"Daniel inspected the existing electrical issue (no 110v power behind new range) and offered options. After some discussion we chose his recommended solution and he completed the electrical system changes quickly. I was pleased by the quality, quick, professional work."

"Dave is a true professional. Late in the day I requested an appointment to deal with an erratic electrical circuit in my home, and he emailed me a response so he would not disturb me with a phone call. He called the next morning and scheduled a time that was convenient for me later in the day. Rather than using parts he had on hand to just get the job done, he went and bought new parts that matched my system and included that time in the minimum labor charge. He also took the time to explain exactly what he had done. I will definitely call Dave again if I need an electrician."

"Itâ s too bad these star ratings donâ t go to 10 because thatâ s what this company deserves. We had a complicated project that needed to be done fast, This company responded back to many texts and emails promptly. They came all the way to Incline to do a project within a few days of us requesting it. It is a father, son team they were very courteous, came and got the job done for an extremely reasonable price, we will use this company again."

"Todd is great.  He's punctual, creative, friendly, fairly-priced, professional and very capable.  I've had some lingering projects for years, and every time I consulted a "professional", they never came up with a complete solution and usually never followed through with a bid.  Todd took his time to figure out exactly what to do, who to use for each segment of the job, what to charge, etc.  He always kept in touch and he even did some of the work himself.  It felt great to find a contractor I can trust and I'll definitely recommend Reno Renovators to friends and use them again for future projects.  All the subs he used were professional, courteous and careful not to leave nails or other hazards around for our kids.  I never felt uncomfortable at all with all the people who came and went in our home.  I give Reno Renovators five stars!

"Overall a great experience, the system on the vacation home is working great! Jake helped guide us through the solar buying process and effectively explained all the benefits without pressuring us into buying anything we weren’t comfortable with. Definitely would work with him again."

"AHS is ok. They cover repairs of most everything under the roof of your house. The companies that contract with them are not always the best. You call AHS with the issue, they send a fax to the repair company and give you the contact info. If they don't contact you within 24 hours, you call them. Sometimes they answer, sometimes they don't. When they arrive (usually three days or so later), they service the item. if it has issues within the 90 days, you call AHS again, they are sent out with no charge. If the serviceman decides the unit is unrepairable, AHS will allow you to choose a replacement from their listing (usually not as good as what you have) they will install and remove your old item, or give you wholesale amount to buy and install your own. Prices vary on what you want covered and what you want the copay to be, plus where you live. For me it is 49.99 per month with a 75.00 time of service order. You can have more than one item serviced at the same time under the same fee. If you have a SEAR product the repair guys are great. Not that wild about the other ones they send out. But it is a big savings compared to calling someone on your own. The cost of service is only the 75.00 copay."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Gardnerville, NV

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.
