Got any Questions?
Our electrical service areas in Atlanta all sit a short drive from our base by the I-85 and GA-400 interchange. Cam’s Electric has served Atlanta since 2023, and Cam has been in the trade since 2019. We work in four areas: intown Atlanta, Buckhead, Brookhaven and North Druid Hills. Each one has its own kind of house, and that’s what decides the kind of electrical trouble we see there.
Wherever you are in those four, the deal’s the same. You get a free estimate, a licensed and insured electrician and a response within 24 hours. One customer wrote that we “showed up when they said they would,” and that’s the standard we hold ourselves to.
Atlanta, Our Home Base
Some of the oldest houses in the city are a few minutes from our base. Virginia-Highland’s Craftsman bungalows went up between 1909 and 1926, and Ansley Park, just west of Piedmont Park, between 1905 and 1930. That’s the knob and tube era, when wiring ran on porcelain knobs with no ground wire. It wasn’t built for the outlets and appliances a family uses now. If your outlets only take two prongs, or the lights dim hard when the AC starts, the wiring is showing its age. Our electrical troubleshooting maps what’s original and what’s been added, so you know what you have before anyone opens a wall. In a house with plaster walls, we’ll work new wire through carefully to keep the patching small.
Closer to home, we work in Morningside/Lenox Park, Piedmont Heights and Lindridge/Martin Manor. Around our own ZIP code, 30324, there are a lot of newer condos and apartments, and the usual call there is different. It’s an EV charger in a shared garage, or a panel that’s out of room. For those jobs we start with your building’s rules and your unit’s panel, because both decide what can go in. Anywhere in Atlanta, you’ll hear back from us within 24 hours. Storms are the other reason people call. Atlanta’s trees drop limbs on power lines. When one damages the mast or the meter box on your house, we make that repair before Georgia Power can reconnect you.
Buckhead, Pine Hills and Chastain Park
Buckhead is right next door to us, so it’s an easy trip to Lenox Square and the neighborhoods around it. We work in Tuxedo Park, Collier Hills and Peachtree Battle, along with Pine Hills and Chastain Park. Bigger Buckhead homes often run more than one AC system, a pool and a lot of outdoor lighting, and that’s a heavy load. When breakers start tripping in summer, we’ll run a load calculation before we recommend a service upgrade or anything else.
Remodels are the other big one here. Opening up a floor plan or adding on usually means the original panel has no space left for new circuits. Our electrical installation service adds the circuits and the panel space the new rooms need. We’ll handle the permit too. Pine Hills sits partly in Fulton County and partly in DeKalb County, so there we check your address first.
Brookhaven
Brookhaven is changing one lot at a time. In Drew Valley and Skyland Park, 1940s and 1950s ranches and cottages sit next to the new houses replacing them. Brookhaven Fields has single-family homes on narrow lots. If you’re keeping an original ranch, it’ll likely need more panel space before it can take a heat pump or a Level 2 charger. An electrical panel upgrade gives it that room.
If you’re tearing down and rebuilding, your builder needs temporary power on the lot before the new house has any, and we set that up too. We work all over Brookhaven, including the streets around Murphey Candler Park on W Nancy Creek Drive. Brookhaven has been its own city since 2012, so work here needs City of Brookhaven permits, and we pull them so you don’t have to.
North Druid Hills
LaVista Road takes us east from our base into North Druid Hills. We work in Merry Hills, Briarcliff Heights and Fama Pines, and around W. D. Thomson Park on Mason Mill Road. Fama Pines went up in the 1950s, and a house wired back then wasn’t set up for what a family plugs in now. If you’re adding circuits to one, the panel often needs room first, and we’ll tell you that before the job starts.
North Druid Hills is unincorporated DeKalb County, so permits here go through the county and not a city. A few nearby streets were pulled into Brookhaven over the years. We’ll confirm which side of the line you’re on before any paperwork goes in, so your job doesn’t stall.
Not Sure We Come to You? Just Ask
If you’re near the edge of one of these areas, call (770) 262-4949 with your address and we’ll tell you right away. You can also send a photo of the panel or the problem, and we’ll tell you what we see. For an emergency electrician, we take calls 24 hours a day, Monday through Saturday.
However you reach Cam’s Electric, your local electrical contractor, the estimate’s free. Every job comes with our satisfaction guarantee. If something isn’t right when we’re done, call and tell us.
Did you know?
Nearly half of Atlanta sits under its own trees. The city’s canopy measured 45.7% in 2023, so it’s common to see power lines running under big branches here. When Helene’s remnants hit on September 27, 2024, more than 1,500 trees ended up on lines across metro Atlanta.
Questions & Answers
Electrical Service Areas in Atlanta FAQs
Where we work, how soon you’ll hear from us and what’s different about each area.
Yes. Buckhead is a part of the City of Atlanta, so permits there come from the city. Cam’s Electric works all over Buckhead, including Pine Hills, Chastain Park, Tuxedo Park, Collier Hills and Peachtree Battle.
Electrical work in Brookhaven needs City of Brookhaven permits. North Druid Hills is unincorporated, so permits there go through DeKalb County. You don’t have to sort that out yourself. Give us your address and we’ll file with the right office.
Yes. Cam’s Electric is based a short drive from Piedmont Park. We work in the neighborhoods around it, including Ansley Park, Virginia-Highland, Piedmont Heights, Morningside/Lenox Park and Lindridge/Martin Manor.
Cam’s Electric does. We work on the Brookhaven streets around Murphey Candler Park, along with Drew Valley, Skyland Park and Brookhaven Fields. A lot of those houses are 1940s and 1950s ranches, so making room in the panel is a common job there.
Yes. We work around W.D. Thomson Park on Mason Mill Road and in Merry Hills, Briarcliff Heights and Fama Pines. It’s a quick trip east on LaVista Road from our base.
The Chastain Park neighborhood is in Buckhead, inside the City of Atlanta and Fulton County, and we work there. Its neighborhood association also covers some streets in Sandy Springs, which is outside our area. If you’re near the line, call (770) 262-4949 with your address and we’ll tell you.
No. North Druid Hills is its own community in DeKalb County. Druid Hills is a separate, older neighborhood, and part of it is inside the City of Atlanta. Cam’s Electric works in both.
You’ll hear back from us within 24 hours, anywhere in our area. Buckhead is close, since Lenox Square is a short drive from our base. For emergencies, we take calls 24 hours a day, Monday through Saturday.
Nearly half the city sits under tree canopy, and a lot of neighborhood power lines run right under those branches. When a storm brings limbs down, they land on the lines. If a limb also damages the mast or the meter box on your house, an electrician has to repair that before Georgia Power can reconnect you. Cam’s Electric does that work.
There are three main kinds. Intown Atlanta has a lot of prewar houses, and Brookhaven and North Druid Hills have 1950s and 1960s ranches. Around our base, it’s newer condos and townhomes. The early houses tend to need old wiring replaced, and the condos tend to need EV charging figured out.
