"The fire department recommended that we call an electrician when we experienced an odd burning smell in the house. I called Mr. Electric of Douglasville and talked to Lamont who was polite, professional, and patiently provided details on the inspection process. He was upfront with the pricing and scheduled an appointment for us the same day. When his senior technician could not come out, he came instead. The inspection did not find an electrical issues but because Lamont was extremely thorough, he noticed that there was a stronger than normal smell of gas in the attic and recommended we call a heating/air company to check it out. We did, and we found out that there was a small gas leak (!) coming from the pipe that leads to the furnace! If Lamont had not been so conscientious, we may not have known until it was too late. Not to mention, the fire department had just inspected the attic a few hours before but they did not notice or speak of any smell of gas. SO, THANK YOU LAMONT!"

"Wayne ran Electricity outside the house to my wood shop and installed the electrical panel there. He was very professional and even wired a lighting fixture for me. He also didn't mind me asking basic questions of which he showed me the answers to. He showed up when he said he would and went above and beyond the job. I highly recommend him for your next electrical project."

"I had an amazing experience with Kustom Electrics and can’t recommend them enough. I had been dealing with ongoing electrical issues in both my closet and bathroom, and Kevin came out and immediately put me at ease. He was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and friendly, and took the time to explain what was going on in a way that actually made sense. What impressed me most was how quickly he was able to diagnose and fix the problem after it had been an ongoing issue. You could tell right away that he really knows his craft and takes pride in his work. Everything was handled efficiently, safely, and with great attention to detail. If you’re looking for an electrical company you can trust, Kustom Electrics and especially Kevin is the way to go. I’m so grateful for the great service and will definitely be using them again in the future!"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Buchanan, GA

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.
