"They ran into some weird problems with my old 1978 ground wires and ancient fuse box. Didnt slow 'em down. They had the whole thing ripped out, replaced with a better one, rotohammered and re-grounded my house, showed and told me what they were doing and what to expect. They worked with me to get my estimate to what made the most sense. Advised about fixtures and future proofing. 11/10 Mike an Nick were great. So good in fact, I'm setting up some more work. They were experienced, they were nice (fun even!)and no egos! Thats an almost impossible combo."

"Everything was smooth in terms of the project. There was a hiccup with the quote I got because they mistaken the installation as an indoor installation. But it was outdoors. We agreed on a price that worked (which was higher than initial quote). They did a great job and made sure inspection was done. Great job. I would go back for future electrical projects."

The roots of the Electric Company can be traced back to 1979 when founder Stephen Brandeis first began doing business under that name, providing electrical services to his local community. Where did the name come from? His kids will tell you that he was inspired by one of their favorite TV shows from that era, The Electric Company. When the family moved to Seattle in the early 1990s the name came with them, and since then the business has grown and more family members have joined the team. We're proud to be family owned and operated, and we want our customers and employees to feel like family too. If there's ever anything we can do to help just let us know. We're right there when you need us!

We can take on a wide range of residential and commercial electrical projects to include full installation for additions and remodels as well as wiring/panel upgrades, and a variety of other projects. We take pride in the quality of our work and our commitment to outstanding results. We look forward to building strong, long-term relationships with our clients and guarantee your satisfaction.

"Our neighbors recommended Bogs Electric to install EV charger. All communication was very efficient from requesting a quote up to scheduling an actual appointment. Bogdan showed up exactly on time and finished installation in less than 2 hours given electric panel was full and required additional optimizations. Work was completely finished, including inspection, which other companies requires several weeks on top just to get an appointment. Super happy with Bogdans work and highly recommend him. And, yes, price is very reasonable."

Electrical wiring or panel upgrades FAQs

Yes, upgrading your electrical panel is a worthwhile investment for most homeowners. A 200-amp upgrade provides capacity for multiple modern appliances and electric vehicle charging stations and reduces the risk of overloaded circuits. This improvement is especially valuable for homes with all-electric heating or cooling systems. While the average investment of $1,600 is significant, it enhances safety, convenience, and potentially your property's market appeal when it's time to sell.

Yes, electrical service upgrades always require permits to ensure compliance with local safety codes. Your licensed electrician can handle the permit application process and coordinate the necessary inspections. Skipping this crucial step could create serious safety hazards, invalidate your homeowner's insurance, and cause complications during future home sales. The permit cost of $50 to $300 represents an essential part of your project budget.

Whether you need to rewire your house depends on your existing electrical infrastructure. Many homes with reasonably modern wiring only need the service entrance cable and panel replaced to achieve a 200-amp service. However, homes with outdated wiring systems may require more extensive updates to safely handle increased capacity. A professional assessment by a licensed electrician will determine your specific requirements based on your home's current condition.

The physical installation requires four to eight hours of professional labor. However, the complete process—including permits, inspections, and potential utility company coordination—may extend over one to two weeks. During installation, expect your home's power to be temporarily disconnected. Complex installations involving significant rewiring or panel relocation may require additional time. Your electrician can provide a more precise timeline based on your specific circumstances.

You may qualify for a 30% federal tax credit (maximum $600) for qualifying electrical panel upgrades. Additionally, some local utility providers offer their own incentive programs for electrical system improvements. Research your state and municipal energy efficiency programs, and consult with your electrician about which panels meet eligibility requirements. For specific tax credit information, consultation with a tax professional is recommended.
