"My garage electricity was out. I called him to get an estimate. He gave me a couple of troubleshooting suggestions for free. I followed them and they worked. Now, how can you not hire him if you had work to be performed or better yet, I thought of some things to be done around the house just to hire him for his honesty. People like him are rare to come by these days."

"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."

"Mike did a great job installing a new outlet. He had to go into the attic and run the wire. The job was done quickly and effectively. He was pleasant and cleaned up after himself. I will definitely use Mike for future projects."

"I was very happy with the work, its Christmas week and he was a able to come out the next day- I had power go out in 2 of the bedrooms. When I talked with him on the phone I also asked if he would be able to put a chandelier up in the dining room while he was here. He replaced an outlet that wasn't grounded and blew, the electrical panel switch then assembled and replaced the chandelier. My house was built in the late 1800's, he found old knob and tube and an old gas pipe fixture stud- he was able to complete the task without any issues. Thank you and Merry Christmas!!"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in North-westchester, 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.
