"Klaus, owner of Resolute Electric, showed up initially to complete the estimate. Klaus was on time, professional and left us feeling we chose the right guy for the job. Klaus provided an estimate within 24 hours, we scheduled the date of the installation and Klaus arrived exactly when he said he would be there. He was very knowledgeable about what needed to be done, did not hesitate to get started and completed installing the flood light in exactly the area we wanted and removed power to the base board heating at the junction box. The flood light needed to be hard wired and Klaus was nothing less than stellar from the moment we met him to the time he left after completing everything we requested. Resolute's pricing is very fair and anyone that uses Resolute will 100% be satisfied with the price and work performed."

"I hired Brett and had never used him before. I based my decision on his prior feedback on Angi. My oldest daughter purchased a 100 year townhouse in Wilmington. The home inspector found numerous issues with the electrical including a recalled circuit breaker panel and numerous miswired outlets and switches. It was a large task. Brett gave me a reasonable offer and I hired him. When you first meet him, you know you are in good hands. He is very nice and well spoken. His work was impeccable. He showed up on time, both days and cleaned up after all work. The work was of very high quality and he went the extra mile doing several things that he did not need to do. In this basement, there was excessive unused wiring in the ceiling which he removed. If you need electrical work, he is your man. and his feedback shows it!"

"I am one very Satisfied customer! Chris and Debra of Galloway Electrical arrived early, took a quick look at what needed to be done, provided a very reasonable price that I accepted and grabbed their tools and went to work. They were very thorough, kept us informed of the progress, explained everything and even provided recommendations for future upgrades. Chris and Debra were very professional, courteous, respectful of our property and a pleasure to talk to. My wife and I were very happy with the final product and will definitely hire Galloway Electrical for any future electrical needs! A big "Thank You" to both Chris and Debra!!!"

"On August 2025 I had two Hunter ceiling fans installed by Mike and was very pleased with the results. The installations were done efficiently and professionally, with both fans mounted in the second-floor loft and bedroom with 8’ ceilings. Communication was clear throughout the process, and he made sure everything was working perfectly, including the wall controls for each fan. I highly recommend their services for anyone needing reliable and quality electrical work."

"Nick was very skilled and knowledgeable. He finished the electrical rough in my basement renovation in a super timely manner and worked around my schedule. The inspection passed first time around with no issues or concerns. He kept the work area clean and walked you through everything that he was doing. While on the job I had an issue with my microwave shutting off randomly. He checked for me and found a MAJOR safety hazard in my electrical panel. The builder did not properly install the breaker causing an arc to occur which burnt the rubber coating off of the neutral wire. He saved my house from eventually burning down because of the builders negligence. I will only hire nick for electrical jobs in the future!"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Little-creek, DE

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.
