Customers say: Terrific value

"I cannot speak higher about the quality job Ty and Nick did with my extensive home project. Ty gave a very competitive price for the entire project, with no surprise or variable costs to worry about. Do not let his youthful appearance fool you, he is very experienced, and guided me thru every aspect of my project. He asked very insightful questions to make sure he understood my end goals, and was able to steer me in better directions to avoid doing things unnecessarily more costly. During the project a few changes in plan and additional work came up and he was very accommodating to make sure I got the end result i was hoping for. A few lights did not work out like I hoped, and he was more than happy to make adjustments to make sure I got it right. He was truly professional, beyond polite, and example others should follow when it comes to working with home contractors. I will certainly be hiring him again for the next electrical project as I build up my property."

"Hired to do solar/electrical/roof package install. Oversold their services on what they can do for electrical work. Have a pending lawsuit against them for breach of contract. So far they have not answered nor attempted any response for resolution. They will be served with the suit any day now from my attorney. I would not recommend them!"

"Summit Electrical's 2 employees (one journeyman, one aprentice) were prompt, they were clean and well groomed and they brought in a vacuum and a broom! The work was not easy and they had to make adjustments which they did. The job was done very well and they cleaned up the work area nicely. We are very happy with the overall experience: We highly recommend them. Thank you."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Camas, WA

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.
