"From estimate, to selection of The Juice Company, to scheduling, they made the entire process painless. Had 2 15 amp "peanut" breakers installed to replace an existing breaker and establish a new circuit, and 2 new outlets installed. We also had low voltage network cable roughed in so I could terminate it later, and everything was done not only properly, but quickly. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing electrical work done in the South Sound region."

"We don't know how the end of the job and the price will turn out as we had a few extra's to do. They guys were very professional, courteous, and took care not to make a mess even wearing shoe booties each time they left and entered the house. We have had some inspection issues but that was not their fault. Overall I would highly recommend this company."

"Matt and John are the name, face and brains behind this business. Very responsive. Prompt initial assessment and quote. Rapid turn around to do the job after supplies available. They replaced a breaker disconnect box to a spa as the one we had was not adequate, needed a 50 AMP and had to re-wire the wiring from box to spa, They are very knowledgeable regarding code requirements, safety and overall knowledge is exceptional. I was impressed with their service. I highly recommend them as an expert for electrical needs, big or small."

"I’m so grateful to Nathan, he upgraded my old panel and turned a huge worry into total peace of mind. He showed up right on time, walked me through every step so I actually understood what was happening, and finished faster than I expected without cutting a single corner. He even swept up every speck of dust. Nathan’s not just skilled, he genuinely cares. If you need an electrician who treats your home like his own, call Nathan. Five stars isn’t enough!"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Federal Way, WA

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.
