Customers say: Quality work

"They contacted me within an hour of my request and explained the procedure for dealing with the electrical that had been pulled down from the house by a tree during the 3/2 storm. Very easy to work with and they were there every step of the way. Came out the next morning took care of the work needed, charged a very fair price and he then went to town hall to contact wiring inspector who came out 30 minutes later. Everything went smoothly thanks to Eric's overseeing the entire process. Wouldn't hesitate to hire again. Very happy to have found Sylvia Electric!"

"Pedro did an awesome job adding a sub-panel and wiring our hot water tank. He was so easy to contact and was extremely helpful when we called him to see how soon he could do the job. He came the same day and told us as soon as the hot water tank was installed to call him and he would be there the next day. His work was outstanding and reasonable. His personality is awesome. He will be the only electrician I will ever call."

"The electrician was great in spite of the fact that the job I needed done was not described at all accurately by Home Advisor. It was described as replacing the electric panel. The job was installing under counter LED lights UNDER FIVE KITCHEN CABINETS!"

"Mr Welles called me back after second call, a few days after initial call. he came out on day we agreed on 2 days later. I left a detailed note as he was only there when no one was home. He replaced the breakers w / old but functioning breakers (they don't make them anymore). He took care of the immediate problem and did take a brief look at 2 bathroom light fixtures and discussed the problem of our pool light shorting out every time we turned it on. He suggested that we have the pool company recheck the light fixture which would require pool being emptied a good bit. When we asked if he could help us find outside electrical circuit servicing pool light, he briefly looked around and told us it would be more useful if we cleared alot of the overgrowth of bushes to save money it would take for him to labor through (as in clear the clutter before the cleaners come in so they can do their job). As it turned out, we drastically cut back the shrubs and the outside electrical lights only to find the electrical circuit in the small building our heater and pool pump was in. It was blocked from obvious view until we had the defunct heater removed and there the circuit was on the back wall. There was not the in lawn setup we had been told to look for by people before Mr Welles was involved.. We did not pursue the matter of the bathroom fixtures. The main point is that he did take care of the main problem adequately, w/i 4 days of initial phone inquiry. His first hour of service fee seemed high at $150, subsequent hours I believe are $100 /hour. I would recommend him and would use his services in the future."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Cuttyhunk, MA

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.
