"DES installed 2 new electrical outlets, 2 new electrical panels, 3 wall heaters with dedicated circuits, and other miscellaneous electrical work. They explained options and what they would need to do to get the job done correctly. They arrived at the scheduled times, worked around our dog, explained the work they were doing, were friendly and easy to work with, and explained color and size options. When a light malfunctioned, they quickly scheduled an appointment for the waranty work which I am very satisfied with. I would hire them again."

They also fixed the wiring in an existing switch in the downstairs hallway. They did professional electrical work."

"I highly recommend and encourage you to contract with this company for any of your electrical needs! I am having a new kitchen installed into a space that has no previous hookups, circuits, or sufficient lighting. They got everything done in just a matter of a few hours, but, most importantly, did not sacrifice quality work for being fast. They are friendly, accommodating, professional, high quality, determined to make you happy, and honest in their pricing. They will be the only company I use for any future electric needs!"

"I actually had this company do several projects for me. New electrical to a garage with lights and outlet install. Rewire of a barn. Upgrade outlets and switches to my home and retrofitting led lights into a commercial building. Through it all Troy was a good communicator. The team that worked on the projects were polite and easy to discuss the projects with."

"Prairie View Electric is an A+ business. I did a major remodel and addition which required dealing with old electrical wires going/coming from who knows where, installing electrical both inside and outside the home and added an RV hook up. Dustin was quick, he's a clear communicator and took the time to understand my needs and explain when something needed adjusted instead of just making assumptions. I highly recommend his company and will definitely use them again in the future!"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Lakewood, WA

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.
