"Guys showed up on time and quickly diagnosed and fixed problem. While here we discussed she and load on house panel and had them install a whole-house surge protector. I had a post house get toasted by a lightning strike so seemed prudent given electronics in house."

"Great job! The electrician did exactly what I had asked. I had an overhead light roughed-in for a finished room. He made the smallest a fewest holes possible to run the wiring. This made patching very easy. I will happily use Columbus Breeze Electric again."

"Had Matt run new wire for a big addition and hook everything up. He was easy to work with, communicative, and fast. Very talented for a young guy. I was nervous about some potential complications but once we turned everything on, zero issues"

"Had an emergency situation with home electrical service being out and randomly contacted D and H Customer service was fantastic. They were at the home within a half hour and diagnosed the problem quickly. They also stated that the repair could be done the same day which was great since the temperature in the house was 49 degrees without power and furnace. They provided an estimate and once approved, they went right to work to obtain the components needed for complete replacement of service into the house from the utility drop down. Included new weather head, wiring, conduit, meter box, electrical panel and breakers. The work was completed within a few hours. The price sent us into sticker shock when we saw it, but told them to proceed anyways since we did not have time to see if anyone else would come out on an emergency basis and also have the repair done the same day. Bottom line: Even though the price is believed to be high, (granted, we had nothing to compare it to), we were happy with the quick response, the friendliness of the electricians and the quality of work. If your need is not an emergency, I would recommend a couple of other estimates for comparison. They did do a nice job though."

I have 2 security lights at the back of the house that were installed in 2004.  They were halogen lights and worked for a few months then stopped working.  I had 1 replaced in 2005, but it also worked for about a year, then quit working.

I bought 2 new LED security lights and Mick came to the house to install them.  He has done some work for me in the past and I always stick with the good companies when I find them.

After installing the first light, Mick saw that the second light I purchased was missing some parts. I would need to return the light to the store and purchase a replacement.  Mick told me to call him when I got the replacement light. 

Several days later, after I got the new light, I called Mick and told him to just come by when he was in the area so he didn't have to make a special trip.  He had offered to come back and not charge me a second service fee ($45).  A few days later, Mick came by and installed the second light and only charged me $20.

Mick is polite, knowledgeable, and courteous.  I highly recommend him for your electric needs.

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Howard, OH

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.
