"Over a two day period Moir Electric fixed a broken light switch and exhaust fan in our bathroom; fixed bad wiring in a ceiling fan in our den and the lights are working again on the fan because of this; installed a back porch light and light switch; and fixed a light fixture in our basement. The back porch light fixture they installed is so beautiful. Bobby was great to work with and offered a really great and convenient way to pay while I was at work and unable to be there when the work was completed. The young man who did the work was very kind and respectful and did a phenomenal job. He even did the den on day one when he didn't originally come out to do that room. He said he had time to do both the bathroom and den. I was expecting to pay a lot, but surprised by how much I paid for all the work they did. I HIGHLY recommend Moir Electric. They arrived when they said they would, offered better than fair pricing, and did a phenomenal job. Color me impressed. I will definitely use them again."

"Juan was on time and very professional. Did an excellent job adding a sub panel for a generator and even correct a code violation that was found in the main box when he opened it up. The time estimate and price quot where both right on the money. He also did a great clean up job when the work was finished. Would recommend him to anyone needing some electrical work."

"I did not hire Knee s electrical service because I was quoted for a 22 KW generator at $11,000. I had a suspicion that I did not really need that much for what I was wanting but planned to get three quotes before I hired someone for the project. There were two men sent out to my home. They stood in the kitchen and plugged information into a tablet with a generator sizing tool on it and told me I needed the 22 kw. They did not look around the house, or explain anything to me about how the process worked. I ended up going with another company who was very communicative and informative and purchased a 16 kw generator and with installation and everything it was $6570.68. I feel comfortable with my decision to go with the other company and would not recommend Knee s electrical service for a whole home generator installation."

"Excellent service. Whoever wired my trailer before had my whole trailer wired into one 15 amp. the tech went above and beyond and saved my weekend after working 60 hours in the 106 degree weather. 10/10 recommend. AND a live human answered the phone, not the automated answering service which no one’s wants to deal with when their home is 86 degrees inside."

"the gentleman who did the work was very polite & patiently answered my questions. He also offered to fix a situation that had nothing to do with what he was here for. It just took a couple min. but I appreciate the above & beyond the call. Those are the things that stand out. If I need any electrical work again I will call Sterling electric."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Columbia City, IN

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.
