"I am new to this whole Home Advisor thing and after I was applaud by other companies I went for it. Tom Brown from Brown Bothers set up an estimate with great timing and was early to the meeting. He was very thorough and even commented on issues he saw that were dangerous. 2 bids were sent (one for just house grounding and one for whole electrical panel replacement and grounding). We went with both and he was early again to the install. A payment plan was created as I am disabled and limited budget. I am in my 50's so I want to know all I can about what is up with my house. Tom was extremely knowledgeable and personable. He was open to me to ask questions and learn as well. Plus while he worked we were able to just chew the fat without hesitation of the work. Tom is the soul example of a perfectionist. The old circuit breaker was a horrific mess!! By the time it was all done it looked like the house was built THAT DAY with everything so neat and tidy I could see the excellence in his work. And his personality showed not only professionalism but also down to earth with a good heart (not seen very much nowadays). Now onto the real heart of what a great professional and man Tom is! My wife and I had an emergency come up and we were hit financially. I addressed this to Tom and he and I set up a time to make the next payment when I could. He could have said no and demanded the next payment as per scheduled but he showed compassion and understanding, bringing this old bear of a guy to his knees with tears of happiness to be treated with care and respect. Would I refer Tom and his company to anyone in need? The answer is a resounding YES!! You want a job well done and have a great guy to chat with then call Brown Bothers. They will treat you right!!"

"Recently had Tony with Th3 Electric do electrical work for us, including wiring/panel upgrade work, and we were extremely happy with the experience. Tony was professional, knowledgeable, honest, and took the time to explain everything clearly. The work was done efficiently and safely, and everything looks great. It’s hard to find someone reliable these days, but Tony definitely takes pride in his work. Highly recommend Th3 Electric for any electrical needs!"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Forest Grove, OR

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.
