"Mo from Ewing did a very good job. All the work was cleanly done & very tidy & professional. He showed up the day after calling & gave a much more reasonable quote for all the electrical work then Roby Electric did. He was able to fit me in the schedule the next day. & did everything in about 6 hours. If i ever need more work i will definitely call Ewing & will recommend to my neighbors."

"They did good work, but you feel scammed by the process. Waived dispatch fee provides pressure to sign up for discounted rates with 1 year Advantage Plan. They priced whole house surge protection as an add on. I bought but I'd not planned on it. Next time, I'll try to find a small business that just quotes the job at hand and does it without all the upselling. "

"They originally installed my solar panels in 2019. Everything was good until 2023/24 I asked them to come look at roof panels as my roofer said he thought the leak was coming in at the leg is the last panel. I called them said they send someone out on Friday, never turned up. Called again a while later after more rain, ceiling in master bedroom was getting worse. Again no response! 4:5 times they dont turn up, answer calls or texts. This is just shocking to me how a company stays in business!!! I finally found another company after 5 calls I got another company to call me back. They came out but it cost me $2000 to get a leg of panel sealed. They said this is very common and they find either straight after install or about 4 years later it happens and probably more like it. I could not afford more work. There must be something we can all do about these situations. So many complaints on here. Suggestions?"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Concord, NC

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.
