Dependable Electric Services was founded in 2014 by Justin Bocock and David Nash, two high school friends who wanted to bring a more personal approach to electrical work.

We serve clients throughout Buford from our home base in Lawrenceville, covering both residential and commercial properties.
We operate under the identity of Your Family’s Electrician because the person you let into your home should be someone you can trust. That means honest assessments, no pressure toward unnecessary work, and a job site left cleaner than we found it.

What Sets Our Service Apart
We explain what we find in plain language, not jargon, so you can make decisions that fit your property and your budget. Our technicians wear protective shoe covers, use drop cloths throughout the job, and complete a full cleanup before leaving. That’s a standard our clients mention consistently in their feedback, and it’s one we hold on every visit.
We also reach out proactively with project updates rather than waiting for you to ask. Transparent pricing means no hidden costs or surprise additions at the end of the job. Every repair and installation is built to last, not patched together with temporary fixes.
Electrical Modernization for Buford Properties
Older homes across Buford often carry electrical systems that weren’t designed for today’s appliance loads. We address that with three core modernization services.
- Electrical panel replacement: We upgrade your home’s power distribution system to handle modern demand, including a full circuit inspection to confirm every room receives a steady, reliable supply. This helps prevent frequent breaker trips and reduces the fire risk that can come with an overtaxed panel.
- Whole-house rewiring: We replace outdated or damaged wiring with current industry-standard materials, navigating your home’s structure to minimize disruption while helping ensure every outlet and switch is properly grounded.
- Level 2 EV charger installation: We evaluate your current electrical load to confirm your panel can safely support a Level 2 charger, then complete a clean installation that integrates with your existing garage or outdoor setup.
Whole-Home Safety Inspections Checked Against Gwinnett County Codes
Our safety inspections examine every outlet, switch, and breaker in your home against current Georgia and Gwinnett County building codes. You receive a detailed findings report so you can prioritize repairs based on real data, not guesswork. For properties in the portion of Buford that falls within Gwinnett County, this code-specific inspection gives you a concrete benchmark rather than a general safety checklist.
Beyond the inspection itself, we install two additional layers of protection for your home:
- Whole-house surge protection: Hardwired directly into your main panel, these systems help shield your electronics and appliances from power spikes caused by lightning strikes and grid fluctuations alike.
- Interconnected smoke and carbon monoxide detectors: We determine the most effective placement based on national safety standards and your home’s layout. When one alarm activates, every unit in the home sounds, helping maximize your response time.
Lighting Design & Fixture Installation
Good lighting does more than illuminate a room. We design and install interior configurations that eliminate shadows, highlight architectural features, and use energy-efficient fixtures that can reduce utility costs without compromising brightness or style.
For exterior protection, we integrate hardwired security and flood lighting with motion-activated placement at high-priority areas around your property. Because these systems are hardwired rather than battery-powered, they can stay operational during storms and power fluctuations. We also handle the assembly and mounting of ceiling fans and complex fixtures, confirming secure anchoring, correct wiring, and quiet, balanced operation before the job is closed.
Generator Installation & Emergency Electrical Repair in Buford
When the power goes out or an electrical problem demands immediate attention, response time matters. As an electrical contractor serving Buford, we coordinate dispatch to reach your property quickly for issues like sparking outlets or a complete loss of power.
For backup power, we can help you select a standby generator sized to your property’s specific needs, whether that means powering the entire home or protecting essential circuits. We perform regular testing to confirm readiness before the grid goes down. For recurring problems like flickering lights or tripped breakers, we use advanced diagnostic equipment to trace the precise fault rather than addressing only what’s visible on the surface, and we can walk you through what we find before we begin repairs.
