"My job went very smoothly. The costs were upfront and materials were all new and as specified by my request. He even largely honored a year-old job estimate he had written & signed himself (see picture). The only reason for the higher final price was the parts upgrades from Square D Homeline to Square D QO components. Jim is a Master Electrician and an active duty military veteran: it showed in his knowledge of the job and his overall work ethic. He's a very punctual and honest guy. Great conversation as well! You won't be oversold or outright lied to about what you *really* need for your job. Would definitely hire Jim Manges again."

"I felt the project went well, technicians were knowledgeable and task oriented. This was an all-day event, and a bit beyond - they ran into a snag at the end due to the aged electrical in place. Problems resolved.Cleanup primarily done by the junior tech was pretty good, although several areas were missed with wood shavings and wire debris left behind.Overall, I felt they went above and beyond to ensure outlets near water sources were updated. Company was responsive on the phone and did followup. Have already recommended Streb to a neighbor."

"I had an estimate done on some electric work, and James Pinson did an excellent job. He was very thorough, clear with his suggestions, and the pricing was very competitive. Based on James's visit and the estimate he provided, I chose Mr. Electric to complete the work."

"Kyle was a professional from start too finish. He patiently answered all my questions and gave me advice on what the best practices are for todayâ s electrical standards. My panel was a rats nest and he corrected it by putting in a new box in. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs electrical work performed. I plan on having him back for additional work. Thanks again Kyle!"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Elyria, OH

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.
