"Kevin has been doing electrical work for us for about a decade, first upgrading the electrical ststem in our 1920s bungalow in Willimantic, and then coming out numerous times to update various elements in our historic home in Chaplin. He's great to work with, no- nonsense, thoughtful about creating safe solutions for our older house, including a generator installation. A nice person and a true professional."

"He's been the best electrician I've ever dealt with. I was extremely impressed and shocked. not only did he do a phenomenal job, but it's immaculate. There is not a little bit of wire sitting standing anywhere. He cleaned up, he was lovely, he didn't talk much, but you know, he was very busy all day because our entire electrical panel had been blown out from that storm. This is the 1st time since July 4 that we have not been sitting in our house with the lights flashing on and off."

"I highly recommend Deary Electric. After finding them through Home Advisor, I spoke on the phone with Josh just a few minutes later. They arrived when he said and called ahead 30 minutes before he arrived. Once here, Josh and his partner were able to quickly figure out what the problem was and fixed it shortly thereafter. Cost was more than fair; money well spent. Will definitely call them for future work."

"Hiram is awesome! Super friendly guy who knows what he is doing and appears to be capable of anything electrical. He is very punctual, knowledgeable and does great work. I hired him first to replace our old electric panel and he did a great job. Weeks later I had him back for "rough in" work on our new kitchen and baths project. Everything is wired very neat and clean and will be having him back at another later date to drop in lights through our attic into the upstairs ceilings of our new to us old home. (1800's) He's reasonable and works efficiently. There is no other electrician for us now. He's ruined us for hiring anyone else. haha. Just seriously good work at reasonable rates. You wont go wrong hiring him. HIGHLY recommend him."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Montville, CT

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.
