"This job was an emergency job and was a panel replacement. Steve called me immediately after the post and was working on it with in 48 hours of the post. This project involved calling EMC, a permit and inspection. He was under the gun and pulled it off. I was not around the house during this time so you can trust him around outside and inside your house. I will be using him for all electrical needs. Thanks Steve."

"Everything went very well.  I made my initial call to Mr. Dozier based on previous excellent reports on Angie' List, but I happened to reach him at a time when his helper had left for a shipyard job and he was poised to interview potential employees.  He described that he also does background checks so that he could feel confident when taking a new employee to a customer's home.  He offered to refer me to a competitor since it would take a few days for him to complete the hiring process, but I explained that there was no emergency and that I was willing to wait for quality work, as I had had a bad experience with a different electrician.  Hold me that he would give me a good price because I was wiling to be patient.  He gave me 10% off the hourly cost and charged me just his cost for need items like new boxes.

"Technician was prompt and very knowledgably. He installed a new 50 amp outlet outside for my RV and made repairs inside for a breaker that had been tripping. He went beyond job scope checking all breakers for loose wires after finding the one that was causing the problem. He was timely and stayed under quoted price. I will definitely sleep better at night knowing that my home electrical system is now proper. I highly recommend this company."

"Third time wasn't a charm, unfortunately,
Immediately after Mr. Harvey left I turned on the overhead light, plugged in the vacuum and 'pop' goes the breaker for the master bedroom. And it kept happening.
So I left a voice mail message the next morning.
And afternoon.
And late afternoon.
And then an email through Angie's List.
No response for three days and unable to use anything electric in the master bedroom (computer, telephone, stereo, lights).
So I called South Baldwin Electrical and they were out within two hours.
Made a few adjustments in the three-pole wiring and everything is fine.

Still have the crooked closet light installation with the 2" gap between the base and the glass panes but I'll deal with that later.

All this could have been avoided if Mr. Harvey had responded to any of the messages.

"Boykin representative, Mr. Billy came and gave a fair quote which was agreed upon to install two ceiling fans for the great room that has cathedral ceilings. He went right to work and was done in a timely manner. He made sure everything was working correctly before leaving. Mr. Billy was very knowledgeable and friendly. We will definitely use Boykin Electric Co. for future electrical needs. Thank you."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Perdido, AL

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.
