"Kenny was on time and pricing was fair. We had three fans installed and some wiring. It was done over two days, but they were very professional and we are pleased with the service. His team was timely as well."

Customers say: Super punctual

"Hey guys, I had an electrician from BriteBox, come to my house to investigate a problem I thought I had. As it turned he (Mark Henderson), the electrician pointed out while checking my electrical panel of something that could be gave down the road. We live in our homes oblivious to what lurks beneath the surface. It's almost, as if you need to take an electrician, along with you on your househunting endeavors. Too ensure the property you may buy is within code, certainly, if it's an older home! By the way he Mark, solved the problem with the original reason for the call!!"

"Our first encounter with Ragsdale was late last summer, around August. We have had problems with both our upstairs and downstairs units over the past four years, and we were finally fed up and wanted the upstairs unit replaced. Ben came out, diagnosed the problem, and quoted us for the replacement of the unit. The price was more than reasonable, considering we had paid three other companies over the two years prior to "fix" different issues. The unit was promptly installed and immediately worked like a champ. At that time, our downstairs unit was functional.

Fast forward to this year, Ragsdale put in multiple calls, emails, and even a mailed letter to us reminding us of the routine maintenance that was due on our upstairs unit. I am thankful that they are that dedicated to ensuring the quality of their work. As it happens, our downstairs unit has now taken a turn. Ben came back out and quoted us for a new downstairs unit with his professional recommendations. He is very professional and knowledgeable, and we are thankful to have had him out again.

Our routine maintenance check for the upstairs unit was today, and Sam swung by to check out the systems. He not only gave us the best maintenance check and tune up, but he gave us some warnings about both units running so much and how we could lower our electric bill.

We will not be going anywhere else for our HVAC needs! I highly recommend Ragsdale and all of their staff.

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Rex, 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.
