"Roger did an amazing job of putting things in order, correcting a few decades-old issues in our Cobble Hill house before we rented it out two years ago and helping in crucial matters concerning combining two apartments in Brooklyn Bridge Park. He is extremely careful, very resourceful and amazingly neat in his work. He is creative in solving difficult problems - which in a 177-year-old brownstone is hugely helpful. His approach to electrical work is admirable: his planning, communication and execution is extremely thorough. On top of that he is a really nice guy! I give him my highest recommendation."

"After reaching out to them on Angieslist, Blaze Electric called me within minutes. Impressive. Next they came to my house when promised and were friendly, professional, and courteous, even funny at times. The work was high quality and skilled. My only complaint was the price was outrageous. They charged $299 for 15 minutes of work. That is $20 per minute. Ouch. But again well done work."

"We hired Relentless Electrical Contracting, L.L.C. to provide a service upgrade from an existing 60 amp fuse box to new 150 amp service with a new meter pan, 150 amp panel, and breakers. We could not have been happier with the results. Ivan Rivera was not only professional, but knowledgeable and punctual. It was amazing to see how his expert work progressed from the start to the finished product. This is just the beginning of the work we have in mind and would not hesitate to hire this company for any and all future projects. We would highly recommend Relentless Electrical Contracting L.L.C. and Ivan Rivera to family and friends. Great Job."

"I needed the service of an electrician to troubleshoot some electrical wiring issues I was having with my living room. I hired Mr. Warren and he came and assessed the problem and fixed it for me. Was very professional and thorough with his work. I use him for any of my electrical needs from that day forward."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Staten Island, NY

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.
