"Daniel from Imperial Electric did an excellent job for us. We had a relatively small issue that he rectified for us very quickly and then did a very thorough inspection of our entire house at our request. He made a number of recommendations to upgrade our old electrical system that were practical, reasonable and in line with current codes."

"Amer was absolutely top notch. He came out in 30 mins on a Saturday morning to take a look at the project- rewire barn, new panel box, pool pump set up. He then came out as the pool was being installed, on his own, to make sure it was going well and to find out info about the pump for his part of the job. He came out a few days later and completed everything perfectly, went above and beyond and made everything aesthetically pleasing. After the job was completed, he then proceeded to walk me through everything he had done and explained why, and even going so far as to explain how my home generator works (weâ re new home owners), as well as upgrade our old dingy barn lights. We already have another project set up with him in for late summer/early fall. Amer communicated wonderfully, completed the job perfectly and went above and beyond. I canâ t recommend him any higher!"

"6 Stars! Joseph was great! He came in and surprised us. He actually reviewed our circuit panel before performing any work. I've hired other electricians, and they'd come in and quickly start opening wall or light outlets without understanding what they might be getting into. This indicated to me Joseph was a Professionalism. He wanted to know what he was getting into before just removing outlets. He also provided some minor recommendations for our panel such as some wire management to clean up our panel a bit. In the end, he resolved a couple of electrical matters we were experiencing. One being a 2-way light switch that wasn't working properly. He fixed it very easily (easy for him). Second, he resolved a bedroom outlet that wasn't working. (again, easy for him). We'll be hiring Joseph again in the coming days to install smart WiFi breakers in our panel box so that we can manage our breakers and monitor the home electricity usage on each floor and room from our phones."

"I need it, my electrical panel upgraded. In order to install a heat pump. Claude and his team secure the necessary permit and completed the work in one day. They relocated the electric meter and ground in order to make the project up to code. I also had an outdoor outlet installed. Melissa was a dream to work with in coordinating the project. I would hire them again if needed."

"Istalled light switch; 2 electrical outlets and troubleshoot and fix bad existing outlet and lights. Quality work performed to my satisfaction. They diplayed a high level of knowledge and experience for the work in which they performed. They showed up on time, explained what was needed and cleaned up after themselves. And the cost is very reasonable."

"The outlet was installed as requested, and the technician was fast and efficient. However, I would have preferred a cleaner-looking finish and better cleanup afterward, as some stripped wires were left behind. Overall, the job was completed, but the final presentation and cleanup could have been better."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Lansing, IL

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.
