"They were the only company to respond quickly get me a quote. All the other companies listed near me on angies list were heavily booked or gave me a quote site unseen that I felt was extremely high. Scott came in and inspected the site before hand and gave me a fairly priced quote. We scheduled a date that had to be moved a few times because of weather. That isn't their fault as the install was outside. Eventually we got a good day and Scott came with another tech and got it all wired up and tested quickly. It is working perfectly and I haven't had any issues what so ever."

"Jared is an absolute professional, I would recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, knowledgeable and courteous electrician. Jared was hired as the electrician to wire up my basement remodeling project. He is very knowledgeable and took the time to explain everything he was doing and why so I could better understand the job at hand. He has been back to my house a few other times for smaller projects as well."

"Matt was very responsive, quick to meet me at the job site, gave me an excellent price, did the work on time and in a very professional manner. The electrical inspector of the town remarked on the quality of the job which was a rather big job installing and upgrading our full service panel. I already plan to hire him again for some future work."

"Cotti-Johnson was superb. We had long wanted a permanent generator attached to our house but delayed due to the hassle (buying a generator and then finding all the separate contractors needed to do the electrical and gas work). Cotti-Johnson was one-stop shopping. They did it all, including arranging for the final inspections. They responded to our inquiry right away and within weeks, our generator was fully installed. They also upgraded our electrical panel (long overdue). Kudos to Eric for assessing our needs and E. J. and his co-workers for their efficient and excellent work in installing both the generator and electrical panel."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Fall River, MA

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.
