Sampson Electric, LLC was founded in 2011 by Kevin Sampson, a licensed electrician with more than 20 years of experience who identified a specific gap in the electrical trade: large contractors frequently turned away the small jobs — flickering lights, single outlet repairs, minor upgrades — that homeowners still urgently needed addressed. Sampson built the company around saying yes to those requests, and “No Job Is Too Small” remains the company’s guiding motto even as it has grown into a team of more than 20 professionals handling large commercial and industrial projects alongside routine residential work.
Based in North Branford and serving New Haven, Branford, Wallingford, Hamden, West Haven, and Bridgeport, the company has completed more than 1,000 projects across Connecticut and holds a 5-star rating across 250 verified customer reviews. Sampson Electric operates on a clear service standard: complimentary estimates within 48 hours and project mobilization within 7 days of estimate acceptance, with the company’s stated philosophy being to under-promise and over-deliver on every job.
Residential services cover wiring, service panel upgrades, safety inspections, generator installation, security systems, home theater wiring, and landscape and outdoor lighting. Commercial and industrial capabilities are more extensive than most residential-focused electricians offer — office fit-outs, retail solutions, bucket truck services for hard-to-reach lighting installations, cell tower and wireless infrastructure work, and parking lot and exterior building lighting maintenance, positioning Sampson Electric to serve facility managers and property developers alongside individual homeowners.
Electrical repair is handled with a diagnostic-first approach — rather than treating only the visible symptom of a problem, technicians are trained to identify root causes, which matters for issues like repeatedly tripping breakers, buzzing sounds from an electrical panel, or flickering lights that can indicate underlying hazards rather than simple nuisances. The company maintains both a main line and a dedicated emergency line for after-hours electrical issues.
For homeowners, businesses, and general contractors in the greater New Haven area looking for a licensed electrical contractor with 250+ verified 5-star reviews and a service commitment built around responsiveness regardless of project size, Sampson Electric offers a well-documented track record spanning residential, commercial, and industrial electrical work.
