"I had a terrible situation. I had 2 Ames electrical companies turn down the Job as too big. Custom Electrical accepted the job, and Katy, the office person, began to coordinate arrangements with the City of Ames, as well as a boring company, taking me out of the middle of it all. Thank you Katy!!! Rogan, the electrician, spent a great deal of time with me is assessing the situation, was conscientious in all his dealings, and very courteous. Custom Electric made a very stressful situation much easier for me. They will get all my electrical work in the future."

"The wiring and installation of a subpanel were done to our satisfaction. The two electricians we dealt with were polite, cordial and explained what needed to be done, with several options. The total price seemed quite high but since I did not get any other estimates and have had no prior, recent need for electrical work, I really dont know how they fare with other companies doing the same work. All in all, we are pleased with the work they did."

"We had a few loose outlets in my kitchen, living room, and a light switch that was acting up. We’d have to basically hit the wall to make the light turn on! Angus got our outlets fixed, and showed us what the issue was with our switch. It’s nice that he fixed it and showed us what was wrong while doing so! He was on time, and so friendly. He got along great with my husband which was also a plus. He’s definitely the type that, even if I didn’t have my husband present I’d trust he would treat me with the same respect. We’re having some issues with a switch in our hallway and I do plan on calling him back to do more work in our home."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Redfield, IA

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.
