"Excellent work! Great communication before and leading up to appointment. They cleaned up the debris and took the old stuff for discarding. Transparent estimate and honest about pricing and what was included. Scheduling was right on time, and they took care of coordination with AEP and the county inspector, including the permits. Thank you for the excellent work! Highly recommended and will be used in the future! I can not say enough about honest work. We got estimates from others that were including work we didn't have to do, and it made a $4k difference in the estimates. Tech Connect didn't oversell or push what we didn't need, and they are worth 5 stars! We had our drop and electric meter replaced. We did not have to do any inside work. The drop was set up in conduit for protection from the elements, which had seriously deteriorated our original, causing rain to drain down."

"I was an unlimited contractor for 32 years and retired. Couldn’t handle it , had to go back to work. I would like to say that I would work with Chris anytime . He was extremely productive , knowledgeable and professional, and I might add a great guy . Honesty is something you don’t see much anymore in the workplace, when he would tell he would do something it happened . Can’t wait to work with him again !"

"All the work was completed exactly as I’d hoped and I’m happy with the outcome. It was pretty quick turnaround from when I first reached out to the work being complete, which was good because the electrical work was a prerequisite for another project. I had two light fixtures needing repair and a new outlet to be installed. I was able to watch the work and it was interesting to learn the steps involved. Electrical work is definitely an area where I wanted a professional involved! Would call this company again for any future electrical work needs."

"We initially had Travis come out to hang a light fixture in our tall foyer, fix nonworking kitchen outlets, contain a live wire in the basement and quote us for installing recessed lighting. They did a thorough walk through of our home and identified several safety concerns, including expired smoke/carbon monoxide detectors among other things. They fixed the kitchen outlets during that first visit and we scheduled for the remaining work to be done the next week. They were on time every day, clean and professional. We had no worries with leaving them in our home alone. They work was done timely and done right! We will use Travis again for our electrical needs."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Radford, VA

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.
