"I hired M&B Electrical and Mechanical Solutions Corp. for an electrical wiring/panel upgrade, and I?m genuinely impressed with the entire experience. From the first conversation, they were clear, patient, and willing to explain everything in a way that made me feel confident about the work that needed to be done. The team showed up on time and got straight to work. They were very respectful of my home, kept the work area organized, and took the time to walk me through what they were doing as the project progressed. You can tell they take pride in doing things the right way; nothing felt rushed or halfway done. The panel upgrade was completed smoothly, and they made sure every connection was safe, clean, and up to code. They also tested everything before leaving and answered all my questions without making me feel rushed. It?s rare to find contractors who combine technical skill with really good customer service, but they definitely do. Overall, I?m extremely satisfied."

"Quick to schedule, friendly, straightforward, went above and beyond w sourcing parts to make it work but was not specific about a few details including my suddenly needing to take a half day off work to stay in my apt. Also not sure about their labor practices. They were a good resource overallâ just ask all the questions you might have and donâ t be intimidated."

"The electricians did a pretty good job, were prompt and careful maneuvering the ladder they needed to bring into the unit. Carrie and Jeremy on the phone were very nice and communicated well. Giving 4 stars because the electricians had to come back twice because they got the wrong parts from their supplier and didn’t appear to know which part they needed. For $250/hr I’d expect an electrician to know the right transformer needed for a light and the right bulbs to use. So the actual job to diagnose and fix the issue with the right parts took an hour or less but with all the back and forth with the supplier it became much longer. I had to call the office after the invoice came through and we worked it out. Just wish the guys got it right the first time so the cost would have truly reflected the work."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in New-York, NY

A whole-house surge protector blocks voltage spikes from lightning, grid issues, or even large appliances before they can fry your wiring or electronics. By diverting excess current at the main panel, it shields everything from your HVAC to your phone chargers and can extend the life of pricey appliances. Homeowners in storm-prone regions or with older panels see the biggest payoff, but any home that relies on sensitive electronics benefits.

Most whole-house surge protectors work for two to three years. Low-level spikes—too small to notice—hit your panel every day and slowly wear down the internal components. Once the unit’s capacity is depleted, it can’t prevent a larger surge, so plan to replace it on schedule (or sooner if a major lightning strike occurs) to keep your electronics and HVAC equipment safe.

A surge protector begins guarding your circuits the moment an electrician snaps it into place. Whether the spike originates from a nearby lightning strike or your fridge kicking on, the protector shunts the extra current to ground before it can reach outlets or hard-wired systems, such as your AC. That instant response is why a small upfront cost can save thousands in appliance repairs.

The unit mounts on or next to your main electrical panel. Type 1 models sit on the supply side, catching outside spikes before they hit the breaker. Type 2 devices snap inside the panel and tame surges that start within the house. Either way, placement at the panel lets the protector guard every circuit at once.

Plan to swap the device every three to five years—or sooner if you upgrade your panel, add high-demand appliances, or notice flickering lights and tripped breakers. Relying on a maze of power strips is another red flag that your current setup isn’t keeping up. Replacing the surge protector at these milestones keeps your electrical system on safe footing.
