"Ray did such a great job on the electrical work that I originally contracted him for that I ended up having him do every electrical project I ever dreamed of for my home. He literally did everything from installing six ceiling fans, lights in our attic storage crawl space, recessed lighting in our garage and back covered patio and front porch, barn lights for either side of the garage, rewiring a fan with a new switch, a new recessed plug for an old fashioned school clock, and finally, a complete electrical upgrade from 100 amps to 200 amps including working with Rocky Mountain Power. Ray was always quick to respond and I felt safe and confident in his work and his efficiency. And he is interesting to talk to as well. A pleasure to work with and his pricing was more than fair. I am so grateful!"

"Ryan is incredible!! Professional, easy to work with, quick to respond, and fair on pricing. I would highly recommend him to anyone. I needed to upgrade my home to 200 amps of service. I priced it out myself expecting to pay 25% more, instead he came in exactly where I was expecting (just under on cost of equipment, I'm sure with his discounts). I asked him to set things up for a future DIY project I was planning. He said no problem, then a couple days later he texted me out of the blue and asked to come over because he had some ideas on how to do the project. Unpaid, and not expecting anything in return, he walked with me around my property and explained what he would do, which was far better than my original idea. Overall I was just impressed that he was really thinking through the project and suggesting what would work best in my situation rather than what was easiest or more profitable for him. He's a great guy! I plan on using him in the future if/when I have the need."

"This master electrician showed up On time, with a skilled partner, understood immediately what I wanted and how best to do it. The measuring was expert because after they left we stared at everything and were impressed by the level hardware on the walls. Everything was even and accurately installed. If I changed my mind during the process and wanted it moved, there was complete acceptance of my thought process and it was completed quickly. The mood was positive, the work was awesome, the communication was clear and the price was fair. My list was so complicated that two other electricians no-showed me three times each trying to blow me off but not this team. They kept both appointments and stayed until it got finished. I would definitely re-hire Mr. Williams and recommend him to everyone in need of small projects or large."

"The contractor arrived promptly at a respectable hour in the morning. Cleanly extracted the old panel and service box as cleanly as the materials would allow. The Contractor also cleaned up any mess that was produced by the job. All of my expectations were met. I would hire them again. Another thing that impressed me was this contractor checked with Rocky Mountain Power first to make certain trenching was required."

"The home I bought in Sandy, UT needed a whole new electrical panel, according to the inspector's report. TOR gave me an estimate, which seemed reasonable, I accepted the estimate, and work was scheduled. The office staff made arrangements with the power company and the city for power to the house to be off for the day so the work could be done. Four professional, friendly TOR employees arrived and began their work on time. They seemed to work well together as a team and all seemed fully competent and well trained. They had the inspector come after they had removed the old panel and had started installing the new panel. The inspector did his work, chatted with the TOR guys for a few minutes, then gave his okay and left. The TOR guys finished their work on the panel, then inspected inside the house to be sure all of the outlets were correct - all had covers, all near sinks had "safety" outlets, etc. They took care of everything on the checklist. After all the work was completed, the inspector returned to give final approval and the power was turned back on. The whole project took about 6-7 hours. TOR went above and beyond, when I requested they add a hot tub hookup. Everyone I came in contact with from TOR did a great job, from office staff to the guy checking the electric outlets. They were professional and helpful, answering all my questions. They charged me the exact amount of the original estimate. I'm very happy with the work they did. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this company for any residential electrical services. Great job!"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Orem, UT

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.
