Customers say: Quality work

"The gentlemen showed up on time. Were most very professional. Did a fantastic job and described to me step by step EXACTLY what they were doing. I felt like afterwards I learned a little bit about electrical wiring. The job consisted of installing a dryer vent in my garage and rewiring 3 outlets in a bedroom. Definitely recommend for any future electrical service."

"They did a very good job. They did a wonderful job. It was much less stressful than it could have been. I think the price was good. I don't think they were unreasonable for the work they did. I think it was well within the price range. I am a homeowner, I don't want to pay anything. I needed an upgrade and they were able to do that for me. They did well."

"Don came out and wired my new pool install. He was very professional, courteous, and went above and beyond. While here he noticed where a previous electrician I hired took a shortcut and it had caused other issues in my house. He took the time to fix what they had done even though it wasn't his responsibility. I would recommend to anyone. Thanks again Don!"

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

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.
