"Courtesy Electric re-wired our large 1940's house to bring it up to current codes, and we could not be more satisfied with their work. After experience very shoddy work by two other electric companies, I found Courtesy Electric and I will never hire any other company, but Courtesy Electric. They are highly professional and completed the re-wiring to the standards that I had hoped would be the result. Previous work that Courtesy Electric provided us was to undo the work of another electric company that had incorrectly wired some of our breakers. I highly recommend Courtesy Electric for any electrical work."

"Garish called me 20 minutes after I requested a quote, he came out to give the quote the next day and it was a very reasonable price so I accepted. He came back two days later and did an outstanding job. Very clean and professional work. He did exactly what I asked for and even upgraded the outlets he installed to ones with temperature shutoffs at no additional cost. I will be calling him back in a few months to do another project. Very satisfied and would recommend him for any electrical project."

"I need to change my old Challenger home circuit board due to its old age and reported issue. First owner company quoted me at a higher price above market recommendation. The owner has never bothered to respond my inquiries after asking some inquiries. However, this company is friendly to listen to my problems and find a way to save me at the reasonable cost. I am 100% to recommend this company work to most of retiring ladies and gentlemen. Most of electricians seem to rip off old ages people very badly."

"The first thing that comes to mind when I think about Mr. Sparky is intelligence. My house is old and the wiring is set up eccentrically. Fixing some of the wiring was like trying to solve a rubik’s cube with your arms in the air for an hour. Mike O’Neil of Mr. Sparky was polite and explained the necessity of replacing the electric panel and grounding. Justine and Joshua of Mr. Sparky were unbelievably hard working and pleasant. All good."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Sanibel, FL

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.
