Your Trusted Virginia Square Electrical Contractor
Virginia Square sits at the heart of Arlington's Rosslyn-Ballston corridor, anchored by the Virginia Square Metro station and George Mason University's Arlington campus. The neighborhood has undergone significant transformation since the early 2000s, with high-rise condominiums and mixed-use developments replacing many of the single-family homes that once characterized the area. A handful of original bungalows and smaller homes remain, creating an interesting juxtaposition of old and new that reflects Arlington's ongoing evolution.
The electrical landscape of Virginia Square mirrors its architectural diversity. Modern condo buildings generally have adequate electrical systems, but units built in the early 2000s are now approaching the age where original components begin to fail and electrical demands have grown beyond initial design specifications. EV charging infrastructure is a growing priority for building associations as residents increasingly drive electric vehicles. The remaining original homes in the neighborhood face the typical challenges of pre-war construction, including outdated wiring and undersized panels.
AJ Long Electric serves both the modern and historic sides of Virginia Square. For condo residents and associations, we provide EV charging installations, unit panel upgrades, and smart home wiring that enhances modern urban living. For owners of the neighborhood's remaining original homes, we offer the same comprehensive rewiring and modernization services that define our work throughout Arlington's older neighborhoods.
