Looking for an electrician in Chillicothe, OH? Walsh Brothers Electric handles repairs, panel upgrades, rewiring, and EV charger installation for homes and businesses across Ross County.
Chillicothe has some of the oldest housing stock in Central Ohio, and older homes come with older wiring. We work on undersized service panels, cloth and aluminum branch wiring, ungrounded two-prong outlets, and additions that were wired years ago without much thought for how much power a modern household actually draws. Whether you own a historic home near downtown or a newer build on the edge of town, we sort out what needs replacing now and what can wait.

Electrical Work Chillicothe Homes Actually Need
Most calls we take in Chillicothe fall into three buckets. The first is capacity: a 60 or 100 amp panel that trips when the AC and the dryer run together, which usually means a service upgrade rather than another breaker. The second is safety in older wiring, where insulation has gone brittle, junction boxes are buried behind drywall, or a previous owner ran an extension of the circuit themselves. The third is adding something new, like a garage circuit, a hot tub feed, basement lighting, or a Level 2 EV charger. We tell you which category you are in before any work starts, and we pull the permits and arrange inspection when the job calls for it.

Questions from Chillicothe homeowners
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you work on older Chillicothe homes with outdated wiring?
Yes. A lot of our Ross County work involves houses built well before modern electrical codes. We check the service panel, grounding, and branch circuits, then give you a written plan that prioritizes safety issues first instead of quoting a whole-house rewire you may not need.
How do I know if my electrical panel needs upgrading?
Breakers that trip when two large appliances run, a panel labeled 60 or 100 amps, a fuse box, scorch marks, a warm panel cover, or flickering lights when the furnace kicks on are the usual signs. If you are adding an EV charger, a heat pump, or a finished basement, the panel almost always needs a look first.
Can you install an EV charger in Chillicothe?
We install Level 2 chargers in garages, carports, and driveways, including running the dedicated 240 volt circuit and confirming your panel has the capacity for it. See our EV charger installation in Chillicothe page for details.
