"This is an American US Citizen company with working American employees. Cole arrived with 18 yrs of electrical experience. WOW he knows his stuff. I had a ancient electrical box with federal breakers which are known to cause fires. Cole said my old box was in bad shape. It was a no brainer to spend the money and upgrade to general electric breakers. I also hired him to hard wire my carbon and smoke detectors. Job #1 took 2 days. The other work will be done in August 2021. For an experience electrician this is your company."

We will definitely be using them in the future."

"A great company that knows that value and service is the way to build a business. Every time I called, the phone was answered by owner Randy Hemrick. He answered every question I had about the generator and the install. I got three estimates, two from well known generator installers and also Hemrick who was listed in HomeAdvisor. Randy's estimate was more than $5000 and $7500 BELOW the two other estimates. The quality of the install was excellent with no surprises or added costs. This guy knows how to build and run a successful business. If you have an electrical project or install, get two or three estimates including Randy's, you will be glad you did."

"David showed up on time (a few minutes early) and we discussed my concern. He ran his diagnostics and suggested the fix. We also discussed the problem I was having with a ceiling fan and he was able to do a quick fix on that while he was here. He gave suggestions for some future considerations without being pushy like some of the electrical companies I’ve dealt with in the past who pushed to make changes where changes weren’t needed (commission based companies). All is well in my house now and I’m at peace with my electricity. I highly recommend using this team as well n house - Camille - is also quite helpful asking the right questions before sending out a tech. "

"Great experience with BriteBox Electrical Services. Cory Henderson was professional, respectful, and easy to communicate with from start to finish. I showed him where I wanted the outlet installed, and he handled everything with precision. He took the time to protect the work area, safely shut down the circuit, and completed a clean, high-quality installation. The workmanship was excellent. I’ll definitely be requesting Cory again for future projects. Highly recommend!"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Oakwood, GA

While homeowners with substantial electrical knowledge might technically attempt a subpanel installation, most local building departments require permits and inspections for this type of work. Professional electricians understand local code requirements, can obtain necessary permits, and ensure the installation meets safety standards. Given the significant safety risks associated with incorrect electrical work, most homeowners benefit from hiring a licensed professional.

A standard subpanel installation takes an average of four to eight hours. This timeframe may extend if you're installing multiple subpanels or adding specialized circuits like those for spa equipment. Factors such as difficult access points, complex wiring paths, or permit processing times can also affect the overall project duration.

Adding a subpanel doesn't directly reduce electricity consumption or lower your utility bills. A subpanel simply redistributes power from your main panel to additional circuits. However, organizing your electrical system more efficiently may help prevent overloaded circuits and the associated problems. For actual cost savings, consider energy-efficient appliances and lighting instead.

The appropriate subpanel size depends on your specific electrical requirements. Consider the number and type of devices you'll be powering, potential future needs, and the capacity of your main electrical panel. An electrician can perform a load calculation to determine the most suitable amperage rating for your situation, ensuring you have adequate power without overpaying for unnecessary capacity.

A main electrical panel connects directly to your utility's power supply and contains your home's primary service disconnect. It distributes electricity throughout your entire house. A subpanel, by contrast, receives power from the main panel and redistributes it to a specific area of your home. Think of the main panel as the primary distribution point and the subpanel as a secondary branch that extends your electrical system's reach.

While electrical upgrades aren't as immediately visible as kitchen or bathroom renovations, they can contribute to your home's functionality and safety. Prospective buyers often appreciate updated electrical systems that can accommodate modern power demands. A properly installed subpanel that provides additional capacity for workshops, home offices, or future expansions could be an attractive feature for certain buyers, though the direct impact on home value varies by market.
