"Daniel from Imperial Electric did an excellent job for us. We had a relatively small issue that he rectified for us very quickly and then did a very thorough inspection of our entire house at our request. He made a number of recommendations to upgrade our old electrical system that were practical, reasonable and in line with current codes."

"Amer was absolutely top notch. He came out in 30 mins on a Saturday morning to take a look at the project- rewire barn, new panel box, pool pump set up. He then came out as the pool was being installed, on his own, to make sure it was going well and to find out info about the pump for his part of the job. He came out a few days later and completed everything perfectly, went above and beyond and made everything aesthetically pleasing. After the job was completed, he then proceeded to walk me through everything he had done and explained why, and even going so far as to explain how my home generator works (weâ re new home owners), as well as upgrade our old dingy barn lights. We already have another project set up with him in for late summer/early fall. Amer communicated wonderfully, completed the job perfectly and went above and beyond. I canâ t recommend him any higher!"

"Mr. Haleem was amazing. Very friendly and knowledgeable. He installed 8 LED Pot lights for me and installed a switch that was previously non existent. He treated my house like his own and cleaned up when he was done. I'd highly recommend him to anyone looking for anything related to electrical work. You will not be disappointed. His prices are VERY competitive. I will be using him 100% of the time going forward."

"The outlet was installed as requested, and the technician was fast and efficient. However, I would have preferred a cleaner-looking finish and better cleanup afterward, as some stripped wires were left behind. Overall, the job was completed, but the final presentation and cleanup could have been better."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Frankfort, IL

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.
