"It was great! The person that they sent was able to determined immediately that the polarity was reversed. So All he had to do was switch the wires at the back of the outlet."

"Raul installed a new outlet and dedicated circuit for our smart toilet and hardwired our medicine cabinet — going the extra mile to put the cabinet on its own line for constant power, a trickier job than standard. Multiple holes had to be cut in the ceiling and walls to run wires, but he patched everything back up and cleaned all the dust and debris thoroughly. Both jobs done in just a few hours. He also installed a new light fixture and swapped our old outlet covers for new ones without me even asking, and didn't charge extra for either — small touches that made a real difference. His price was also one of the best out of all the quotes I received, so great value for the quality of work. Before hiring, he answered all my questions by text and call with zero pressure to book. Professional, efficient, great value, and clearly takes pride in his work. Would hire again without hesitation."

"I have no problem with the quality of the work performed or the professionalism of the technician. He was very efficient and polite and did the work quickly. I'm very happy with the results of the work. The new light switch works great. My issue is with punctuality and responsiveness. My appointment window was for 12-4 pm, and the technician didn't show up until after 5. I did not receive a phone call, text or email to inform me that he would be late. I called the office to inquire and was told that someone would get back to me. Nobody called back. It would have been nice to know what was going on. I had no idea what was going on until my bell rang at a little after 5 and the technician arrived. I would have appreciated an explanation or an apology, but I received neither. For that reason, I can't give an A rating across the board. Based strictly on the quality of the work, I would hire again, but I was not happy with the other aspects."

"He is a very meticulous electrician and did a beautiful installation od a neon art work by a contemporary artist. It was a difficult job which accomplished very well. I am hiring him again for work on my panel that has water damage. I strongly recommend him. Also answers the phone always and has reasonable prices."

"I hired Brian about a year ago to update the electric panel, sub panel, and change out about a dozen or so two prong outlets in a house I just moved into. He and his crew did an outstanding job. Brian was very friendly, honest, and professional. Told me all the costs upfront. Very fair pricing. His electric work is all up to code (which should go without saying, but as a new home owner I'm learning that there's plenty of contractors who try to cut corners). I've hired him back twice since the initial major job to do a couple minor jobs as they came up. I will definitely hire him again as future projects arise."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Little Neck, NY

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.
