"Ken was great throughout the whole process of installing a bathroom exhaust fan. I hired him because he was very pleasant and professional on the phone, and he understood what I needed done. He worked with the schedule and short time I needed a bathroom fan installed because I had a state inspection coming up. He would answer the phone when I needed to ask him a queation, or he would call back when I left a message. It turned out the wiring from the old fan was not to code, so he figured out a way to rewire the bathroom fan without breaking open the walls. This was important to me because it was a rental unit, and I did not know what to expect. It was a great experience working with Ken, and I would recommend him for any electrical work!"

"If you're looking for an honest and knowledgeable electrician, R.A.P. Electric Company is the real deal. When my master bathroom outlets suddenly lost power, I spent hours checking breakers, outlets, and GFCIs without finding the problem. After contacting R.A.P. through Angi, I expected a service call and a bill. Instead, the electrician took the time to ask a few questions and patiently guided me through troubleshooting over the phone. He helped me locate a forgotten GFCI outlet in my basement that had tripped and was causing the problem. Once I reset it, everything worked perfectly. Many electricians could have charged me for a house call to perform a 30-second fix. Instead, R.A.P. chose honesty and customer service over making a quick dollar. That level of integrity is rare these days. I will definitely use R.A.P. Electric Company for any future electrical work and highly recommend them."

"Mike and his crew were awesome and super friendly. They showed up promptly and stayed on schedule. There work was neat and clean. Very hard working crew. They replaced my electric panel, installed 16 high hats, 3 outlets and 6 smart switches in areas that never had lights so they had to run wiring through existing ceilings. They were very professional and offered recommendations which we went with. I would/will hire them again anytime I need electric work. I highly recommend to anyone!!"

"Bought a house that needed a LOT of contractors. John from Tat's is the ONLY contractor that provided a positive experience, and is the only one I would recommend to all my friends and family and will be doing all electrical work for me in the future. I got 4 quotes from electricians and he's the only one who took extensive notes on everything I needed and gave me a price breakdown so I could choose what I wanted to do for the money and what I could wait doing. Thats why I chose him, but I was very lucky because he did a fantastic job. He's a one man show with assistants (so you're dealing with him for pricing and scheduling no salesmen or foremen or subcontractors) but when I told him I had a time constraint for insulation work that was scheduled, he could bring in as much help as needed to fit my timeframe and schedule around me (work late? no problem. come early? no problem?). He's also the ONLY contractor to show up ON TIME and if there was a conflict call me days in advance to reschedule. He showed me everything he was doing and why it needed to get done or why it didnt. Things that didnt need to get done or I changed my mind about how to do it he would remove from his price quote. He finds a part broken and goes over exactly what my options are and what each one will cost, then calls a bunch of electrical stores and winds up sending an assistant to HomeDepot so he still gets the job done that day. I honestly felt like it was a family member who was an electrician doing my work and I could trust him. I feel like I got lucky in finding him, and I needed to get on here and let everyone else looking you CAN find a good contractor you can trust. Go with John you wont be sorry."

"These guys did a fantastic job for me. Upgraded service to 200, new panel, multiple new circuits and outlets. They worked fast and efficiently to finish the job in an amazingly short time. The guys were friendly, courteous and kept me informed throughout the project. I appreciated the detail and level of itemization on the estimate. Not many companies do that. I would highly recommend."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Maywood, NJ

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.
