"Anyone looking for quality electricians, do not hesitate to contact Epic Solar & Electric! Just had them replace and upgrade our old Federal Pacific panel, run a sub panel to the garage, and bring everything up to current code. They were on budget, on time, and great to work with. Highly recommended!"

"TJ was a great electrician to work with. He’s punctual and professional with affordable prices. He’s my go to guy for electrical issues and he even helped with troubleshooting my solar panels issue when another company messed up my install from two years ago. I didnt even know it but he caught it and fixed it. Super impressed."

"I would highly recommend hiring Marcos. He is exceptionally reliable, honest, and responsive. He understood how to address all the various requests, from installing lighting and ceiling fans to repairing multiple light issues around the house. I fully trusted his assessments and he efficiently tackled each project, even returning a second time with the additional materials we needed. He proved to understand the issues much clearer than a larger company I previously consulted, who failed to identify a wet electrical wire and simply rold me to replace a bulb. I will be calling on Marcus for all future electrical needs!"

"Excellent experience with Brook Forest Electric. It’s rare to find a local team that truly understands the high stakes of industrial operations, but they nailed it. We brought them in for some specialized troubleshooting on our controllers and a MUCH needed panel upgrade at our facility. They were professional, stayed focused on our safety protocols, great at communication, and kept our uptime a priority so we didn't lose our valuable production time, especially with us being a smaller local business. I was so impressed with their commercial work that I actually had them out to my house for a residential fix last week. Even on a smaller scale, they brought that same industrial-level precision and attention to detail. It’s great to have a dependable, locally owned specialist, and I highly recommend them for both your business and beyond! Thank you!"

"First-rate service with a personal touch! Itâ s hard to find this kind of care and attention anymore when looking for home repairs. We needed our roof redone and a bunch of electrical repairs. Redrocks Roof and Solar worked with us every step of the way to make sure we were completely satisfied while respecting our budget. They also worked diligently with our insurance company to make sure that nothing was left out of our estimate. Robert and Brooke definitely go the extra mile on everything!"

"Overall the remodel went very well and the finished space is better than we hoped. The staff of High Country Home Improvement, and the plumbing and electrical subs were efficient, skilled, and respectful. From demolition, through framing, drywall, tile, painting and finish carpentry High Country's (Kyle, Cody, Brandon efforts were very good. The project had some unplanned challenges, which were handled promptly and without argument. Even a neighbor commented on the politeness of the workers."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Empire, CO

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.
