"They did a very good job. They did a wonderful job. It was much less stressful than it could have been. I think the price was good. I don't think they were unreasonable for the work they did. I think it was well within the price range. I am a homeowner, I don't want to pay anything. I needed an upgrade and they were able to do that for me. They did well."

"I just moved into a recently renovated home and couldn't power up a brand new dryer that had just been delivered that morning. The delivery guys said that I had two days to figure out if the problem was the outlet or was dryer was defective. If it was the dryer, they would pick it up and take it back and bring a replacement at no charge, but only if the dryer was defective. The only way to know was to hire an electrician. Luckily I found Julius and called him explaining the situation and the urgency. He was here within 20 minutes! Not only did he show up fast and ready to get the job done, but he was so friendly and helpful. He diagnosed the problem right away as the outlet, which wasn't wired correctly. He explained the problem and showed me as I watched him as he fixed it. Plugged in the dryer, turned it on, and it worked! So, I just wanted to again say "Thank you, Julius!"…he was great!...I highly recommend TR & JP Handy Electricians."

"I2T Inspection and Electrical services was called in to my home to do a general electrical system evaluation on our electrical panel. We were having a lot of breakers tripping, some of our appliances were not running correctly, so they did a great deal of inspection and realized some of our circuits were overload, they found significant heat coming from some of the breakers, also found some circuits that were added, but not correctly. All of those issues were contributing to the numerous power fluctuations we were seeing in our house. After recommending corrective actions, they were able to fix all of our issues and brought our panel to standard. Fantastic company with a very knowledgeable personal on both power system design and inspection. Very professional, knowledgeable, and innovative company. I would hire them again in a heartbeat and will recommend them to all my family and friends."

"What an awesome company. Called in the morning, they said they could come out in 2 days.They had me troubleshoot a few things and when I call back to say I needed a Service Call, they said they were in the area and would be here by noon. Randy and Cody went straight to work. They were professional and polite. Everything was fixed in a timely manner. What a great job they did. I would definitely hire them again and highly recommend Lance Electric to everyone."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Shady-dale, GA

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.
