Licensed Electrician in Freeport, NY
Based in neighboring East Rockaway, Viking Electric & Design delivers code-compliant residential and commercial electrical work across Freeport — from 200-amp service upgrades and Level 2 EV chargers to standby generator transfer switches.
Electrical Contracting Tailored to Freeport Properties
Unlike almost every other community on Long Island, the Incorporated Village of Freeport operates its own municipal utility—Freeport Electric—alongside its own Village Building Department. Viking Electric & Design understands the specific meter pan specifications, disconnect scheduling, and inspection procedures required for Freeport properties.
Whether you own a stately colonial in NorthWest Freeport with original 100-amp service and cloth wiring, a canal-front home south of Atlantic Avenue needing a coastal-rated 200-amp panel and standby generator transfer switch, or a commercial space near Sunrise Highway or the Nautical Mile, we deliver clean, code-compliant electrical work built to last.
Local Housing Stock Profile
Historic turn-of-the-century victorians and colonials in North/West Freeport, canal-front homes with bulkheads and boat lifts in South Freeport and along the Nautical Mile, and commercial/marine businesses.

Freeport Electrical Questions
- Do you coordinate service upgrades with Freeport Electric instead of PSEG?
- Yes. Because the Village of Freeport runs its own municipal utility (Freeport Electric), service disconnects, meter pulls, and reconnects are coordinated directly with Freeport Electric and the Village Building Department.
- Can you install a generator transfer switch for a canal-front home in Freeport?
- Yes. We install both automatic transfer switches for standby generators and 50-amp weatherproof portable generator inlets with UL-listed interlocks, using corrosion-resistant enclosures suited for South Freeport canals.
- Do you wire boat lifts and dockside power pedestals in Freeport?
- Yes. We install NEC Article 555 / 682 ground-fault protected marine and dockside electrical circuits using corrosion-resistant conduit and weatherproof hardware.
