"RJ was excellent! Very helpful and informative about the condition of the wiring, the options for upgrading, and how we can finance the costs. The company was very responsive and professional. In addition, RJ communicated clearly and helped my mother understand the situation and how she could best address it. Eric"

"Harrington Electric has come to my rescue personally more than once. Most recently, my hot water was on the fritz. Jay came out and got my water heater back up and running by quickly diagnosing a bad breaker and changing it out same day. When I was a property manager, Jay did a number of trouble calls and planned upgrades for me in addition to new installs. I will call him again the next time I need an electrician for sure."

"My solar inverter stopped working in my existing solar system, and since my original installer went out of business, I had a hard time finding someone to replace the inverter provided by SolarEdge. It was a small job, and most large companies weren’t interested, while those willing to help were booked out for at least a couple of months. I contacted Justin, and he replaced the inverter within just a few days. He was very friendly, efficient, and offered a very reasonable price. Justin was also extremely knowledgeable, explained everything clearly, and kept me updated throughout the process. He arrived on time, completed the work neatly, and made sure the system was running perfectly before leaving. Overall, his professionalism, honesty, and dedication to customer satisfaction made the whole experience stress-free and smooth."

"Anthony was the first from AL to return my call and was able to give me a straight quote over the phone. We set up a time for him to come see the house and then I booked the purchase on AL. He visited to see the current system, take some measurements and introduce himself.
He was very professional, friendly and knowledgeable. This visit took approximately ten minutes and he was also very eager to answer electrical questions that were not related to the service he was going to perform. After the visit we scheduled the service and he explained how things would go on the day of service.
On the day of service he arrived early and again explained what would be going on, kept me informed of progress and also cut an outlet plate that I was replacing as I did not have any tools that would do an adequate job. Once the service was complete he tested each breaker and labeled the panel according to what each breaker controls.
Overall Anthony did excellent work, was very professional and had exemplary communication so we knew exactly what was going on throughout the service.

"The quality of work and professionalism were outstanding.  I had them to the house for something different, and when checking the electrical panel found that I was in a very dangerous situation because of water leakage. The issue was explained to me, the repair immediately scheduled, and they helped with my insurance claim details.  Taken were pictures, which we given to me with detailed explanations about what the pictures represented. Along with that a detailed narrative related to the issue, cause and resolution were supplied to me. My insurance company issued me a check within 15 minutes of receiving the files from Mr Response.

I highly recommend them, and will be having them back in my home for additional work!"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Heath, MA

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.
