"Had GLP perform a panel upgrade as well as install a level 2 EV charger in the garage. Carlos was extremely responsive and accessible. Very helpfully walked us through every step of the process from estimate to completion, always explaining the work he was doing and answering our many questions. Then, the work itself was high quality. Also very friendly in person. Highly recommend."

"Outdoor electrical outlet kept tripping the GFCI frequently but with no apparent pattern. Couldn't tell if it was the items plugged into the GFCI, the GFCI itself, another GFCI on the same line, or something else. The technician was very methodical in his approach and was able to identify the problem as a bad underground line between two of the GFCIs. Not an easy one to solve. The wires were inside metal conduit but somehow water had gotten inside the conduit. Once the cause was determined, he knew exactly what needed to be done. The technician was professional, easy to talk to and did an excellent job. Pricing was very reasonable. I am very pleased with the work and would call them again for future electrical needs."

"Start to finish the A To Z Electrical Company is the best electrical team we have hired. Millie is such a pleasure to work with. She is efficient, courteous, and friendly. She helps to make things work seamlessly. Bob Iovino understood exactly what needed to be done and did everything in a professional manner. He squeezed me in although he had a very busy schedule. He is courteous, friendly, and in no time he had the job done and it was done right. It truly was a pleasure doing business with him and the company. We recommend them highly."

"Daniel addressed a not so straightforward switch replacement that I had botched. Not only did have to install it right but also had to diagnose and replace the circuit breaker in the panel. He also had to further diagnose a wire that had been melted and address that as well. He showed great problem solving skills, cleaned up and was extremely professional and friendly. Even though the job took much longer than expected, he still only charged what he had initially stated. Would hire again."

"Dean inspected my water heater and gave me several options or fixing or replacing it. I decided to replace the old one and was surprised at how fast the new one was installed. Dean was very helpful, polite, and professional. Anything he moved he put back and he cleaned up afterwards. I would highly recommend Precision Today!"

"Cris Electric is awesome. Proficient, knowledgeable and efficient. I learned so much in a short time about my home electrical wiring. I thought about the headache trying to understand why my circuit had not tripped but lights were inoperable in some parts of the house. By process of elimination Cris Electric found the source of my electrical problem. I am forever thankful to him for his professionalism and expertise."

"Amer was absolutely top notch. He came out in 30 mins on a Saturday morning to take a look at the project- rewire barn, new panel box, pool pump set up. He then came out as the pool was being installed, on his own, to make sure it was going well and to find out info about the pump for his part of the job. He came out a few days later and completed everything perfectly, went above and beyond and made everything aesthetically pleasing. After the job was completed, he then proceeded to walk me through everything he had done and explained why, and even going so far as to explain how my home generator works (weâ re new home owners), as well as upgrade our old dingy barn lights. We already have another project set up with him in for late summer/early fall. Amer communicated wonderfully, completed the job perfectly and went above and beyond. I canâ t recommend him any higher!"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Berwyn, IL

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.
