"I had been having a very difficult time finding someone to do this job. We are located in a rural area and needed a residential panel changed out to an ag panel. I went on Home advisors and filled out the information and as soon as I submitted it I recieved a call from Linx Electrix. He said he would be out to my property the next day with an estimate. I'm so glad I found this company. From start to finish they were quick, and professional. I highly recommend to anyone in need of any electrical service. Thanks again!"

"We hired Borders to replace our homes’ electrical panel. I had also spoken to other companies as part of our planning and Borders was the most professional & had the best communication by far… that’s one of the most important things to me & it should be to you. Once we started the process, Andy kept me apprised of every step, including the process with the City permitting and PG&E. When we were cleared to go, all of the resources with the City as well as PG&E were coordinated and ready to go. On the day of install, Andy and his team were here early, prepared with all materials & supplies and hit the ground running. Andy was great about explaining the steps & components being included in the job. While here, Andy was also able to take a look at a couple of issues in our home. Shortly after, I hired Borders to install a number of GFI outlets. The job was scheduled quickly and completed professionally. I HIGHLY recommend Borders, have told neighbors & will use them again!"

"We could not recommend Curt more, his work is exceptional! We had him work as a contractor during our home remodel and he did all the electrical work himself which included rewiring for a garage office, placing new plug and mounting a tv above our fireplace, putting in lighting in 3 rooms, switching out an exhaust and heated fan, making sure our kitchen electrical was up to standard and put in new wiring for peninsula and under counter drawer style microwave. He even learned a new skill for our project of microcement to cover existing tile in our bathroom and fireplace surround. He went above and beyond consulting with the manufacturer. Curt was great to work with, communicates well and makes sure the work is done to a high standard."

"Wighton's is great about communicating with their customers.  They called the day before to remind us of the appointment, and then when the service tech was on his way, another call was made to let me know.
He was very polite and considerate.  He even put on shoe covers before coming in the house.  He took the time to explain exactly what he was going to do and why.  After he was done he went over the results of the tests and gave me copies of everything.  Everything was working fine and no repairs were needed or recommended.  He did suggest that we consider upgrading our thermostat, but there was no pressure to do so.

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Arroyo Grande, CA

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.
