Wharton’s Electric, Inc., a Family Owned & Operated Business

Founded in 1960 by the late Raymond and Pam Wharton. Wiring new houses & up-grading existing electrical system was the primary scope of work for the first few years.

The company then became an Authorized Electric Heating Dealer for the Potomac Edison Power Company in 1964. That same year, Wharton’s Electric had a retail store in Burton’s Shopping Center in LaVale, MD. This store featured a lighting fixture display and sold electrical equipment to the public.

In 1989 the business moved from Parkside Blvd to its current location of 40 National Hwy, LaVale. The founder's sons Tab and Todd took over operations in 2004 and continued to expand and improve the company. Reliable, prompt service remains the foundation of Wharton's Electric, Inc. since 1960.
