"Project was upgrading service from 100 to 200 amps, installing new panel, new meter, grounding, and a new drop from the street. I gathered a number of quotes, and by far felt the most comfortable with Mr. Hyman. Plus the price for the job was in line with my expectations. The work was completed quickly and professionally. I'd definitely recommended using them."

"not just professional efficient! Unbelievably fair priced literally less than half of what a major competitor on this site quoted using my own parts and my own wire! Just because there are any energy list doesn’t mean some people won’t try and rip you off and fools will pay it. Mr. NAGY is a professional and very ethical. I’d recommend hiring him again and again!"

"This job was done quickly and correctly. I used him in the past with running stove upgraded wire to the electrical box. I was very happy with that project, so I used Vital Electric again and will use him in the future! Pricing is very reasonable."

"Felix came to my home to install 3 low profile electrical outlets underneath my dry bar cabinets this morning. I have under cabinet outlets under my kitchen cabinets, so I wanted them in the dry bar area also. Felix was punctual and professional. He did a great job in installing my stainless steel outlets. Felix did some upgrades to my other electrical outlets in my basement area also. I had taken estimates from other electricians, but Three Brothers Services, LLC offered the most affordable prices for my project. I would definitely recommend this electrical service to friends and family."

"On June 10, I had a company to install security equipment in my home. In doing so, the installer drilled through a wire and I did not have electricity in several outlets due to the damage. Since the company did not have an electrician on staff and was unable to refer me to anyone, I turned to Angie’s List for help in finding someone to correct the problem. I called Hands on Electric on June 11 and spoke to the owner, Kevin Williams. I explained my problem to Mr. Williams and he gave me a window of time in which he would be able to come out. Not only was he able to come out the same day that I called, but Mr. Williams was able to come much earlier than expected. Once he arrived he was able to trouble shoot and diagnose the problem. Mr. Williams was very, very friendly, professional and honest. He was able to answer my husband’s questions and explained what he was doing as he made the repairs. My husband was very happy about that and we were both impressed by the years of experience Mr. Williams had for his age. I have been looking for an electrician for a while now and have decided that I will be using Hands on Electric for all of my future projects. I was very pleased with the work that was done by Mr. Williams and will recommend him to my friends and family when they need of electrical services."

"I recently needed some electrical work done on my home - several of the receptacles had stopped working. I wanted a licensed, insured company, so I contacted several of the electric contractors who were listed on NextDoor, I chose BBA Electric to do the work. Licensed, insured, pleasant to work with, finished on time, and much cheaper than the other estimates. Give them a call at 240.855.7690!"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Ashton, MD

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.
