"I booked Foster Electric of Chattanooga on 10/04/24 to install dimmer switches and mount my big-screen TVs on the wall on 10/19/24. I paid a 50% deposit ($500+) a couple of weeks ago for them to come out on 10/19/24, but they were a no-call, no-show."

"Would not recommend Mr. Electric; they will try to scam and overcharge you. My girlfriend called them for a fried breaker and the technician tried to upsell and convince us to replace the ENTIRE electrical panel and additional unnecessary fixes for over $14,000. We called a different company for a second opinion and they assured us that the panel did not need a complete replacement to get things up and running, and only recommended a few replacements for safety measures. We were able to get the initial situation fixed the same day through the second company, all covered under the other companies ‘free second opinion promotion’ they were running. The thing is, we would have been willing to get some of the recommended safety work done, and still plan on doing it with a different company, but the Mr.Electric tech representative was pushy and dishonest, and tried to get us to finance a way more expensive fix than needed. I don’t frequently leave reviews, and I know it’s nearly impossible these days to find a company that isn’t trying to upsell or push you into something, but this is one company that should be avoided at all costs."

"My kitchen floor was severely warped and had 30+ years of layered board and vinyl. Brandon and Scott from Turn to Us showed up on time and began working immediately, They repaired and replaced the floor in less that 2 days and it is gorgeous! I could not have been more pleased with the timing, their attitudes and craftsmanship. I will definitely be using them again."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Cleveland, TN

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.
