"Mr. Felts and his crew showed up as planned. They were quiet and kept to the job at hand. The job was to wire a large shed with outlets and breaker box with outside lighting as well. They wired shed to home at the breaker box. I had lost so much confidence in people doing a job and correctly for a fair price and in a timely manner. These guys have given us hope. The did excellent work as discussed and at a fair price. The entire job and it was not a small undertaking was completed and CLEANED UP! in 1.5 days. There is no way to express how pleased we are with these guys. They are professionals and we are looking at another project to het them back. I will use them not matter how big or small. They are super fantastic and you will not be surprised but instead pleased. P.S. My husband wondered if their reviews were a hoax since we have so much bad luck with workers and the jobs they performed and the quality of work afterwards. He is a believer too...the reviews and THIS review is honest from the heart due to we KNOW what it is like to be taken advantage of and screwed over. Premium Electric is not the correct name it should be "EXCELLENT ELECTRIC"!!!! good luck with any projects in the future but if you need electric this is the place to hire."

"Great customer service and quality work. We did a complete rewire and electrical upgrade to our home. This was a pretty complex and exhaustive job. The techs were solid in their understanding of our upgrade needs and thorough in their work. Highly recommended."

"The workman was definitely worthy of his hire. This gentleman not only solved my problem but advised me on how not to make it worse before he could arrive to fix it. Very fast service, very professional, was willing to teach me How to do it as he fixed the problem. Had very friendly conversation and exact knowledge on the job at hand. Felt like I was in a hands on electrical workshop at my own home. It inspired me to learn electrical handling. I’d call Jehi services again and again and also HIGHLY RECOMMEND their services to family and friends."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Albany, GA

Yes, a licensed electrician is essential for this project. Running an electrical service from the road to your house involves connecting to utility power lines, complying with national and local electrical codes, and safely handling high-voltage systems. 

Licensed professionals understand proper wire sizing, grounding requirements, and voltage drop calculations needed for safe installation. Most jurisdictions require permits and inspections that only certified professionals can obtain. The safety risks and potential for property damage make this project inappropriate for DIY attempts.

Overhead installations are less expensive than underground options. For a 1000-foot run, overhead service costs between $8,000 and $15,000, while underground service ranges from $10,000 to $25,000. 

Overhead lines require less labor and fewer materials since they don't need trenching or conduit. However, underground lines offer better protection from weather events and aesthetic benefits. Your decision should balance your budget constraints with long-term reliability and visual preferences.

You might need to upgrade your electrical panel depending on your power requirements. If your existing panel cannot handle the additional load from the extended service, upgrading to a 200-amp service (costing $750 to $2,000) may be necessary. 

A licensed electrician can evaluate your current system and determine if an upgrade is required. Factors include what you'll be powering at the end of the line, existing electrical demand, and whether voltage drop over the distance will affect performance.

Running electric service from the road to a house requires electrical permits from your local building department, costing between $500 and $2,000 depending on your location. You may also need excavation permits for trenching work if installing an underground service. Your utility company will have its own application process for connecting to its grid. A licensed electrical contractor can handle all the necessary permit applications as part of their service, ensuring your installation meets all local code requirements.
