"I ran into trouble when trying to rewire existing electrical in my son’s 1950's built, detached garage. I called Adam at Go Electric to come help me fix things. He responded quickly! Also, he was very knowledgeable in diagnosing and explaining the problems with the existing wiring which he had to trace and correct in the house. The cost was reasonable and the work was outstanding – highly recommended!!"

"Working with the team from Go Electric was definitely a 5 star experience! I was looking to upgrade the service panel on a 120 year old house from 100 amps to 200 amps in order to convert to appliances from gas to electric. I have a breathing condition that is worsened by the fumes of gas combustion. The quote was fully explained. The change in the panel would also require outside work to the mast and connection to power in order to meet safety codes. Not only was quote from GO almost 3K less than other quotes for the same work, but Brandon informed me that the work would qualify for a $1500 rebate from the energy provider AND GO would help me with getting the paperwork done for that. Installation was equally smooth and stress free with power being out no longer than was explained to me. Adam and his team are real pros and they deliver great work. Inspection was completed in a week with no faults found. I strongly recommend this business for electrical work. Chris A. St Paul"

"I received a prompt response to my request for an estimate. During the initial visit, Mike gave me a thorough, complete, and prompt estimate educating me on my current electrical system and the work to be done. Bob was responsive, friendly, flexible and easy to work with during the scheduling and billing process. Joe and Brian were friendly and professional explaining the work and answering all my questions. They communicated clearly through the whole process. Joe and Brian worked so hard to upgrade our electrical panel from fuses to breakers. They also installed an outdoor meter on the side of our house. They were very thorough and took their time to make sure the work was done right. They worked from 8 am to 6ish pm the first day. Then they came back the next morning to finish the work once again making sure everything was done properly. I even got estimates for more electrical work we need to get done! I highly recommend Randy's Electric and the professionals I referred to above."

"Josh installed the electrical for my finished basement project in my older home. He was very friendly and made it easy to ask questions. He made recommendations on lighting and outlet placement that reflected my needs, as well as updating out of date wiring. I will be using him again!"

"Tom was super professional and was great at explaining everything he was doing as he worked. He wore a mask the whole time while in our house which we appreciated. For the work done he was affordable and I fully plan to hire him again for any future electric needs."

"I wanted a condensate pump on the A/C and furnace so that the condensation didn't have to drain through a garden hose on my basement floor.  I also had purchased a new (and quite expensive) fan for the bathroom; the electrician had wired it but it needed to be vented.Professional Mechanical's price was very reasonable and the installation seemed to go smoothly.  The condensate pump looks great and works fine.  The only problem was that the bath fan did not work as it was supposed to:  it was supposed to run continuously at low speed and then go up to high speed when it sensed movement in the room.  Instead, it ran continuously on high speed.  I looked at the installation instructions and found that this is caused by an obstruction in the venting.  It turned out that about four extra feet of the flexible tubing had been stuffed into the space between the ceiling and the floor above.  Fortunately, my carpenter discovered this and removed the extra flex.  Now the fan works correctly."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Saint Cloud, MN

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.
