Licensed Electrical Work in Toms River, New Jersey

Toms River is the largest municipality we serve and the Ocean County seat, and it is really two service areas in one. Most of the township sits on the mainland, but Toms River also owns a stretch of the Barnegat Peninsula, including Ortley Beach, Normandy Beach, Chadwick Beach, Silver Beach, and the Ocean Beach and Dover Beaches sections. Those two halves are not even connected to each other, and the electrical work they need is not the same.

On the barrier island side, Hurricane Sandy is still driving the work. Elevated homes mean relocated panels, relocated meters, and rewired service entrances. On the mainland, Silverton and the downtown area saw their worst flooding on record from Barnegat Bay surge, and plenty of those homes still run original panels that were never meant to carry a modern load. Andy handles both, pulls the permit through the Toms River construction office, and meets the electrical subcode official himself.

About Toms River, NJ

Toms River is a township in Ocean County and the county seat, with roughly 95,000 residents across the mainland and its barrier island sections. A quick note that trips people up: a Toms River mailing address does not always mean Toms River Township. South Toms River, Beachwood, and Pine Beach are separate boroughs with their own construction offices. The township was called Dover Township until a 2006 referendum, so older permits and records may still say Dover.
