"Several years ago I hired ESV to install new panel lighting in my crawlspace, prior to it being encapsulated; the electrician worked in a dirt surround environment, installed (4) 4-foot lights, and ran a separate line to the panel box. I was impressed with the work ethic and professionalism of ESV's electrician. Years later I requested a line-item quote (by room) for re-wiring my entire house. Dan provided a succinct quote and coordinated the work permit; he and his crew re-wired each room individually (which fit both our schedules per room). This quote also included a new, updated panel, with Dan working with the electric company to shut down power to the house for panel replacement. I definitely trust Dan and ESV with all my electrically needs."

"A Plus Electric installation of my EcoFlow Smart Home Panel (SHP) was outstanding! They took great interest in learning about the new product and then completing the install as the manufacturer recommended. In addition, the inspection was seamless and encountered zero issues/challenges. Go with A+ Electric for great service!"

"It’s not often these days that I come across a service whose value far outweighs the cost, but this was my recent experience working with Steve and Jeremy of Cody Malone Services who installed recessed lighting and ceiling fans on all three levels of my townhouse. From requesting the initial estimate through the completion of the work, the process was easy and seamless. Jeremy arrived exactly as scheduled each day and worked diligently throughout the day to complete the work as timely and professionally as possible. He helped me create a vision for the layout of the lighting and willingly made adjustments when I changed my mind along the way until I was happy….no questions asked. His clean up process left no evidence that any work had been done in my house except for the beautiful new lighting that I absolutely love. I highly recommend Cody Malone Services for your next electrical/lighting project. It was a pleasure working with them, and I look forward to doing it again on the next project I dream up for my house as I am confident they will make my vision a reality."

"Ortiz electrical did an excellent job diagnosing my electrical issues. Once the issues were diagnosed, they offered a reasonable price to complete the repairs. They completed the repairs efficiently while demonstrating what was being repaired and why. The bonus, they cleaned up their mess afterwards. I will save Ortiz electrical services card and definitely call them for any future electrical repairs."

Customers say: Quality work

"We had a new electric panel put in, multiple ceiling fans and some other wires run in the house. Everyone was very nice and professional. Their timeline and price was accurate and fast. All permits and inspection work was scheduled by them and done quickly! I can't say enough good things and any future electric work will be done by them."

"The technician who came to my house was friendly, but his
work was adequate at best. He left debris around the areas where he worked and
claimed to be unable to install a bathroom vent fan (something the next company
I called did easily), but he did install the floodlights and porch light.
However, he hung the porch light too low (it no longer
cleared the screen door when opened) and damaged part of the porch ceiling. He
didn?t report the damage to us, so I discovered it later.
I contacted the company and the manager first tried to tell
me that the tech hung the light at the same height as the old one. The light is
on a chain and the height is easily adjustable; the tech left the screen door
open to avoid hitting the light, again leaving an issue to be discovered after
he was gone. He knew it was too low, he just didn?t bother to adjust the
length.
More troublesome than that, the manager offered to, at most,
send someone out to glue back the layers of plywood that the tech had torn out
in mounting the new light, making a point to tell me ?we don?t do any patching
or painting.? Only when I said that his proposed solution was inadequate did he
agree to come out and look at it. After he saw it, he agreed to have someone come
to patch and paint it (something that two days before he told me was just not
possible).
Now here we are nearly two months later and the repair is
still not complete. The initial coat of patch compound is there, but the
sanding and painting remains to be done. Nor have I had any contact from the company
to explain the delay, let alone apologize. Granted the weather has been bad for
some of that time, but nowhere near all of it.
A business that cares about the quality of its work will
rush to put right any damage they inadvertently cause, and offer a sincere
apology along with the needed remediation. Kolb has shown me nothing but
indifference and ? grudgingly and only when pushed ? a minimal effort to
provide an easy repair.

UPDATE: On the day this review posted, the handyman returned to finish the repairs. He completed them quite well, leaving the porch ceiling even better than it had been. He also explained the personal circumstances that had delayed him. While I still would have liked an email or phone call to explain the delay (it has the effect of letting the customer know you haven't forgotten), I am satisfied with the final outcome."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Dumfries, VA

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.
