"I called and Josh answered. (I called another, closer electrician, but there was no answer.) Josh was going to be in my area and could come that day. He arrived with an assistant, diagnosed the problem in 5 minutes and it was fixed 10 minutes later. Apparently, a wire had come loose in a ground fault outlet and when my spouse erroneously changed the plug, he didn’t wire it correctly. Josh wrote a receipt on his ipad and emailed it to me. This was such an easy and efficient transaction, I will definitely call him back if I have any other issues. They were both professional, clean-cut, knowledgeable and I appreciated their use of shoe covers in my home."

"Tom Mullaney and his team at Wire Works Inc. are top notch. Very professional, responsive, and reasonably priced. Wire Works most recently assisted as with all our electrical needs for a complete kitchen remodel - new outlets, switches, can lights, pendant lights, stove hookup, etc. When the team wasn't able to complete all tasks on the scheduled day for our rough electrical, they found a way to squeeze us back into the schedule so our kitchen remodel could stay on schedule. Tom Mullaney is one of the nicest people you'll meet, and provides an outstanding service. I won't use anyone else."

"CJ did an excellent job with installing new wiring from my house to my detached garage. He communicated with me every step of the way to ensure it was a good time for him to come over and work it. The wiring looks great and he put all plugs and switches exactly where we wanted them. Also did an excellent job of picking out some of the light fixtures and installing them. "

"Lenny was extremely responsive and knowledgable. Very easy to work with. Given a phone call and a few pictures, he completely understood what had to be done (better than I) and priced out the job. He replaced my 40-year old, fuse-based panel with a 100-amp circuit breaker panel, an interlock switch and inlet box for my portable generator. He also consolidated all the circuits from my two existing panels into a single panel. Work was neat and well done. Designed Electric finished the work in a single day. I only waited a week from time of estimate until the panel was installed, The price was outstanding (compared to other bids). Totally satisfied."

"Had an absolutely fantastic experience with Don's Electric. Don did a great job coming out and working with me to plan everything out. The new panel is exactly what I needed, and I'm super happy to have a generator plug-in now. They sent out a crew of two guys who knocked everything out in a few hours. I will definitely be recommending Don's to anyone in need of electrical help from here on out!"

"They did a great job. I had an electrical panel upgraded and 2 new circuits installed. They were very friendly and even took the time to help me with an issue I was having with my bathroom lights. This took them like 5 minutes because they knew their stuff. The only problem was Consumers Energy. They kept canceling my power shut off because of storms in the area and this ended up taking an additional 6 weeks before my job was finally completed. This was no fault of M.R. Electric."

Customers say: Quality work

"The Electrician was very good, didn't install the replacement fan as he indicated that the ceiling in my guest bath would need to come down (a portion of it anyway) and he didn't think the new fan would make a difference in the noise. Said that bathrooms on the 1st level/main level of multi story homes are often noisy due to poor installation and some other issues. <br /> He did fix a plug - and review the electrical panel.  <br /> <br />"

"I hired Derek and his colleague to wire up our new hot tub. He was excellent at communicating and providing an estimate before work was started. The quality of work he provided exceeded my expectations. Everything was done neatly, to code, and did not leave a mess at my house. A sprinkler line was damaged during trenching, since we didn't know it was there, and he made the repairs with no questions asked. I would definitely hire him or recommend for electrical work. A+"

"Very happy with my experience with Mr. Electric. I have used them to put in my whole house generator. They were great. Sam Stone is awesome. He showed up on time and upgraded our panel box. I found him to be very professional and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this company and Sam Stone for all electrical services"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Southfield, MI

While homeowners with substantial electrical knowledge might technically attempt a subpanel installation, most local building departments require permits and inspections for this type of work. Professional electricians understand local code requirements, can obtain necessary permits, and ensure the installation meets safety standards. Given the significant safety risks associated with incorrect electrical work, most homeowners benefit from hiring a licensed professional.

A standard subpanel installation takes an average of four to eight hours. This timeframe may extend if you're installing multiple subpanels or adding specialized circuits like those for spa equipment. Factors such as difficult access points, complex wiring paths, or permit processing times can also affect the overall project duration.

Adding a subpanel doesn't directly reduce electricity consumption or lower your utility bills. A subpanel simply redistributes power from your main panel to additional circuits. However, organizing your electrical system more efficiently may help prevent overloaded circuits and the associated problems. For actual cost savings, consider energy-efficient appliances and lighting instead.

The appropriate subpanel size depends on your specific electrical requirements. Consider the number and type of devices you'll be powering, potential future needs, and the capacity of your main electrical panel. An electrician can perform a load calculation to determine the most suitable amperage rating for your situation, ensuring you have adequate power without overpaying for unnecessary capacity.

A main electrical panel connects directly to your utility's power supply and contains your home's primary service disconnect. It distributes electricity throughout your entire house. A subpanel, by contrast, receives power from the main panel and redistributes it to a specific area of your home. Think of the main panel as the primary distribution point and the subpanel as a secondary branch that extends your electrical system's reach.

While electrical upgrades aren't as immediately visible as kitchen or bathroom renovations, they can contribute to your home's functionality and safety. Prospective buyers often appreciate updated electrical systems that can accommodate modern power demands. A properly installed subpanel that provides additional capacity for workshops, home offices, or future expansions could be an attractive feature for certain buyers, though the direct impact on home value varies by market.
