"Brandon Flemings was great to deal with during the work he performed for me. He and his assistant were very professional and thorough with explaining the work they performed. They arrived at my house at the time they said they would come and their estimate for doing the job was reasonable and accurate. I definitely will hire them for my future electrical work."

"I am one very Satisfied customer! Chris and Debra of Galloway Electrical arrived early, took a quick look at what needed to be done, provided a very reasonable price that I accepted and grabbed their tools and went to work. They were very thorough, kept us informed of the progress, explained everything and even provided recommendations for future upgrades. Chris and Debra were very professional, courteous, respectful of our property and a pleasure to talk to. My wife and I were very happy with the final product and will definitely hire Galloway Electrical for any future electrical needs! A big "Thank You" to both Chris and Debra!!!"

"Zachary installed 4 wafer led lights and 2 dimmer switches. From start to finish Zach was on point. The light placements, wire cleanly run, and cleaned up after the job was complete He was very reasonable on price, his prices are more than fair. I plan to use Zach for all my electrical needs. Can’t recommend him enough."

"I recently experienced excellent customer service and wanted to commend the professionalism and dedication of the individuals involved. Initially, a Galloway electrician was scheduled to address an issue at my home. However, after nearly two hours, he informed me that he had another appointment and left without completing the job. In contrast, the team from B & F Electric went above and beyond to ensure the problem was fixed. They stayed until the job was done, demonstrating exceptional commitment and expertise. Their efforts not only resolved the issue but also showcased their dedication to customer satisfaction. Thank you, B & F Electric, for your outstanding service. Your professionalism and thoroughness are greatly appreciated!"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Bethany Beach, DE

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.
