"William and his team did a fantastic job upgrading our meter panel. They took care of all the permits and had the job done on time and on schedule. They were extremely communicative throughout the entire process and I would use them for all electrical services in the future."

"PowerUp Electric did an extensive rewiring of my parent's 1914 home. The wiring was a real mess with a mix old and new wiring. Gabriel, Martin, and Frank were wonderful. We really appreciated their attention to every detail, their follow-up, and expertise! Prior to hiring PowerUp, we had a few other electricians come out to see what was needed, but we did not feel comfortable with their knowledge of how to extensively rewire the home. Frank came out and was very thorough in his evaluation of the current wiring and what was needed to bring the wiring up-to-date. Gabriel worked with us to give us a very competitive price and was extremely accommodating in his working with all the other contractors onsite: pluming, plaster repair, flooring, framers, etc at the same time. We felt that the whole team, Gabriel, Martin, and Frank worked well together and quickly performed all the work needed and helped us make critical decisions with regard to recommended work. At the very end, we had a very old candelabra which had sentimental value which was shorted out. Martin took the candelabra back to the shop and completely fixed it! We are very pleased with PowerUp Electric and would recommend them for any project! We certainly will hire them again if we need any further electrical work!"

"Chris and his assistant showed up on time and were very professional.  Chris walked around the house with me so I could show him what I needed done and he was very accommodating even making some suggestions of his own.  They used drop cloths everywhere they worked so they wouldn't scratch the floors and even asked me about how low I wanted the chandelier to hang. They got up on a very high ladder to change it.  It looks great! One of my patio lights was broken when they took it out of the box so they couldn't install it, but once I have it fixed Chris just told me to call him and he would come back and install it for me. We also had a couple of questions concerning some other plugs in the house and he was very nice about answering our questions.  I purchased the offer he had for $649.00 and it was well worth it.  I also feel better knowing that my lighting was installed by a professional.  I would highly recommend Chris for all electrical jobs.

"I had half of my house and the entire backyard on one breaker - there was an add-n to the house in the 70s and apparently whoever did the add-on decided it should just all go on one breaker. This breaker finally got a short in it and I needed re-wiring. I had several people come by to give me bids, but Emin was the only one who presented me options besides re-wiring the whole house. He and Osman were here for 3 days, and untangled the mess that was the wiring, and even added a 240 outlet for quick charging of my electric car. They were efficient, friendly, and very professional. It was a pleasure working with them, and I recommend them HIGHLY."

"Mark was very professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. He enlarged my electrical panel and installed a plug for my hybrid vehicle. Also, he took the time to explain the procedures to get the panel approval from the electric company and markings placed by the gas company before his work began. Work was expertly completely in a timely manner. Highly recommend him!"

"On 9/2/2020 I met with several electricians who were not being honest with their quotes. They were taking one quick look during the estimate, then throwing numbers at me. But not Francis. He took notes with his partner and sent me the estimate that evening. Francis was very professional, honest, and did a quick clean job. He did bathroom vents, smoke detectors, upgraded my panel, and replaced a wire that a mouse chewed. I will be calling him for more projects. He is excellent! Glad I found him! *Addendum to Review I used Francis again on10/9/2020 to put up recessed lighting. He and his partner did a quick, thorough, and clean job. He removed the old fluorescent lighting and truly transformed the look. He worked with me on the types of lighting and what would work best before starting, which I appreciated. He took my choices and ideas into consideration and made this a wonderful experience. I hope to be adding more to this review soon and have already recommended him to others."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Hollywood, CA

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.
