They took the time to explain everything and gave me clear options without pushing unnecessary extras. The pricing was very fair, and they completed the job efficiently without sacrificing quality.

"We signed the contract with Verengo 03/07/14 to lease the solar panels. The panels were installed on 4/10/14 and the team was very professional and quick. A few concrete tiles were broken during the installation but they were replaced the next day. There was a code problem that arose when the City came to inspect but again it was corrected (at no cost to us). Everything was approved at the second inspection. On 05/12/14, we were notified that we could flip the switch to activate the panels.  We will be saving approximately $100.00 a month on our electric bill and are very happy with the work done by Verengo.
You can contact Verengo at 1-877-403-4354.

"The overall experience was good. Even though our roof is quirky and we have parts that are shaded, they were able to angle panels in different areas to get the maximum sun exposure. There was one glitch...the system wasn't working when we first turned it on upon approval from the electric company but once I contacted them they were quick to come out. The problem was a switch that hadn't pushed on properly and was an easy fix. We felt like they worked very hard to get the system in for us quickly and were polite and professional throughout the experience."

"I requested an electrician to install a Level 2 car charger in my garage and they contacted me the next morning and said that they could be at my house in 30 minutes. They showed up on time and proceeded to do the job. They went and picked up some parts to mount the outlet about 10 feet away from the panel in the garage. 2 to 3 hours they were done installing a 14/50 plug with a 40 Amp capacity. The car is charging at 20 to 25 miles per hour and the installation is very clean an out of the way. Exactly what I wanted. Good job!"

"Landmark Energy Upgrades really came to my rescue when we were looking for a team of professionals who know exactly what they are doing. We had another team go through with trying to install a PV solar system, but unfortunately even though they promised miracles they never delivered. But the guys at Landmark came in and did the job like pros and the rates they charged were unbelievable for the great service that we got!

"This crew really helped me overcome some complicated electrical problems in the last flip I did. I’ve worked with my fair share of electricians and C2V Electric was just so communicative and low-maintenance. Shoutout to Josie for the hookup! Already have them scheduled for my next project"

"This is the third major project Tony has done for us. They gutted the kitchen and raised the ceiling, ran a new gas line, and upgraded the electrical and plumbing. Tony and his team were amazing and skilled; Tony has a great eye for design as well. Despite having to add electrical and plumbing to the job, they finished on time. We've been working with Tony for four years, and many of his team are the same guys, and quite a happy and polite crew! We are totally satisfied."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Salton-city, CA

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.
