"Tom is excellent. I had him install three ceiling fans in my vacation home two years ago and the work was perfect. He pays attention to detail and the house is spotless when he leaves. This time I upgraded the electrical work in this home. Tom added outlets, repaired ballasts, replaced outdoor outlet covers and added GFI outlets as needed. I also requested outlets into the living room floor and this was done perfectly. Tom noted what electrical work was necessary and completed everything. As usual, the house was spotless."

"Amazing. He was here several times, always arrived on time with all materials. Before every job the pricing was discussed and I paid exactly what was agreed upon with no surprises. The electrician was kind, considerate and caring and explained everything to me. He made suggestions and took the time to help me understand everything. I learnt this is a family business and being a small business owner myself It was such a pleasure to have him here. So many companies today you get no personalized attention. He was always reachable by email or phone. I would highly recommend him and will continue to use him."

"Matt did two jobs for me, an outdoor lighting job and an inside job where I needed an extra switch installed on a bathroom fixture. Both times he arrived when he said he would and went right to work. Both jobs took less time than I thought they would and best of all Matt's prices are very reasonable. I am so glad I have found Matt Greco Electrical. He is reliable and reasonable and you can rest assured Matt will take care of any electrical issue you have."

"Mike responded quickly to my request for a quote to install recessed lighting on the first floor of our home, and not only was his quote the most reasonable, but he was full of ideas and information. Having lived in a home with no recessed lighting, we knew absolutely nothing. Mike didn't try to oversell, asked the right questions and the end result was perfection. The two electricians he sent to perform the actual installation arrived promptly, and they were genuinely awesome guys. Anthony, the senior electrician, worked quickly guiding the far more junior electrician in training. They were a great team, and the job progressed nicely throughout the day. Mike checked in and suggested one other item to enhance the application that added a little more work, but they seemed to take it all in stride. I know, just more details you don't need, I mention this only because Mike and his team were professionals, and they were invested in my project which meant a lot to us. I would definitely recommend them to family and friends, and also have them back in the future."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Middle Island, 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.
