"Prior to his scheduled appointment, I made contact with Mike, he made it clear along with the estimate converting the fuse box to an upgraded circuit breaker along with running outside wiring. As promised, he and two servicemen arrived at that day along with the said time. They did a good job performing this service in a timely and diligent manner. A very good characteristic whether on the phone or in person he presented himself well with good communication skills at the end of the job it was injected with a little humor. Finally, he answered my questions that erased any second guessing in the future. Most important, I feel safe, MB Electric deserves a AAA+"

"Forrest was on time and very knowledgeable. He located the issue that was causing our breaker to trip and disconnected the lawn pole. He gave us several options to either repair, replace or to find the items to self fix the issue using a Solar lighting lamp top. I will use him in the future and whenever anything happens to our electrical systems!"

"This company was responsive from our first phone contact. Their electrician, Joey, came out to give us an estimate. By the care he took determining exactly how to go about this job, we felt he knew his craft. Joey came out and worked all day, even updating wiring that we were unaware was sketchy plus others that we suspected to be poorly done by a contractor. It turned out that we needed another circuit. Joey went out to get it and came back to finish the job. Joey, not only proved very competent, but he was personable and professional. I highly recommend this company. Be sure to ask for Joey. We intend to do the same should we need electrical work done in the future."

"Can't say enough about the professionalism of Leon and his crew. He gave me an estimate that was dead on what the final charges were. They were there on time, they kept the jobsite clean and the install was top notch. Even the heating and air conditioning contractor who came in the next day to replace the heating and central a/c system commented on how well the install was. I would have no reservations about recommending Leon to work on my house if the case arises."

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

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.
