"After an extensive process of having different contractors evaluate my home & submit their estimates for the installation of a Bosch tankless boiler/water heater combination unit as well as new baseboard heating, I selected AStar Heating & Cooling. Their staff impressed me from start to finish. Initially, I met Aaron who provided a thorough explanation of how the work would be done, offered other options that I did not know of or considered at the time, and provided a fair estimate that was similar to most of the other contractors. Next, when the time came for the projects to be completed, the technicians, Robert & Trevor, were on point. They always arrived in a timely manner & started working right away. They worked efficiently & quickly to get the projects done in the time frame promised. However, they did not rush, they took pride in their work & made every effort to make sure the work was completed neatly & done properly, as they thoroughly tested out the systems to make sure their were no issues/problems in their setup & performance. They also thoroughly answered my questions about the installation of the new systems as they went about their work. At the end of each workday, they made sure to clean up the job site & were very mindful in not dirtying my new floors by wearing plastic booties whenever they had to walk over them. The Bosch tankless water heater/boiler combination unit has been working without a hitch. I barely notice the difference in the time lag of receiving hot water in comparison to the old 40 gallon tank water heater I previously used. Overall, I highly recommend AStar Heating & Cooling. High quality work done high quality professionals. All of them put my mind at ease on what was a very necessary home improvement project."

"Upgraded electrical panel, ran 6 new outlets. Very happy with the results. Asked is a very fair reasonable electrician, answered all our questions, was very responsive, cleaned up and did more than we even asked for. Bottom line I would hire him again in a second. Thx again Alex!"

"My husband dealt with 2 W's...He said they arrived early (nice!) and did the job- replacing an anode rod- quickly and efficiently. The electrician that came with him was able to complete that work as well as additional jobs that we had- installing a florescent fixture and adding outlets in several locations.. Overall we are pleased and would recommend 2 W's to others."

"The florescent light fixture in my office is finally gone, and it was Paul and his team that defeated it!   I am a graduate student, so I spend a significant amount of time every day reading and writing.  Even though I had spent a lot of money turning the basement of my condo into an awesome n***-den, I ended up doing most of my work in the living room because the fluorescent light in that basement was just awful.
I called Paul at Exquisite Construction to see what he might recommend.  He had been out to my house before to offer an estimate on popcorn ceiling removal (something I am still going to hire him to do once I build the project budget back up).  From the start, Paul and his wife made a positive impression.  They were friendly, engaged, and genuinely excited about hearing and sharing ideas about my house.  The two of them are exactly like an HGTV show, just without the cameras. He took a look at the space and we kicked some ideas around.  I was leaning more towards installing a new "character" light fixture.  Paul recommended LED lights that sat flush to the ceiling, as they would provide more/better light (I think Paul recognized that my desire to make the space look cool was overpowering my desire to solve my initial lighting problem, haha).  We decided to do BOTH things and the result is just amazing.
Paul--as he did when he offered the quote on the popcorn removal--gave several different options and prices on the spot.  For $825, he and his team installed a new, bigger electrical box to handle the expanded lighting.  They moved it to a different point in the ceiling (to center the new "character" light fixture over my table-desk, which is the central feature of the office).  They installed the four LED lights and installed two dimmer switches, so the LEDs and the character light could be set/dimmed independently of each other.  Finally, they repaired the parts of the ceiling that they needed to go through in order to do the wiring.  They did all of this in essentially less than a day (they came at noon yesterday to accommodate my schedule, as I work nights on Monday and a Tuesday morning might kill me, haha.  They were able to do almost all of the work in 4 and a half hours.  They came back first thing this morning to wrap up the ceiling repair, which took them about an hour). 
The end result is that my office looks amazing.  The new lighting, and the added control via the dimmer switches, transformed the space so much more than I ever anticipated, and that's all down to Paul and his team for both the quality of their work and their willingness to share ideas based on their experience.  I knew that I wanted to replace a light fixture.  Paul knew that it could be even better than that, and he made it happen.
I bought my condo in 2013, and I've been looking for a "go-to" contractor--someone who could handle different kinds of projects, did good work, and most importantly--someone that seemed trust-worthy.  Paul and his team are all of those things, and I hope to keep them busy with regular projects over the next few years.

"Principio Electirc was the BEST service/home repair business that we have ever dealt with! They were exceedingly prompt to respond, very knowledgable, professional, thorough, easy to interact with, and complete. Two other recommended electric businesses had unsuccessfully attempted repairs on our particluar problem before Principio. Principio correctly diagnosed, repaired, and monitored our electrical problem in record time for minimal cost. I will choose them again without hesitation not only for the quality of their work, but also for the kind of people they employ! (This is totally honest since Service Magic was my only link to them!)"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Dansville, NY

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.
