"This is a truly great company. They provide great customer service and spend time explaining the details and answering questions. My husband obsessed about every single detail and could not deny that it was a no brainer. Our first electric bill since installing the panels was a CREDIT! I was not expecting that. If you have ever considered solar, seriously, just do it. Long term, you can not go wrong."

"Midwest Electric was out to install a new circuit panel, update some outlets and install carbon monoxide/smoke detectors. Terrific experience from beginning to end. Very professional, friendly, showed up on time. Cost was very reasonable. Will hire again for other electric needs."

"A bedroom light-ceiling fan combination was shorting and wired differently than our other room fans.  Previous experiences with Cady Handyman made it an easy decision on whom to call for service.  I was able to a get a repair appointment-- at a time that works for someone with a day job-- within three days of calling.  Though the old amateur wiring job was a mess, Tom thought through the repair and had it done to expectations in reasonable time (including a trip to the hardware store for parts)."

"Mr. Hal Morris was responsive, detailed and kept us informed of the project. He provided us with a plan, followed through and answered our questions. He was also open to trying new material, copper, to the lattice panels. He also was so kind and installed four steel hooks so we could hang additional plants."

"Mike Jones lived up to his previous high ratings. Very easy to work with. Upfront pricing. Went above and beyond the original reason for my call. Fixed a baseboard heating problem and gave me some honest advice and reasonable pricing on a new service panel. Great communications all along. Would highly recommend Mike Jones Electric and will definitely be my first call for any future electrical work."

"Excellent service and professional staff. Completed work according to contract and did so in a timely fashion. Would never hesitate to call them again or recommend them to family and friends. They also took care of contacting inspectors and getting us a rebate from the electric company."

"Paul Landmann responded promptly to my request for a proposal, having been highly recommended by another service provider. The project was carried out on schedule, and the results are excellent. Replacement of back porch decking was in addition to the original proposal and was accomplished on a time and materials basis. Paul and Kelly were courteous and friendly, made appropriate suggestions, were very accommodating when asked to make small changes, worked steadily and were very attentive to detail. While I could probably have found someone to do this project for less money, I believe in the old adage, ''You get what you pay for,'' and the impressive results confirm this. I saved $600 by doing some demolition work myself, and Paul included some materials at no charge. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this small company without reservation and would definitely hire them again."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Kilkenny, MN

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.
