"We hired LJI Electric to wire our entire new construction home. They did the whole house rough-in and the final trim. They were proficient, professional and had excellent communication skills. Johnny (the owner) did everything we asked of him, plus more. He and his crew are knowledgeable, fast, and practice perfectionism to the "t". His rough-in passed state inspection the first time. We highly recommend Johnny and his crew for anything minor to major work. You won't go wrong hiring LJI Electric, not only for their excellent work, but extremely reasonable pricing. Very satisfied customers, Arnold and Carla Marquez"

"Bradley is very professional and very knowledgeable and on time. He was also able to get started on our house right away when others said it would be weeks. Our breaker box was very old and the wiring in our house was a mess and it needed replaced and repaired. We only had a couple of electrical outlets inside the house and we had no power to the bathroom. We also wanted him to also install new ceiling lights and we wanted him to add new outlets. Bradley replaced the old fuse box with a new fuse box and he added new outlets and replaced the old ceiling lights with new ones. He also got power restored to the bathroom. When he was done everything worked like brand-new and his rates were by far the best that we could find. It was the first time ever using an electrician that we felt like we didn't get ripped off."

"Will Smith is a skilled professional who actually cares about his customers' safety. He is knowledgeable, and won't sell you what you don't need, but makes sure that the customer receives excellent service and quality for what the job requires. He went above and beyond all expectations, and his prices are extremely low. In fact, he completely remediated a PREVIOUS electrician's horribly botched and unsafe job and did it for much less than expected. The house is now safe and sound and the peace of mind is priceless. There is no one else whom I'd recommend to friends and family."

"Overall a great experience, the system on the vacation home is working great! Jake helped guide us through the solar buying process and effectively explained all the benefits without pressuring us into buying anything we weren’t comfortable with. Definitely would work with him again."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Rye, CO

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.
