"Very professional technician. In a nutshell, a tech came in as scheduled, heard what needs to be done, listened for the suggestions and ideas. He ended doing exactly what was discussed. He even came up with an idea on how to hide the wall cut. A great and affordable experience overall. Will use Casco Bay Electric again. Thanks!"

"Roy and his team did a great job! They are professional, timely, thorough, and have an eye for detail. We bought a house that had a butchered, antiquated electrical system that was unsafe and chaotic. Roy and his team stepped in and not only sorted out the mess but put in its place a state-of-the-art electrical system that has been greatly simplified, and made safe and convenient (Roy spent time walking through the house with me talking through placement of switches and other features that ensured we had light in all the right places and flows perfectly with day-to-day use). Hire RGS, you'll be glad you did!"

"Hank was a life-saver! We needed an estimate to do the job while negotiating the price of the house. Hank understood the urgency, was right there, and produced a very accurate estimate for a job of uncertain parameters. We closed on the house, and continued to live 1.5 hours away while Hank did the work on the house - he had to make many decisions himself, and all were the right ones. He did the job with as little damage to walls/ceilings as humanly possible due to forethought and expertise. We moved in, and the most frequent comment as we got settled was "How 'bout Hank? That is exactly where the outlet should be!" or "we didn't think of that, but Hank did!" A true professional, knowledgeable and thoughtful, respectful of old houses - we highly recommend Marsh River Electrical!"

"I had some lights in my house that were a bit old and I?ve read that new modern lighting would help make my house feel more like a home I can feel proud of. I had Matt come over and discuss new light fixtures. He?s so honest with his quotes and I got exactly what I wanted and more. He was able to find lights better than what I picked out and it?s currently saving me money. Highly recommend!!!"

"Matt installed ceiling fans for me at a very reasonable cost. He showed up on time, completed the job in a very workmanlike manner, and cleaned up after himself. He is a very personable young man and I will hire him again if I have future electrical work. Highly recommend!"

FAQs for electrical for home addition or remodel installation projects in Portland, ME

There are several telltale signs that your home is due for an electrical upgrade. You may need to rewire your house if your lights are constantly flickering or your circuit breaker keeps tripping. If you feel mild electric shocks when you touch light switches, hear buzzing sounds, or notice burning smells, you may need to rewire your house, too. Discolored or burnt-looking switches and faceplates are another crucial warning sign. 

Properly installed copper wiring in a residential property can last as long as 50 to 100 years in some cases, but many homes over 30 years old are due for an upgrade. That’s the timeline that many experts recommend, even if it is only a partial update to accommodate technological advancements, increased power demands, and changing safety requirements. 

At $3 to $5 per square foot, the cost to wire a 2,000-square-foot house ranges from $6,000 to $10,000, on average. This can depend on many factors, like the age and complexity of the house and how easy it is for contractors to access the areas they need to get the job done. Opening and repairing walls can further add to your total cost.
