"They went above and beyond! They checked on some extra stuff to make sure we were safe and within code. Everything worked, everything was perfect. They sent us his picture before he arrived so we would recognize him when he arrived. Could not have asked for better!"

Steven was very conscientious and skillful. He was a pleasure to work with and was very respectful of my home by keeping the job site very clean. I feel confident that the work performed by Steven was to the highest level of quality standards."

"Sam did a major overhaul on an outbuilding at our new shop in Union, MO to turn it into and office. New roof, flooring, repaired lots of water damage, paint, and cleanup. The work was done in a timely manner. Pricing was reasonable. They stayed within budget and let me add on a couple things. 😁"

"Notified them that we were getting shocked in the hot tub because they ran the electric from the sub panel to the hot tub. Said they couldnâ t find a problem but they changed the breaker anyway. We get shocked again. Hired a different electrician and he was beside himself because he couldnâ t believe the installer must not have checked the voltage at the quick disconnect box. If he would have he would have seen that there was a ground problem coming from the sub panel. Turns out we used a hot tub that wasnâ t grounded for two years. Glad Iâ m still alive to tell about. Asked Matt Stone why they didnâ t check the voltage at the quick disconnect they installed and he said â we assumed it was correctâ . Use them at your own risk."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Glencoe, MO

While homeowners with substantial electrical knowledge might technically attempt a subpanel installation, most local building departments require permits and inspections for this type of work. Professional electricians understand local code requirements, can obtain necessary permits, and ensure the installation meets safety standards. Given the significant safety risks associated with incorrect electrical work, most homeowners benefit from hiring a licensed professional.

A standard subpanel installation takes an average of four to eight hours. This timeframe may extend if you're installing multiple subpanels or adding specialized circuits like those for spa equipment. Factors such as difficult access points, complex wiring paths, or permit processing times can also affect the overall project duration.

Adding a subpanel doesn't directly reduce electricity consumption or lower your utility bills. A subpanel simply redistributes power from your main panel to additional circuits. However, organizing your electrical system more efficiently may help prevent overloaded circuits and the associated problems. For actual cost savings, consider energy-efficient appliances and lighting instead.

The appropriate subpanel size depends on your specific electrical requirements. Consider the number and type of devices you'll be powering, potential future needs, and the capacity of your main electrical panel. An electrician can perform a load calculation to determine the most suitable amperage rating for your situation, ensuring you have adequate power without overpaying for unnecessary capacity.

A main electrical panel connects directly to your utility's power supply and contains your home's primary service disconnect. It distributes electricity throughout your entire house. A subpanel, by contrast, receives power from the main panel and redistributes it to a specific area of your home. Think of the main panel as the primary distribution point and the subpanel as a secondary branch that extends your electrical system's reach.

While electrical upgrades aren't as immediately visible as kitchen or bathroom renovations, they can contribute to your home's functionality and safety. Prospective buyers often appreciate updated electrical systems that can accommodate modern power demands. A properly installed subpanel that provides additional capacity for workshops, home offices, or future expansions could be an attractive feature for certain buyers, though the direct impact on home value varies by market.
