Licensed Electricians — Not Helpers

Every job is performed or directly supervised by a licensed New York electrician. We do not send an unlicensed helper to diagnose your electrical system.

All Work Permitted & Code Compliant

If the job needs a permit, it gets one. If it needs an inspection, it passes one. That protects your home value and your insurance claim.

Upfront Pricing, In Writing

You see the price before any work starts, and that is the price you pay. No hourly surprises, no change orders invented halfway through the day.

Veteran Owned, Family Run Since 1984

A New York State certified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Business, run by the Cannizzo family in Monroe County for more than forty years.

We Clean Up Before We Leave

Drop cloths down, debris out, panel labeled and the work explained to you in plain English before we pull out of the driveway.

Questions

Before You Book

Do you charge for the estimate? +
On-site estimates for installation and upgrade work — panels, generators, EV chargers, rewiring — are free. For a repair or troubleshooting call, there is a diagnostic fee that we tell you about before we ever schedule, so there is no surprise at the door.
How fast can you get here? +
Most Monroe County calls are scheduled within a day or two, and we keep room for same-day emergency work. If you smell burning, see scorch marks, or your panel is hot to the touch, call (585) 539-9922 right away rather than filling in a form.
Are you licensed and insured? +
Yes. Cannizzo Electric is a licensed and insured New York State electrical contractor, and a New York State certified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Business. We have been working in Monroe County since 1984.
Do I need a permit for my job? +
Panel and service upgrades, generator installs, EV chargers and new circuits normally do. We pull the permit, do the work to NEC code, and handle the final inspection ourselves. Unpermitted electrical work is one of the fastest ways to lose an insurance claim or hold up a home sale.
My breaker keeps tripping. Is that urgent? +
A breaker that trips once in a while under heavy load is usually a circuit that is overloaded. A breaker that trips repeatedly, feels warm, or will not reset is telling you something is wrong — a failing breaker, a short, or damaged wiring. That one is worth a same-day call.
Do you still work on older Rochester homes? +
Every week. Knob-and-tube, cloth wiring, aluminum branch circuits, fuse boxes and 60 or 100 amp services are normal here, and we upgrade them safely without tearing the house apart.
What does the price include? +
Labor, materials, the permit where one is required, and the final inspection. You see the number in writing and approve it before work starts. The price we quote is the price you pay.
Do you do commercial work? +
Our focus is residential service across Monroe County. If you have a small commercial or light industrial job, call us and we will tell you honestly whether it is a fit.
