Your local electrician
Braselton homes fall into two broad groups, and each keeps our electricians busy in different ways. On the rural acreage side of town, many properties in the 30517 area were wired decades ago for far lighter loads than today's households draw. These older homes may still have undersized panels, two-prong ungrounded outlets, or aluminum branch wiring, and any of those can show up as warm switch plates, flickering lights, or breakers that trip when the microwave and space heater run at the same time. A safety inspection is the right first step before adding new circuits to a home like this.
The newer master-planned side of Braselton, including Chateau Elan and Traditions of Braselton, brings the opposite problem: solid wiring but growing demand. Families here are adding Level 2 EV chargers, hot tubs, finished basements, and standby generators, and a builder-grade panel can run out of spare capacity fast. Because the town straddles Jackson, Barrow, Gwinnett, and Hall counties, growth along the I-85 corridor shows no sign of slowing, and load calculations matter more every year. Kalahari Electrical Services handles both ends of that spectrum, from correcting aging farmhouse circuits to sizing a 200-amp service for a new garage charger.
What we do in Braselton
Kalahari Electrical Services focuses on the upgrades Braselton homeowners need most: whole-home standby generators for reliable backup during Georgia's severe storm season, Level 2 EV charger installations with dedicated 240V circuits, electrical panel upgrades to 200-amp service, and whole-home surge protection to guard against lightning damage. Whether your home is in Woodland Creek or Liberty Crossing, we handle permitting, installation, and inspection so the job is done safely and to code.
Our Braselton electricians are experienced with both older rural properties and newer construction, so we know how to match the right solution to your home's wiring and panel capacity. From a simple circuit repair to a full panel replacement, every project is completed to current Georgia code and backed by our 100% satisfaction guarantee.

Testimonials
Here’s what customers have to say about our electrical services.
We received a bad inspection report for our panel when we were trying to sell our home. Kalahari came in and went over the report. We looked over and signed a moderately priced quote. Then they set off to do the work to tidy up the panel a bit and swap out breakers. Once into it they decided they would rewire the whole thing. They did not charge extra and were still in and out fast.
– Michael C.Excellent customer service is hard to find these days; however, Jan has it down to an art form. I had company in from out of town during the 105 degree days and he came out the same day, stayed until midnight to get it fixed, and he was leaving for vacation the next day. I will never use another electrician.
– Satisfied CustomerI have used them many times and they are great. Reliable, knowledgeable, courteous and easy to work with. They are my go-to electricians. Always available and always there when you are counting on them.

Kalahari Electrical Services covers the full range of residential work Braselton homes call for: standby generator installation, Level 2 EV charger circuits, 200-amp panel upgrades, whole-home surge protection, lighting, outlet and switch replacement, rewiring, safety inspections, and 24/7 emergency repairs. We work in the master-planned communities such as Chateau Elan and Traditions of Braselton as well as the rural properties surrounding town, so the solution matches your home's age and wiring.
It depends on the age of the home. Older rural properties around Braselton may still have undersized panels, ungrounded two-prong outlets, or aluminum branch wiring, which show up as tripped breakers, flickering lights, or warm outlets. In newer communities like Chateau Elan and Reunion, the wiring is usually sound but panel capacity runs out as families add EV chargers, hot tubs, and generators. Whole-home surge protection is a frequent request all over town because Georgia's lightning season is hard on electronics.
Yes. Kalahari Electrical Services holds Georgia electrical contractor license EN213186 and is fully insured for every job we perform in Braselton. We are family-owned and have served metro Atlanta since 2001. Every technician who comes to your home is background-checked, our work is backed by a satisfaction guarantee, and our track record shows in a 4.9-star Google rating and an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau.
Yes, we manage permits for our Braselton customers. Properties inside Braselton's corporate limits get their electrical permits from the Town of Braselton Building Department no matter which of the four counties (Jackson, Hall, Gwinnett, or Barrow) the lot sits in. Applications, fees, and inspection scheduling all run through the Town's CityView Portal at braseltonga.cityviewportal.com. We file the paperwork and coordinate the inspection so your panel upgrade, EV charger, or generator is fully documented.
Yes, we offer emergency and same-day electrical service to Braselton homeowners. We understand that electrical emergencies don't wait for business hours, so you can reach us at 678-665-2309 when you need urgent help. For widespread power outages, we also recommend contacting your utility's outage line: Jackson EMC at 1-800-462-3679, Georgia Power at 1-888-891-0938, or Walton EMC at 770-267-2505, since Braselton is served by multiple utility providers depending on your exact address.
Pricing depends on the scope of the work, the condition of your existing panel and wiring, the equipment involved, and whether the job needs a permit through the Town of Braselton Building Department. Utility rebates for Level 2 EV chargers can also change your net cost depending on which provider serves your address. Call us at 678-665-2309 and we will look at your specific situation and give you an upfront price before any work begins.
In most cases, yes. Panel upgrades, standby generators, and new 240V circuits for EV chargers generally require an electrical permit from the Town of Braselton Building Department, which serves all properties inside town limits through its online CityView Portal. Also call Georgia 811 at least three business days before any digging, such as trenching for a generator pad or outdoor lighting. Kalahari Electrical handles the permit filing and inspection scheduling as part of the job.
Older homes around Braselton, especially rural properties wired decades ago, may have panels sized for a fraction of today's electrical load. We recommend an electrical safety inspection that reviews panel capacity, grounding, outlet condition, and the state of the branch wiring. Two-prong outlets and aluminum branch circuits are worth flagging early because they may limit what you can safely add later, from a home office circuit to a Level 2 EV charger.
