"The RaLo electrician did a great job running new wire to install my outdoor camlight. He also informed me of a number of other issues he noticed and gave me good price to address those issues as well. I definitely recommend their services."

"Called and made appointment. Steve and Dave arrived within the 2 hour window. I was not sure if the fans needed replacing or just the thermostat. They went right to work, diagnosed the problem, explained what was needed and replaced the thermostat. When asked if anything else was needed, I asked them to wire the smoke detector and check the GFI which also needed replacing. Both Steve and Dave were very pleasant, honest and efficient. The cost was reasonable and I will use their service again."

This generator was installed on the side of a house.  The window had to be replaced to allow for the generator to be placed in this location.  The window was made to not open per code.
We installed this 14kW generator to power the whole house.  We used load shed modules to be able to save the customer money by using a smaller generator than would have been needed if we didn't use the load shed modules.

"Kevin Williams was sent to repair problems created by another electrician hired by Kitchen Saver during an expansive kitchen re-face and cabinet installation. Among other things, he re-located an unsightly transformer that had been previously secured to the inside of the first shelf of a main kitchen cabinet to a lower cabinet out of sight. Voila! Then, he re-routed unsightly wiring previously clamped to the far corner of a glass display cabinet so that it was out of sight. These were difficult puzzles to solve, as the new cabinets had already been installed and there was no longer easy access. Kevin was friendly, professional, and experienced! Great job!"

"Kenny is very knowledgeable and very responsive to all questions. I hired him to replace my electrical panel and install a 50 amp circuit. He let me know what was going on through the entire process. Very easy to work with for a good price! I would recommend him and will be calling him for any future electrical jobs."

"I contacted the company for an estimate and was provided a verbal estimate over the phone, followed by a written estimate via email. Scheduling was easy. I called on a Thursday and they were able to schedule my install for the following Monday. The electricians arrived on time, and were very friendly and professional upon our initial greeting. They installed a new chandelier and dimmer in my foyer, and cleaned the work area and disposed of the old light fixture. The electricians ensured I was happy with the lighting placement and job performance prior to leaving. I would definitely recommend this company for your electrical needs and I will be using them for future projects."

"My wife and I hired a previous electrician to make electrical repairs on our rental property that was under contract. Needless to say the job was not done correctly and not to the local code. Once the electrical company determined a valid permit was not filed for the work on the property, they pulled the meter to protect their equipment. A few days later, the local area experienced a tropical storm that proceeded up the coast which flooded our basement due to no power at our sump pumps. We were informed by the buyer's agent when they dropped by the property to check the electrical work. Our current electrician did not effectively communicate with plan check and our electric company. We quickly fired our current electrician and looked for an experienced electrician familiar with the local code. Most of the electricians we called were busy for the next several weeks. I had used Home Advisor before and experienced solid success. C.E. Harris was recommended for the electrical work we needed to have completed. I quickly called Chuck and he immediately returned my phone call. I explained our current scenario and nightmare at our rental property. Chuck had heard of a similar occurrence in one of the local counties. Chuck talked me through what needed to happen and set my mind at ease. Chuck was at the property the following day and I had an estimate of the required work within 24 hours. Chuck explained everything that had to be accomplished in order for the county to pass the service and final inspections. His knowledge was evident as he expertly walked me through the estimate. Although I had to re-accomplish work that had already been performed by the prior electrician, Chuck was on the job the next day and kept me updated on the work being performed. Chuck is a knowledgeable professional that took care of the current and existing electrical issues. Chuck also corrected other minor issues without charging anything in addition. We passed both inspections with no issues and the buyers were able to move into their new home. Chuck from C.E. Harris did an outstanding job surpassing both my wife's and my expectations. I will always call Chuck for future electrical work. I highly recommend Chuck for any type of home electrical work in Southern Maryland. Outstanding, quick and professional service. A++"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Charlotte Hall, MD

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.
