"I recently had Falcon Electrical come out and add 20 amp outlets and wires to my garage, bedroom, and shed. Robert, the electrician who assisted me, was knowledgeable, communicative, and punctual. He explained everything clearly, and the work was done quickly and efficiently. I found the pricing to be very fair, and I'm extremely happy with the results. Having these new outlets and wires is going to make using my tools and equipment much more convenient, and it's a huge relief to have reliable power in all three areas. Overall, I would highly recommend Falcon Electrical to anyone in need of electrical services. They provided excellent service and delivered exactly what I needed. Thanks again to Falcon Electrical and Robert for their great work!"

"This project involved fixing some outside wiring and outlets. The GFI continued to trip and finding the source of the ground was difficult. Jason, the owner, truly believes in customer satisfaction and adjusted his schedule to come out and review the situation with the technician. Because the original wire was buried under concrete, a new wire had to be run. They did this and completed the job, holding to the original estimate. I truly appreciated their effort and commitment to customer service and getting the problem fixed."

"Getting a whole house generator is a huge investment so I shopped around and got 4 quotes because of the wide range of cost estimates. Other people said the cost "would be around" an amount, and Brandon gave me a detailed exact price. Had people tell me different things about where I could put the generator. Brandon came out and explained everything and said I could put the generator where I wanted it. His crews (electrical, gas) were professional, appeared to know exactly what they were doing, worked efficiently, and left the job site very clean. Brandon provided everything I wanted--he has a long track record of installing generators, has been in business for many years, offered a 10 yr warranty, offers an annual check-up plan, and made sure I was happy with everything."

"Bought an older house without any grounds, no way to run new wiring bc I have no attic and on a slab. Guy was able to ground the entire house by grounding the electrical box. It was quick, pain free and so smooth! I love these guys!"

"Bernard quoted $520 for the job. He did it in about 3.5 hours total. Approximately. Unfortunately we had the wrong ceiling fan and that slowed things up a bit but wasn't his fault. Bernard is very conscientious in how he does things and I felt good about the quality and seriousness of his work. He ended up charging us $425 for the work. This is the first time I have ever had a contractor fairly charge me when the job came in early or under budget."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Abita Springs, LA

While homeowners with substantial electrical knowledge might technically attempt a subpanel installation, most local building departments require permits and inspections for this type of work. Professional electricians understand local code requirements, can obtain necessary permits, and ensure the installation meets safety standards. Given the significant safety risks associated with incorrect electrical work, most homeowners benefit from hiring a licensed professional.

A standard subpanel installation takes an average of four to eight hours. This timeframe may extend if you're installing multiple subpanels or adding specialized circuits like those for spa equipment. Factors such as difficult access points, complex wiring paths, or permit processing times can also affect the overall project duration.

Adding a subpanel doesn't directly reduce electricity consumption or lower your utility bills. A subpanel simply redistributes power from your main panel to additional circuits. However, organizing your electrical system more efficiently may help prevent overloaded circuits and the associated problems. For actual cost savings, consider energy-efficient appliances and lighting instead.

The appropriate subpanel size depends on your specific electrical requirements. Consider the number and type of devices you'll be powering, potential future needs, and the capacity of your main electrical panel. An electrician can perform a load calculation to determine the most suitable amperage rating for your situation, ensuring you have adequate power without overpaying for unnecessary capacity.

A main electrical panel connects directly to your utility's power supply and contains your home's primary service disconnect. It distributes electricity throughout your entire house. A subpanel, by contrast, receives power from the main panel and redistributes it to a specific area of your home. Think of the main panel as the primary distribution point and the subpanel as a secondary branch that extends your electrical system's reach.

While electrical upgrades aren't as immediately visible as kitchen or bathroom renovations, they can contribute to your home's functionality and safety. Prospective buyers often appreciate updated electrical systems that can accommodate modern power demands. A properly installed subpanel that provides additional capacity for workshops, home offices, or future expansions could be an attractive feature for certain buyers, though the direct impact on home value varies by market.
