"We have used Big Frog Electric on several occasions as our home needed to have some upgrades done. Everything they have done for us has been excellent. Everything they need to complete the project is brought with them. They are extremely efficient, knowledgeable, and professional. They are best electricians we have found, and we would not use anyone else."

"We have had renovations done before and struggled with other contractors work ethic and professionalism, but Ben with Good N Handy was a dream to work with from start to finish. Angi should have an option to rate more than 5 stars. We spoke about the project, got the quote in a timely manner, and set up a timeline for the project. His communication throughout the whole project was professional and prompt. He respected our home, quality of life, and time. We never felt put out or inconvienced which is saying something as my wife works from home, we have two kids, and I run a business from home. The end product was exactly what we talked about, and it is gorgeous. I have used Ben many times since and referred him to friends and family alike. If you want a project done right by someone who is competent and accountable, use Ben with Good N Handy."

"Lightning Bug Electric did a wonderful job. We had Josh & Jake come out to install a ceiling fan & a new switch for it in our two story living room. They were extremely nice, funny & professional. They taught us a lot about the home’s existing wiring, & recommendations to upgrade our house that were extremely helpful. The ceiling fan came out great, & the switch as well! I highly recommend them to anyone looking to get electrical work done the right way. Incredible!!"

"Excellent! This is the second time I have used Argo Electrical and I was extremely pleased both times. They showed up on time, did the work, gave me advice on some other wiring I had and the cost was very reasonable. I highly recommend Argo."

"Hi-Five Electric was a pleasure to work with. They wired my entire basement. They put outlets and installed light fixtures through. The whole crew was professional. Arrived timely each day and cleaned up afterwards when done. Will surely recommend them for any electrical needs."

"I am very picky about the work I have done at my home and not all companies rated 5s on this site are actually 5s because of people's different expectations or lack there of. I have to say that I was extremely pleased with the service of Dependable Electric Services. Justin came out to quote my project and was very nice and had excellent service. His team came out a few days later and Brian and another guy with him was also very friendly. They consulted me on every change to the original plan due to housing issues and things they ran into with the house and got my approval. They set the expectations with me on any possible damage to the walls so I wasn't surprised and asked me prior to ensure the work that I needed done. In the end they even cleaned up after themselves. In addition, the value for the money for what I had done was excellent. I will certainly recommend them in the future as well as have them back to wire my basement project to come soon. Highly recommended and you won't be disappointed."

"David Hardeman and his assistant Nate Toussaint did an excellent job installing dedicated 220 circuit for my new Kia Sportage plugin. Everything went smoothly and they came up with a more efficient route to take for snaking new line. David was great in allowing his assistant to have input. - something seldom seen! David also put in a whole house surge protector which necessitated an addition to my breaker box. They cleaned up after themselves as well!! I will definitely use them for some additional jobs I thought of the minute they drove away!!"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Lawrenceville, GA

While homeowners with substantial electrical knowledge might technically attempt a subpanel installation, most local building departments require permits and inspections for this type of work. Professional electricians understand local code requirements, can obtain necessary permits, and ensure the installation meets safety standards. Given the significant safety risks associated with incorrect electrical work, most homeowners benefit from hiring a licensed professional.

A standard subpanel installation takes an average of four to eight hours. This timeframe may extend if you're installing multiple subpanels or adding specialized circuits like those for spa equipment. Factors such as difficult access points, complex wiring paths, or permit processing times can also affect the overall project duration.

Adding a subpanel doesn't directly reduce electricity consumption or lower your utility bills. A subpanel simply redistributes power from your main panel to additional circuits. However, organizing your electrical system more efficiently may help prevent overloaded circuits and the associated problems. For actual cost savings, consider energy-efficient appliances and lighting instead.

The appropriate subpanel size depends on your specific electrical requirements. Consider the number and type of devices you'll be powering, potential future needs, and the capacity of your main electrical panel. An electrician can perform a load calculation to determine the most suitable amperage rating for your situation, ensuring you have adequate power without overpaying for unnecessary capacity.

A main electrical panel connects directly to your utility's power supply and contains your home's primary service disconnect. It distributes electricity throughout your entire house. A subpanel, by contrast, receives power from the main panel and redistributes it to a specific area of your home. Think of the main panel as the primary distribution point and the subpanel as a secondary branch that extends your electrical system's reach.

While electrical upgrades aren't as immediately visible as kitchen or bathroom renovations, they can contribute to your home's functionality and safety. Prospective buyers often appreciate updated electrical systems that can accommodate modern power demands. A properly installed subpanel that provides additional capacity for workshops, home offices, or future expansions could be an attractive feature for certain buyers, though the direct impact on home value varies by market.
