"We had a great experience with Mark and his team. Mark was quick to respond to our request for a quote and came back with a reasonable quote for our 200 amp upgrade.I also came away feeling like he had a solid plan for dealing with some of the quirks of our house. I also had to reschedule this large job and Mark was able to accommodate that. Luis and Diego performed the work and they were absolutely fantastic. Friendly and professional at the same time, they performed high quality work and kept us in the loop the whole way. We also had a separate sub panel upgraded and wiring put in place for an EV charge. Everything came out working well and looking great. It was a pleasure having them take care of the project for us. I would definitely recommend Ellenwood Electric and will not hesitate to call them again for any of our future electrical needs."

Customers say: Quick response

"Anthony was very attentive to my project on an old building. He sought out a safe and viable solution to change out an old fuse box and relocate with a new breaker box. He was quick with a response to my request, inspection and quickly gave a solution with a quote. Once I accepted, he scheduled my work right away. He was also prompt on the day of installation and did the work professionally and quickly. I recommend A & A Electric and I would even recommend Anthony to my family and friends. - Pastor Jeff"

"Mike at MDL electrical went above and beyond the call of duty. We were facing a potential major electrical issue during a very busy evening in the middle of service. He responded to the call and even took the time to stop and check out the issue to ensure our minds were put at ease. He came back the following day promptly and repaired the situation with efficiency and ease. We would highly recommend MDL & Mike and take comfort in knowing we have a reliable electrician to call on! Thank you so much Mike! We appreciate you! Molly & Living Roots Winery Crew"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Canandaigua, NY

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.
