"They did an excellent job getting all the junk out of my basement garage and house for which I thank them and paid them very well.

I live in Worcester and work from Schoharie to Oneonta and Cooperstown to Stamford (or thereabouts). We do old house remodeling, exterior painting/restoration and everything in between.

"Painting exterior! Entire church with repairs to special wood designs on the Ginger Bread construction structure. Kalindi House LLC, have truly transformed the white Church into this beautiful, inviting piece of art. Kalindi is the artist who looked at our stained glass windows and colors on the pipe organ, then presented these paint colors to our church members with her drawings. Kalindi took the time after beginning one side, to also meet and adjust some colors for a better contrast which highlights all the construction design characteristics built into the panels, displaying the people in the steeple, windows and doors. The pictures are absolutely amazing, but to see it in person is majestic. Ed has been wonderful repairing and replacing all the rotted wood specialty designs on the reliefs and eves. Their attention to detail and meticulous work ethics are very rare to find. We are very blessed to have kalindi & Ed, who have been so caring, understanding and patient with us."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Schenectady, NY

Warning signs that indicate potential service line problems include frequent circuit breaker trips, flickering lights throughout your home, buzzing sounds from your electrical panel, or visible damage to exterior wiring. If your home has an older electrical panel (25+ years) or you notice a burning smell near your electrical connections, contact a licensed electrician promptly to evaluate your system's condition.

Responsibility for electrical service lines is divided between the utility company and the homeowner. The utility maintains everything up to the connection point at your property (often the weatherhead or meter), while you're responsible for the service entrance cables, meter base, and all wiring beyond. Contact your specific utility provider to understand exactly where their responsibility ends and yours begins.

A standard electrical service line replacement takes one to two hours for a straightforward installation. This timeline may extend if complications arise or additional electrical work is performed simultaneously. The process includes disconnecting power, removing old wiring, installing new components, and restoring service. Allow additional time for scheduling inspections and obtaining necessary permits.

Most standard homeowners' insurance policies don't cover electrical service line replacement due to normal aging or gradual deterioration. However, damage caused by covered perils like lightning strikes, fires, or fallen trees may qualify for insurance coverage. Some insurance companies offer specific service line coverage as an optional add-on to standard policies. Review your policy details or consult with your insurance agent to understand your specific coverage options.
