Kitchen Remodel Electrical Services
A kitchen remodel is more than new cabinets and appliances — it requires safe, clean, and properly designed electrical work. Green Street Electric provides professional kitchen electrical services for remodels, upgrades, and new layouts throughout Richmond, Chesterfield, Henrico, Hanover, and surrounding areas.

We ensure your kitchen wiring meets modern code, supports your new appliances, and gives you the lighting and power you need for years to come.

Dedicated Circuits for Modern Kitchens

Today’s kitchens require far more power than older homes were designed for. We install and upgrade dedicated circuits for:

  • Refrigerators
  • Microwaves
  • Dishwashers
  • Garbage disposals
  • Wall ovens
  • Cooktops / ranges
  • Kitchen islands
  • Under-cabinet lighting
  • Coffee bars / appliance stations

If your remodel involves new appliances or relocating existing ones, we make sure the electrical system is capable, safe, and compliant with NEC code requirements.

GFCI & AFCI Protection (Code-Required)

Modern kitchens require:

  • GFCI protection for all counter outlets
  • AFCI protection on most kitchen circuits
  • Correct spacing of countertop outlets
  • Proper small-appliance circuits

We install new GFCI outlets, upgrade old wiring, and ensure every receptacle is properly protected — including island outlets, peninsula outlets, and appliance circuits.

Kitchen Lighting Installation

We install a full range of kitchen lighting, including:

  • Recessed lighting
  • Pendant lighting (especially over islands)
  • Under-cabinet lighting
  • Over-sink lighting
  • LED upgrades
  • Smart dimmers and lighting controls

We focus on clean installation with minimal drywall disturbance and ensure even spacing, proper fixture support, and safe wiring.

Switches, Dimmers & Controls

We add and relocate switches to match your new layout. Options include:

  • Standard switches
  • Multi-location switches
  • LED-rated dimmers
  • Smart dimmers with app control
  • Separate fan/light controls

We ensure lighting controls match your remodel’s design and usability.

Islands, Peninsulas & New Outlet Locations

Most kitchen remodels require:

  • New island outlets
  • New peninsula outlets
  • Relocating old outlets
  • Removing outdated positions
  • Adding appliance circuits
  • Proper spacing between countertop outlets

We ensure everything meets code and aligns with your new cabinetry and countertop layout.

Hood Vents, Microwave Relocation & Specialty Installs

We safely install wiring for:

  • Hood vent blowers
  • Over-the-range microwaves
  • Built-in microwaves
  • Drawer microwaves
  • Wine coolers
  • Under-counter refrigerators
  • Warming drawers

Where needed, we add new circuits to prevent overloads and tripping breakers.

Old Wiring Removal & Modern Code Upgrades

Many older kitchens have outdated wiring that is not safe for modern electrical loads.
We handle:

  • Removal of knob-and-tube (if present)
  • Removal of aluminum wiring
  • Upgrading undersized circuits
  • Panel corrections
  • Grounding improvements

We bring your kitchen up to today’s standards.
