"The work was spread out over 3 distinct visits to complete all of the work.  All of the electrical rough in for wiring was done on the first two days.  The last day was a few weeks later after the drywall went up.  On the last visit all boxes, receptacles, and final tie ins to the breaker were done.  The work done was excellent and I would recommend Curt from Phase 2 for any electrical work needed around a house.

"I had a fluorescent ceiling lamp that was malfunctioning. I had purchased a new one but was neither accomplished or confident that I could replace it. The gentleman that Essential Electric sent out was able to diagnose the problem and replace the light quickly. I will contact them in the future with any electrical work I need done."

"The whole project went extremely well.  We are delighted with the results! Todd and his partner Dave were both excellent to work with.  This was our first bathroom remodel so Todd walked us through all the details and offered suggestions where we were unsure.  He is a stickler for quality.  The new tile is perfectly laid - no imperfections or glitches.  He and Dave take great pride in their work and pay attention to details.  Todd was also very accommodating as we worked through some changes.  He and Dave were always punctual, took great care with cleanliness in our house, and removed all old material promptly.   
I found T M Tile & Stone on Angie's List with very positive comments about Todd's quality of work.  I want to add my high praise for the job on our bathroom remodel.  I highly recommend them for future work and plan to hire them for other tile work in our house in the future.

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Auburn, MI

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.
