About Our Laurel Services
Your Trusted Laurel Electrical Contractor
Laurel sits at the intersection of Prince George's, Anne Arundel, Howard, and Montgomery counties along the historic Patuxent River, with the bulk of the city in Prince George's County. Originally a 19th-century mill town and railroad junction, Laurel today is a mid-sized city of about 25,000 with a remarkable mix of housing stock: well-preserved Victorian and bungalow homes in the Old Town historic district, midcentury ranchers and capes in West Laurel and South Laurel, and substantial 1990s-2010s townhouse and single-family developments along Route 1 and the BWI corridor.
The Old Town Laurel historic district is one of the most distinctive in the DMV, with 19th-century mill workers' housing, Queen Anne and Folk Victorian homes, and the original B&O Railroad station still intact. Electrical work in historic Laurel homes requires careful balance: code-compliant updates that don't damage period millwork, plaster walls, or original fixtures. We have rewired several Old Town homes for new owners replacing knob-and-tube wiring and 60-amp fuse panels, working through the City of Laurel's historic preservation review process to maintain exterior period appearance while bringing electrical fully up to current code.
Beyond Old Town, Laurel's BWI-corridor proximity has driven both residential growth (commuter-friendly townhouse and SFD developments) and commercial demand (warehouse and distribution facilities, BWI-adjacent hotels and restaurants). The MD Live Casino at Arundel Mills (just over the county line) and the Patuxent Research Refuge (the federal wildlife research center on Laurel's northern edge) add hospitality, federal, and research-facility electrical work to the mix.
For Laurel homeowners, our most common services are panel upgrades from aging 100-amp service to modern 200-amp, generator installations (the Patuxent corridor takes serious summer storm hits), EV charger installations, and dedicated circuits for kitchen and basement renovations. For commercial clients, we handle tenant electrical, lighting retrofits, and small-to-mid commercial installations.
AJ Long Electric is the family-owned electrical contractor Laurel residents trust because we treat historic preservation seriously, we pull all required permits with City of Laurel and PG County, and we back every job with a workmanship warranty.
