Our services
Ten kinds of electrical work, one licensed crew out of Howard. Every job is walked, scoped and priced for your building. No price lists, no one-size packages.
Steel buildings, retail, restaurants, offices, clinics and churches, from the service entrance and gear to the last exit sign. We work from your drawings or design-build with your GC, on sites from Mount Vernon and Newark to Delaware and the north Columbus suburbs.

Three-phase distribution, motor controls, machine hookups, conveyors and hoist power for shops and plants around Knox and Licking counties. Planned shutdowns happen on nights or weekends so your line keeps running.
Request a quote
Grain dryers and bins, livestock barns, shops and underground feeders across Knox County farm country. Materials rated for dust, moisture and a central Ohio winter.
Request a quote
Custom homes, additions and remodels in Howard, Fredericktown, Gambier and Centerburg. We walk the framing with you before rough-in so outlets and lighting land where you'll use them.
Request a quote
100-amp to 200 or 400-amp upgrades, old panel replacements and meter bases, coordinated with AEP Ohio or your co-op for the reconnect.

Whole-home and business standby generators with automatic transfer switches, so the well, sump and furnace keep going through the next ice storm on a rural line.

Apple Valley Lake is a few minutes from our shop. We wire docks, lifts, shoreline lighting and waterfront buildings with proper GFCI protection and bonding.
Request a quote
High-bay warehouse lighting, parking lot poles, sign circuits and interior retrofits that cut energy use without dark corners.
Request a quote
Structured cabling, network drops, camera and access-control power for offices, schools and shops, pulled at the same time as the power so walls only open once.
Request a quote
Tripping breakers, dead circuits, flickering lights and failed inspections. We find the cause, explain it plainly and fix it right.
Request a quoteWhy you won't find prices here. A 400-amp service for a new pole barn and a tenant fit-out in downtown Mount Vernon have nothing in common. We look at your site, then send a written quote for that job, and we talk it through with you before anything starts.

Why us

Questions
Still unsure? Call (740) 427-2476. You'll talk to someone who does the work.
Because every building is different. Service size, distance to the meter, trenching, and code requirements change the work from one job to the next. We walk your site, send a written quote, and talk it through with you. See everything we do on the services page.

Site walks in Knox County are usually booked within a week. Start dates depend on the size of the job and on permit timing, and we give you a realistic date in the quote. For outages or storm damage, call rather than email.
Tell us within 7 days and we come back to address it. The full terms are in our Refund Policy.
The address, a short description of the work, and drawings if you have them. For service upgrades, a photo of the panel and meter helps. For farms, tell us which buildings need power and roughly where they sit.
We're based in Howard and work across Knox County every day, plus Licking, Delaware, Morrow and Coshocton counties. Larger commercial and industrial jobs take us throughout central Ohio.
About us
Buckingham Electric is an electrical contractor on Hazel Dell Road in Howard, a few minutes from Apple Valley Lake. Dustin Buckingham built the company on commercial and industrial work, and on the kind of farm and residential jobs that keep a Knox County electrician busy year round.
Our trucks cover a lot of ground: steel buildings going up along US-36, plant floors in Mount Vernon and Newark, grain operations outside Danville, lake homes, marinas and new subdivisions in Delaware County. The work changes from one day to the next. The standard doesn't.
We quote every job individually because we'd rather understand your building than sell you a package. You get a written scope, a straight conversation about cost, and a crew that shows up when we said it would.
Every job is done under our Ohio contractor license, permitted where required and inspected, so the work stands up when your insurer, your inspector or your next buyer takes a look.

Testimonials
Farms, plants, storage buildings and lake homes around Knox County.
Buckingham wired our new steel storage building from the transformer pad to the gate keypad. The quote was clear, they worked around the other trades, and inspection passed the first time.
They rewired our grain dryer and moved the service without costing us a single harvest day. Dustin explained every line of the price before we signed.
Two new presses needed three-phase drops and new disconnects. They did it over a weekend and we ran Monday morning.
Our lake house needed a panel upgrade and dock power. Professional, tidy, and they showed up exactly when they said. Highly recommend.
