Three Generations, One Standard — Family Electricians in Milwaukee, WI
Since 1978, Milwaukee families have trusted Halloran & Daughters with their homes — repairs, panels, lighting, and wiring, done honestly and done right. Now run by the daughters who grew up in the trade, we still treat every home like our own.
A Family Name You Can Trust
In 1978, Jim Halloran started an electrical company on a simple promise: do honest work, treat people right, and stand behind your name. Nearly fifty years later, his daughters run the company — and that promise hasn't changed a bit. We're a family business in the truest sense: three generations of licensed electricians who've wired, repaired, and upgraded Milwaukee homes through every era. That history means something. It means we're still here to stand behind our work, we know this city's old homes intimately, and we answer to our own name on every job. When a Halloran works in your home, you get the care, the honesty, and the craftsmanship a family reputation demands.

Milwaukee Families on Halloran & Daughters
Halloran wired my parents' house, then my first house, and last month one of the daughters came out to install a new panel and EV charger at the home my husband and I just bought. Three generations of my family, served by three generations of theirs. They're honest to a fault — the estimate is the price, they tell you when something doesn't actually need doing, and they treat your home like it's their own grandmother's. In a trade full of people who'll upsell you a whole rewire, Halloran & Daughters is the rare firm you trust completely. We'll never call anyone else.
After a scary sparking outlet, I wanted someone I could trust in my home. A Halloran electrician came the same day, was kind and unhurried, found and fixed the real problem, and checked the rest of the house for peace of mind — all for a fair, honest price. You can feel the difference a family reputation makes.
We updated the wiring and lighting throughout our 1920s home, and Halloran treated it with the care an old house deserves. Meticulous, respectful of the character, cleaned up every day, and the craftsmanship is beautiful. Nearly fifty years in business shows in every detail. A Milwaukee institution for a reason.
Trust Your Home to a Family That's Earned It
From a single outlet to a full panel upgrade, get honest, careful electrical work from Milwaukee's family electricians since 1978.
We Know Milwaukee's Old Homes
Milwaukee is a city of beautiful old houses — Cream City brick bungalows, Polish flats, grand old Victorians — and their wiring often tells the story of a dozen decades and a dozen owners. That takes an electrician who understands old homes, not just new ones: knob-and-tube hiding in the walls, undersized panels, ungrounded outlets, additions wired in eras with different rules. After 47 years of working in these houses, we know them like old friends. We update them safely and respectfully — bringing the electrical into the present without disturbing the character that makes them worth keeping. Your old house deserves an electrician who appreciates it, and that's exactly what a Halloran brings.
- ✓Deep experience with Milwaukee's old homes
- ✓Knob-and-tube, aluminum, and ungrounded wiring
- ✓Modernized safely, character preserved
- ✓Respectful, careful, meticulous work
Frequently Asked Questions
Are you really family-owned?
Truly. Jim Halloran founded the company in 1978, and today his daughters run it — with a third generation now in the trade. We're a family business in the fullest sense, and it shapes everything: we answer to our own name on every job, we're still here to stand behind decades of work, and we treat your home the way we'd treat family's.
Is any job too small?
Never. A single outlet, a flickering light, a fixture you've been meaning to hang — we're genuinely happy to help. After fifty years, we know the 'small' jobs matter to you, and we treat them with the same care as a full panel upgrade. No job is beneath us and none is too big.
Do you work on older homes?
They're a specialty. Milwaukee is full of beautiful old houses, and we've spent decades working in them — knob-and-tube, aluminum wiring, undersized panels, and the quirks of a century of additions. We modernize old-home electrical safely while respecting the character that makes these homes special.
How do your estimates work?
Honestly. We assess the work and give you a clear, upfront estimate — and that's the price you pay. We'll also tell you when something doesn't actually need doing. No upsells, no scare tactics, no surprises on the bill. It's how we've kept Milwaukee's trust for 47 years.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes — Halloran & Daughters is led by a licensed Wisconsin master electrician (#EL-4471) and fully insured. Nearly five decades of licensed, insured, and reputable work is exactly the kind of firm you want in your home.
