"If you need a knowledgeable, reliable electrician and want to know the job is done right - this is who you call! 1) They gave me multiple FREE inspections and estimates on homes for which I had a purchase agreement. Each was customized to the circumstances. I never got the sense that I received a "standard" quote and the inspections were always thorough and explained in depth. 2) They know their business. They know Codes and they know which codes are safety issues. 3) They show up on time, every time. 4) They keep you informed 5) They are flexible. When my large project required multiple changes at the 9th hour, they walked through everything with me and took time to understand the scope of work. 6) They made relevant recommendations and suggestions. They thought about things I had not considered, such as the simple need for an outlet in a bathroom that I had not noticed was missing or how one might naturally move through a house and where a switch for a fan vs. light may be helpful. 7) They alerted me to potential problems I might face with their work; e.g. plaster walls sometimes crumble when disturbed for electrical work. 8) They asked my preferences; minimal drywall damage vs. moving fixtures to ensure they align. 9) They accurately predicted the time to complete the work and finished on time. 10) They were careful to secure my home when they left each day 11) They cleaned up when the work was complete. I found no indication that there was any debris left in the attic or basement. All in all, if you want a job done right - pay the pros. Joe Schmo are professionals."

"Our hot tub died around the time of some storms. I just wanted to make sure the electrical system wasn't the cause/was okay. He came out when he said he would, went above and beyond by un-wiring the hot tube. We're in a great place to replace it when we have the money. It was well worth the service charge for the piece of mind. Also, he's really great at explaining how things work. I learn something every time we use him."

"We got a couple quotes to have a GFCI outlet installed in our home. Electric Today charged less than half of our other quote, then offered to install it on the spot when we said we would use his company. He had everything he needed on his truck and in less than an hour, we had our outlet installed when all we expected was another quote. He was friendly, efficient, and professional. Wouldn’t hesitate to call him again or to recommend him. GREAT experience and a very fair price!"

"In the past year, we have hired Cody several times to complete electrical work for us. I can't imagine we would use anyone else at this point for future jobs. Cody has a wealth of knowledge and he was great in guiding us as to the best placement for some new lighting he installed for us. He also ran some new electrical wiring for us into a newly constructed screened in porch and had to maneuver through a VERY tight attic space to get the wiring where it needed to be. He did not complain about it and had a very pleasant attitude every time he spoke with us. His prices were very reasonable and he had a great work ethic to get the jobs done in the timeframes we needed them to be complete. We would HIGHLY recommend Cody to anyone!"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Franklin, IN

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.
