Your local electrician
Stone Mountain homes put real demands on their electrical systems. The city sits in eastern DeKalb County, and its housing runs from the historic cottages and bungalows of the downtown Village along Main Street to brick ranches and split-levels from the 1960s and 70s off Memorial Drive and Rockbridge Road, plus newer subdivisions toward Smoke Rise and Hugh Howell Road. Each era brings its own electrical concerns.
In the oldest Village homes, we still find cloth-insulated branch wiring and two-prong ungrounded outlets that were never designed for modern loads. Mid-century houses in neighborhoods like Indian Creek, Parkview, and Summerhill may have aluminum branch wiring and 60 or 100 amp panels that run out of capacity fast once you add central air, a home office, or a Level 2 EV charger. Newer homes usually have sound wiring but often need dedicated circuits for EV charging, kitchen remodels, or additions.
The calls we get most from Stone Mountain are breakers that trip when the AC kicks on, lights that flicker or dim, outlets that no longer grip a plug, and panels with no room for new circuits. Kalahari Electrical Services diagnoses the cause, explains your options in plain language, and brings the work up to current code with DeKalb County permits and inspections handled for you.

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.

The most frequent calls we get in Stone Mountain reflect the age of its housing. Historic Village homes may still have knob-and-tube or cloth-insulated wiring and ungrounded two-prong outlets. Ranch and split-level houses from the 1950s through the 1970s often have 60 or 100 amp panels that cannot keep up with modern loads, and homes from that era may contain aluminum branch wiring. Frequent breaker trips, flickering lights, and too few outlets round out the list.
Yes. Kalahari Electrical Services is a licensed and insured Georgia electrical contractor, license EN213186, and we have been family-owned since 2001. Every technician is background-checked, and our work is backed by a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Stone Mountain homeowners can also check our track record for themselves: we hold a 4.9-star Google rating and an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau.
Yes. For Stone Mountain properties, residential electrical permits are issued and inspected by the DeKalb County Department of Planning and Sustainability, Permit and Plan Review Division, not by the City of Stone Mountain. Applications go through DeKalb County's online Accela Citizen Access portal, and inspections are scheduled after the work is complete. We pull the permit, meet the inspector, and make sure the finished work complies with the 2023 National Electrical Code now adopted in Georgia.
Yes, we offer emergency and same-day electrical service for Stone Mountain residents. Electrical emergencies such as sparking outlets, burning smells, tripped main breakers, or a complete loss of power in your home should never wait. Give us a call at 678-665-2309 and we will work to get a technician to your Stone Mountain home as quickly as possible. If your issue involves a utility outage rather than a problem inside your home, you can also contact Georgia Power at 1-888-660-5890 to report the outage while we address any internal electrical concerns.
The cost of electrical work in Stone Mountain depends on several factors specific to your home and project. These include:
We put the full scope of work in writing so you know exactly what to expect before any work begins. It is also worth noting that Stone Mountain residents served by Georgia Power may qualify for a rebate on the purchase and installation of a new Level 2 EV charger, which can help offset upgrade costs. Call us at 678-665-2309 to schedule your estimate.
Not automatically, but it is worth an inspection. Stone Mountain homes from that era may have aluminum branch wiring, which can loosen at connections over time, and panels sized for far smaller electrical loads than households use today. Warning signs include warm outlets or switch plates, frequent breaker trips, and flickering lights. An electrical safety inspection will tell you whether your system needs simple repairs, targeted upgrades, or a full rewire, and we explain the findings in plain language.
In most cases, yes. Panel upgrades, new circuits, rewiring, and EV charger installations in Stone Mountain generally require a permit from DeKalb County, which handles residential electrical permitting for the city. Small like-for-like repairs may not, but it is best to confirm by address with the county's Permit and Plan Review Division. Kalahari Electrical Services files the application through the Accela Citizen Access portal and coordinates the inspection, so the paperwork never lands on you.
