We offer all services in Odenton, but you may be particularly interested in the options below:
Lighting & Fixture Installations & Updates
One of the best ways to update your home and bring it forward into “feeling” current is to change out the lighting fixtures. Along with upgrading the feel of your home, new lighting fixtures can improve energy efficiency, bring brighter light into darker rooms, and improve the overall function and feel of your home. If you’re looking for an electrician for lighting fixtures in Maryland – our team is on the job and ready to help.
Ceiling Fan Installation
Days with temperature extremes call for a ceiling fan. The ability to move air around your home can be a big upgrade on a warm or cold day. A ceiling fan can distribute warm or cooled air around your home, and on a hot and humid day, sitting under the ceiling fan can make those days just a little bit more bearable.
Electric Vehicle Charging Stations
Electric vehicles are becoming more popular, and the ability to charge your vehicle right at your home is a big bonus when you’ve invested in energy alternative transportation. Our team of highly-rated electricians can help you decide where to place your EV charging station, and advise on the best type of charger for your current electrical situation and vehicle. We can also install the wiring without the unit to make your home EV-ready as an upgrade to your home as you get it ready for sale.
Circuit Panel Upgrades
We can help perform what is called a “Heavy Up” or an upgrade to a 200 amp circuit panel. This is most often done in older homes or when an appliance is added that puts a strain on your circuit panel and breakers. The classic symptom that may be an indicator that you need an upgrade is frequently tripping breakers.
Dedicated Circuits
Occasionally a home business or fun feature may require a dedicated circuit. You may want to add a hot tub, or a dedicated circuit for a laundry room or pool house. Whatever the use, our team will help determine the best way to create, wire and operate your dedicated circuit.
Loss of Power
Losing power can be one of the most stressful issues a homeowner can run into. No power means freezers are thawing, air conditioning or heating may not be working, and laundry isn’t getting done. A fast, accurate, and effective response from your electrician is important after you’ve confirmed that the power outage isn’t impacting anyone else nearby.
Adding an Outlet
Older homes are notorious for not having enough outlets in a room. Newer construction is generally built with plenty of opportunities for outlets that serve lamps, appliances, etc.. If you’d like an outlet added or moved near Odenton, our team can help! Give us a call today to schedule an appointment.
Bathroom Exhaust Fan Installation or Upgrade
If you’d like to upgrade your bathroom exhaust fan – or if you’d like one added where none existed before, our team can come to your home near Odenton, MD and install an exhaust fan for you. We install a variety of models including those that have a fan and a light – most bathrooms could use a bit more lighting in many cases.

Arrived onsite and began by taking outside photos of the meter and grounding, and then we went through the entire house together to complete the yearly maintenance. I found almost all outlets I came too were backstabbed and some upstairs have been replaced already by her husband. I talked to her about her smoke detectors and she and her husband are already putting in 3 combo nest detectors they are ordering. Upon going from the top of the house to the basement, it became apparent the house needs a re device so she also joined me in counting all the devices throughout the house. When I got to the panel, I opened it up and immediately found 2 double tapped breakers, 1 that was 2 circuits combined, and 1 that was both legs of a branch circuit on one breaker. I explained the issue with that and the fix as well, and found one bad gfci on the kitchen countertop. I wrote up my full assessment and went over it with her, wrote up a quote for the redevice, and a dedicated microwave circuit becau

Customer decided to go with our recommendation which we installed today. Grounding system at all code requirements, and all the terminals inside. The panel were tightened down properly. All receptacles and switches inside the Home were working and we found no other issues.

Customer called because they were having some issues with the circuit number 10 in with the home GFCI circuit after finding That the receptacles were 20 years old and they were backstabbed I wrote up some options to take care of all the devices throughout the home or just within those two circuits that were giving them issues I also brought up the idea of a whole home surge protector and some other ideas throughout the home I emailed the options to the customer they needed some time to think about it and I wanted to respect her wishes

customer originally called to have some fans installed in pre wired locations. Home is only a few weeks old and has everything up to code. When i looked in the panel to ensure all the neutrals and connections were tight for safety concerns i noticed there was no surge protection. The neighborhood is still being built and i told the custoemrs about how their house since it is complete is at a risk. So they decided to move forward with the upgrade option. This included me installing 3 ceiling fans in the master bedroom and guest bedrooms and wire a chandelier in the dinning room. I also installed switches in the rooms for the fans. I then installed a whole home surge protector in the main panel and landed it on a 2 pole 50 amp square d qo breaker

The reason for today’s visit with customer was a continuously tripping breaker for the garage/outdoor plugs. After arriving i was taken to the garage where i saw a 200 amp Homeline panel installed in 02. The panel had multiple shared neutrals/double taps/ and a shared circuit. After inspecting the panel, i checked the integrity of the exterior outlets where i saw both had water damage/Mulberry flapper style covers that was allowing moisture to set in. After inspecting the outlets i began assessing why the breaker was tripping with the mower. The mower was an electric 12 amp plug in style mower. I plugged it into the garage then into the living room outlets and saw it was still causing a trip. I then plugged it into the washer outlet which was a 20 amp circuit and it caused a trip there as well. After seeing the washer outlet i recommended on GFCI protection due to device being within 6 ft of water. After testing the mower in multiple locations and testing the circuits i made my recomme

I tapped out of the switch in the attic then ran a wire up and supported it on the joists then installed a single gang new work box and a tamper resistant receptacle. Then i set the template on the roof and cut out a hole for a attic fan then I pulled up the shingles and slide the new attic fan into place then installed screws and roofing tar to seal up any water from getting into the attic. This is a cool breeze smart fan.

Timely, courteous, and professional service
Knowledgeable, professional
Nick was amazing. Our issue was very simple to resolve, but he took the time to explain everything to me, kindly and thoroughly. He was very respectful of my home, and my lack of knowledge. I will definitely use this business for future electrical needs, and highly recommend them to others.
The task Matt tackled for us was spread out over four long (for him) days, and he was prompt every day. Matt was very professional and his work ethic is beyond reproach. The work involved relocating a breaker panel, and running a new supply line on the outside of the house.. What I was most impressed by, though, was the fact that out of four electrical contractors we asked for prices, Matt/Haas and Sons was the only one who didn't balk when we asked for a permit to be pulled for the job. I would absolutely recommend Haas and Matt for any electrical work you need to have performed.
Alex was a pleasure to have in my home and very professional in the work he was doing. He was efficient and got a lot of work done in a short amount of time.
Would definitely recommend. Diagnostic skills were excellent and corrected the problem very efficiently and provided clear explanations as to what was the problem.
Nick was outstanding, diagnosed problem quickly; explained the source, the solution and cost up front; and finished the job expertly! 5 STAR work!!!
Very easy to contact. Michael was amazingly efficient, neat and clean. He is extremely knowledgeable, trustworthy, pleasant and a pleasure to work with,
The technician Michael was knowledgeable, friendly and very personable. He kept me informed each step of the way about what needed to be done. If I have any future electrical work to be done I will definitely be contacting Haas & sons.
Great professioanl service. Alex, the technican, is an expert and provided outstanding work. If I have electrical need again, I will definitely use them again.
Excellent Services!
Very professional
