"I had a panel upgrade, some new wiring, a few new outlets put in as well as new recessed led lights installed in 2 rooms. I'm very happy with all the work that was done. They worked well as a team and got it all accomplished in less than 3 days. They were professional, courteous, arrived on time and cleaned up after. I also have to say that the electrical panel looks great. I know that sounds silly but the wires were going every which way. Now, it is organized and is no longer the eyesore that it was. As someone who has had work done in my house over the years. I guess what I'm trying to say is that the quality of work is there and I will definitely use them again."

"Fantastic as usual. Glenn is honest, knowledgeable, helpful, and above all a great person to do business with. He's always either prompt, or will tell you if he's running late, and always does what you ask and is great to help explain what he's doing along the way. He also gave me a tip on retrofit recessed lighting, which I'm going to explore in more detail- no pressure to buy from him, as he is also comfortable with me as a "tinkerer" I will hire him again for my electrical needs."

"Working with Phil to get my electrical service upgraded was about as good as it gets. Phil was responsive with a competitive price and did exactly what he outlined in the proposal. We even added on additional recessed lighting in my living room. He worked on schedule, extremely neat and has a clear attention to detail. I’ll be having Phil back to do additional work and having recently moved to the area, im glad i have a go-to electrician now. thanks phil."

"John was responsive and quick to set a meeting for an estimate. he honored the Angie's List deal for a panel upgrade plus a slight upcharge for going from a 100 amp to 200 amp panel. He also inspected an outlet I was having issue with. This original work was done on 5/27/2016. Unfortunately, when the cold weather came and I turned on my electric heat, it didn't work. I called John and he quickly made an appointment for one of his electricians to come out and check the heat on 11/14/2016. Adam and another gentlemen came out and assessed the issue and was able to get the heat back on as the heat was hooked up to another area in the attic of the house, Adam was also able to trace the outlet I had issue with, put a blank cover on the outlet and ensured the wiring was tied off and not an issue. They took there time and found out the issue and corrected it quickly. They also didn't charge me for the second visit. Honest and professional. Do not hesitate to contact John and his guys!"

"I got a free estimate for upgrading my electrical service from 100 amps to 200 amps and installing GFI receptacles in the kitchen. The estimate was competitive and I chose them. After I paid the deposit, the work was scheduled for several days later. They arrived promptly at the scheduled time and completed the work in several hours. They did a great job, answered any questions my wife and I had, and left the work area spotless. I would definitely hire them again for any additional electrical work on my house."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Jenkintown, PA

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.
