Licensed Electrician in Lynbrook, NY
Based in neighboring East Rockaway, Viking Electric & Design delivers code-compliant residential and commercial electrical work across Lynbrook — from 200-amp service upgrades and Level 2 EV chargers to standby generator transfer switches.
Electrical Contracting Tailored to Lynbrook Properties
Bordering East Rockaway directly to the north, the Incorporated Village of Lynbrook is minutes from our shop. Viking Electric & Design serves homeowners and commercial tenants throughout Lynbrook—from pre-war colonials and tudors off Hempstead Avenue and Peninsula Boulevard to retail and office spaces near the Broadway LIRR station.
Lynbrook’s older housing stock frequently features original armored BX cable, ungrounded bedroom receptacles, detached garages fed by undersized underground conduits, and 100-amp service entrances that struggle when modern central A/C or EV charging is added. We modernize these systems while respecting traditional plaster walls and architectural woodwork.

Lynbrook Electrical Questions
- Does the Village of Lynbrook require its own electrical permit?
- Yes. Properties within the Incorporated Village of Lynbrook are permitted through the Lynbrook Building Department rather than the Town of Hempstead. We manage all Village filings and underwriter inspections.
- Can you run 240V power to a detached garage in Lynbrook for an EV charger?
- Yes. We trench code-compliant PVC or rigid conduit from your house panel to your detached garage to install a 60A or 100A garage subpanel and hardwired Level 2 charger.
- Can you install recessed lighting in older Lynbrook homes with plaster ceilings?
- Yes. We use precision hole saws and low-dust fishing techniques to install IC-rated LED recessed lighting in plaster-and-lath ceilings with minimal patching.
