"Do NOT use this company unless you want to be charged astronomically higher than what you should be. I had a furnace/air system put in and charged over 10,000 when unit itself costs a little over 3,000. Had pipes in kitchen alone done and charged 2,800 and left the wall out from floor to ceiling where pipes went. Now 5 years after purchasing this unit tried to charge me $800 for a part repair that was under warranty so that was for labor alone went elsewhere and had done for $180. They take advantage of people that aren’t knowledgeable on what stuff like this should cost. Don’t appreciate repeat customers and you will never pay a fair price avoid at all costs."

Electrical wiring or panel upgrades FAQs

Yes, upgrading your electrical panel is a worthwhile investment for most homeowners. A 200-amp upgrade provides capacity for multiple modern appliances and electric vehicle charging stations and reduces the risk of overloaded circuits. This improvement is especially valuable for homes with all-electric heating or cooling systems. While the average investment of $1,600 is significant, it enhances safety, convenience, and potentially your property's market appeal when it's time to sell.

Yes, electrical service upgrades always require permits to ensure compliance with local safety codes. Your licensed electrician can handle the permit application process and coordinate the necessary inspections. Skipping this crucial step could create serious safety hazards, invalidate your homeowner's insurance, and cause complications during future home sales. The permit cost of $50 to $300 represents an essential part of your project budget.

Whether you need to rewire your house depends on your existing electrical infrastructure. Many homes with reasonably modern wiring only need the service entrance cable and panel replaced to achieve a 200-amp service. However, homes with outdated wiring systems may require more extensive updates to safely handle increased capacity. A professional assessment by a licensed electrician will determine your specific requirements based on your home's current condition.

The physical installation requires four to eight hours of professional labor. However, the complete process—including permits, inspections, and potential utility company coordination—may extend over one to two weeks. During installation, expect your home's power to be temporarily disconnected. Complex installations involving significant rewiring or panel relocation may require additional time. Your electrician can provide a more precise timeline based on your specific circumstances.

You may qualify for a 30% federal tax credit (maximum $600) for qualifying electrical panel upgrades. Additionally, some local utility providers offer their own incentive programs for electrical system improvements. Research your state and municipal energy efficiency programs, and consult with your electrician about which panels meet eligibility requirements. For specific tax credit information, consultation with a tax professional is recommended.
