Town of Red Hook · ZIP 12571, 12583, 12504 · Includes Red Hook, Tivoli, Annandale-on-Hudson, Barrytown, Upper Red Hook
Valley Electric provides residential electrical service across the town of Red Hook, including the villages of Red Hook and Tivoli and the hamlets of Annandale-on-Hudson, Barrytown, and Upper Red Hook, home to Bard College along Routes 9, 9G, and 199. Many of the homes here are historic, and we work carefully on wiring that has been in place a long time.
Historic homes often have ungrounded outlets, older wiring, and panels that were never sized for modern use. We update outlets and switches, add GFCI and AFCI protection, correct connections that no longer meet code, and upgrade lighting in a way that respects an older house. When a panel is full, we evaluate what it takes to add capacity, and we add whole-home surge protection to guard sensitive electronics.
