"There were two issues to be addressed. One entire household circuit was dead, and some old wiring needed upgrading to code. They never found what the cause of the dead circuit was, but they were able to work around it or bypass it so that it works now. Upgrading was satisfactorily done."

"We were desperate to get help with our electrical issues, and no other company had any availability for days or even weeks. Mr. Electric sent someone out immediately. Josh, the technician, was so helpful. He took the time to listen to everything, was unfailingly polite, checked every outlet, and gave us the answers we needed. I can't recommend this company enough."

"I hired Paul to fix a dumb waiter electric motor in my garage that had been previously unfixable in 4 other hands. The motor jumped the track and would not work. I was familiar with Paul's excellent work on a steam shower and thought he may be able to tackle this job. He and Foster, his side kick, tackled it beautifully. They originally were stumped but rather than quitting as others had done they kept pondering the issues. Going up to the attic (where the pulleys were anchored) back down to the garage. They found it "interesting". They ultimately fixed it and did a beautiful job! The process reminded me of something I had read about Einstein when asked if he thought he was the smartest person he knew. He said no but he might be one of the more curious. Paul and Foster were the most curious of the people I had previously hired and I cannot recommend them highly enough!"

"After completion of our bathroom remodel, we now literally give tours to our friends and neighbors. It's spacious and much safer with the ADA layout and new shower concept. Everybody finds the bright new look to be an investment and an enhancement. It adds value but is safer and that's most important. I next plan for my deck to be torn down and rebuilt and will again use Palmetto Renovations only. I have projects and they have expertise."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Chapin, SC

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.
