"Very responsive business and communicated every step of the way. From what he diagnosed I had a bad wire in the ceiling of the garage that shut my breaker off and wouldnâ t reset. I had no lights or plugs in the basement for days as I tried to figure it out myself. He came in and was easily able to diagnose, fix, and get it all back up minus the one plug that relies on the one dead wire. Iâ ll be putting that in since Iâ m taking my ceiling down anyways. He has all the experience needed and professionalism a master electrician is. Definitely will hire again and will recommend to anyone who needs an electrician."

"This was the second job I hired ESC for, the first was a hot tub hookup, and this one wasn't a simple one: install a generator hook up that bypassed only some of my critical circuits to the generator, while leaving the rest of the house on the grid. This required a pretty complex panel with multiple switches and breakers. He did a neat and tidy job and was in and out in about 3 hours! He does the work alone, showed up on time, does a timely, high-quality job and is friendly and considerate to my needs, as a COVID-19 Locked down, WFH customer and he also worked with me on the quote, to get the number where I needed it to be. Kevin *IS* his business, meaning he does the jobs by day and the and invoicing and estimates by night. As he told me: he wants the work but, working on jobs all day doesn't leave much time for getting back to quote request and questions. I think he could do a better job of communicating that up front (why he took a slight ding on my customer service rating) but ultimately I was really glad I waited him out. In short, I'd definitely recommend ESC for your household electrical work, just be patient with his getting back to you. I will likely hire him again."

"I had a small electrical fire on a Saturday from out dated cloth wire. These guys showed up got it fixed to where my house was safe and came back on a Sunday to get it 100 percent done rewiring my out door lights for my front door. Amazing professional work. They came back a little later and re wiring my entire house for me new panel new wires handled the permit. I can’t say enough about their work and professionalism I have no issue leaving them a key to work while I’m not home. Again amazing quality work"

"I wish I hired him to inspect my home before buying, as he was able to catch a lot of issues missed by my inspector. He quickly came to the house and fixed my dryer's faulty electrical wiring. I plan to use him again for many other projects I have planned. Very happy with his service. He even gives a military discount :)"

"Hiram is awesome! Super friendly guy who knows what he is doing and appears to be capable of anything electrical. He is very punctual, knowledgeable and does great work. I hired him first to replace our old electric panel and he did a great job. Weeks later I had him back for "rough in" work on our new kitchen and baths project. Everything is wired very neat and clean and will be having him back at another later date to drop in lights through our attic into the upstairs ceilings of our new to us old home. (1800's) He's reasonable and works efficiently. There is no other electrician for us now. He's ruined us for hiring anyone else. haha. Just seriously good work at reasonable rates. You wont go wrong hiring him. HIGHLY recommend him."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Dayville, CT

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.
