical scope — service upgrades, sub-panel installations, dedicated appliance circuits, recessed and decorative lighting, outlet and switch installations, and low-voltage wiring for data, audio, and home automation. All work is permitted and inspected per NYC DOB requirements.
Bronx renovation permits follow standard NYC DOB filing procedures. Many Bronx properties — particularly the detached homes in Riverdale, Country Club, and Throgs Neck — offer renovation possibilities that denser boroughs don't: additions, garage conversions, basement finishing, and significant exterior modifications. Riverdale has a special natural area district (SNAD) overlay that requires Department of City Planning review for any work affecting steep slopes or natural features. City Island is within a Special District that has its own guidelines. Lion Construction Management is experienced with the Bronx's specific zoning overlays and filing requirements across all neighborhoods.

Mechanical systems in Bronx homes — especially those built before 1960 — frequently need comprehensive upgrades. Many Riverdale, Pelham Bay, and Morris Park homes still operate on original electrical panels, galvanized water supply lines, and oil-fired boilers. Lion Construction Management coordinates licensed contractors to assess your existing systems, design modern replacements, file DOB permits, and execute the work efficiently. The Bronx's larger lot sizes and accessible building footprints make mechanical upgrades more efficient than in denser boroughs. We often upgrade electrical, plumbing, and HVAC simultaneously during gut renovations — coordinating trades to minimize wall openings and maximize efficiency.
If your The Bronx home has a 60-amp or 100-amp panel, a panel upgrade to 200 amps is typically recommended — especially if you're renovating, adding appliances, or installing central AC or an EV charger. Older pre-war apartments, single-family homes, multi-family buildings, and waterfront properties often have undersized panels that can't safely support modern electrical loads.
A 200-amp panel upgrade in The Bronx typically costs $3,000–$6,000 including permits and inspection. Full apartment or home rewiring ranges from $8,000–$25,000+ depending on size and complexity. We provide detailed estimates after assessing your existing electrical system.
