"Clifton Henderson was very professional, courteous and punctual. Although it was not a huge job that he had to do he did it quickly and efficiently, and explained exactly what had to be done. He was extremely polite and very, very affordable. We had originally contacted Mr. Sparky and soon canceled when I found Mr. Henderson on Homeadvisors.com and read his amazing reviews. Mr. Henderson, thank you for your assistance with our wiring issue, we will be in touch for future work."

"Lightning Bug Electric did a wonderful job. We had Josh & Jake come out to install a ceiling fan & a new switch for it in our two story living room. They were extremely nice, funny & professional. They taught us a lot about the home’s existing wiring, & recommendations to upgrade our house that were extremely helpful. The ceiling fan came out great, & the switch as well! I highly recommend them to anyone looking to get electrical work done the right way. Incredible!!"

"We just had LBE come out to do a list of items, including light fixture installation and some electrical upgrades. I'm sure all of their electricians are well-qualified, but if Jason Allen shows up at your place, you can best believe you'll get quality service and workmanship. He didn't try to up-sell us on things we didn't need, and he explained everything he did for us as he went along. He was on time almost to the second, and he's just a nice guy. LBE is lucky to have him as part of their company."

"Three light fixtures installed to existing wiring, less than an hour to survey work, perform task, and do paperwork...$387...Really surprised my elderly parents and me...Just found out through this experience, they have taken over the electrical for Ragsdale Heating and Air, liked it better when Ragsdale did their own electrical...So buyer beware when dealing with this company."

"Awesome!!! O&M Electric, Inc. is an excellent company to do business with. They provided very professional service in a timely manner. Otis installed my ceiling fans, recess lighting, exterior lighting and outlet to my satisfaction. He was very knowledgeable and he took the time to explain what type of lighting he was installing (LED, CFL, soft lighting vs. daylight, etc...) I have already snapped a picture of his business card and sent it out to several friends of mine. I would definitely recommend his service to others. Great Job!!!"

"So far, the service our family has received from Ragsdale Heating, Air and Plumbing has been excellent. We have been using their services for nearly a year now. The first time a Ragsdale technician came to our house was due to some issues we were having with the air conditioner last spring. The problem was easily resolved and we signed up for a service contract for the maintenance of our furnace and air conditioner.
Today, two technicians from Ragsdale, Heating, Air and Plumbing came out to our house for a maintenance check of our furnace and air conditioner. The window I chose for their arrival was between 10 am and 2 pm. They arrived at 10:15; a pleasant surprise since I didn't have to wait for the full 4 hour window. The last time a technician came out to fulfill the service contract was during the Fall of 2013. Each and every technician that has been sent to our house has been friendly, professional, courteous, and on time. There were NO pushy sales tactics or anything like that; just the honest truth about the condition of our units and the possibility that we may need to change a part on one of our units later but it wasn't urgent.
I don't remember the exact cost of the service contract but I do know that it was not some exhorbitant amount (it was less than $200 I believe). And that was a good price for us considering that we had not regularly maintained our units during the 5 years we had been in our home.
I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a new service provider for their air conditioner and furnace.

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Red Oak, GA

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.
