"No one else would touch this job. Three other electricians said no way. Hackett sent a rotating crew of three for a whole historical house electrical upgrade ito code ncluding replacing all wiring, outlets, light fixtures, smoke alarms, and remodeling through additions over 100 years ...we added walls, took out walls, they moved wiring throughout and changed the electrical panels inside and out and ran electricity underground for a hot tub and for an ADU."

"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."

"service provider sent by American Home Shield was excellent. The only issue I have with home warranty services is that they do not send their repair companies out on the week-end, even in an emergency. The customer service personnel is less than enthusiastic or helpful."

"Work required some repositioning of existing breakers and replacement of others with miniature breakers.  Bill and Matt identified a in worng-branded circuit breaker  (not meant for my brand of panel) and confirmed with me that it should be replaced.  (A previous electrician had down quite a bit of work in the panel separate from this incorrect breaker, but never mentioned the incompatibility.)  
Bill and Matt were punctual, friendly, knowledgeable and very helpful.  The work went very well and was wrapped-up and checked-over in short-time. 
I am very pleased as my experience was excellent.

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Ignacio, CO

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.
