Quad Cities Home ProsElectricians in the Quad Cities
Compare local electricians serving Davenport, Bettendorf, Moline, Rock Island, East Moline and surrounding Quad Cities communities.
The electrical systems in many Quad Cities homes were designed for a fraction of what today's households draw — older fuse panels, cloth-insulated wiring, and 60-amp services can't safely support modern appliances, EV chargers, or even a central air unit added after the fact. Upgrades and repairs to those systems aren't optional safety items, they're fire prevention. The electricians listed here work across Davenport, Bettendorf, Moline, Rock Island, and East Moline and handle panel upgrades, rewiring, fixture installs, and troubleshooting.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my home's electrical panel needs upgrading?
Signs you've outgrown your panel include frequent breaker trips, fuses that blow under normal load, a 60- or 100-amp service when you're adding an EV charger, mini-split, or finished basement, or a panel with visible corrosion or outdated brands like Federal Pacific or Zinsco that are known fire risks. Many Quad Cities homes built before 1970 still carry 100-amp or smaller service; a licensed electrician can measure your actual load and tell you whether 200-amp service is warranted.
Is aluminum wiring really a problem in older homes?
Solid-aluminum branch wiring installed in the 1960s and early '70s is a known fire risk because it expands and contracts at connection points, loosening screws and overheating. If your home dates to that era, a licensed electrician should inspect at the panel and at every outlet and switch. The safe fixes are pigtailing copper at every device, a whole-home copalum-style retrofit, or full rewiring — not ignoring it.
Can I install an EV charger or hot tub on my current panel?
Only if the panel has spare capacity and a free double-pole breaker slot — which many older 100-amp services here don't. A level 2 EV charger draws 30 to 50 amps and a hot tub similar; adding either may require a panel upgrade or a subpanel. An electrician will do a load calculation per the National Electrical Code and tell you honestly what your panel can support before you buy the equipment.
Do electricians in Iowa and Illinois need to be licensed?
It depends which side of the river you are on. Iowa runs a statewide program through the Electrical Examining Board, which licenses electricians at several levels — apprentice through master — plus a separate electrical contractor license for the business. Illinois has no state electrician license; each city, village, or county sets its own rules, so a Moline or Rock Island electrician is credentialed locally. Either way, pull the required permits for panel upgrades, new circuits, and service changes — the inspection that follows protects you from shoddy work and makes the installation legal.
