"I call and spoke with David . I asked do you charge to come out? He said no we do not. He sent 2 pros Bryan and Cody. They arrived promptly and were very friendly. 2 outlets in my master bath wasn't working. He came in tested the outlets and asked me if I have another bath. Yes, I replied He goes on the other bath press the GFI button came back to the master bath stated problem fixed. I was super happy!! So I asked how much ? He quoted me $200 I said for a 30 sec repair. I asked why are you charging me $200? You didn't have to repair anything. You just pushed a button. He then said the service charge is $200. I said, when I booked this appt I asked David was there a service call charge he said no. I then call David and asked what are you charging me for? He said the pro will reduce the cost when he come back inside. They wanted to replace the GFI outlet just to get $200 ridiculous!! I said no it's working . How much $125 not happy $75 would have been fair to me the customer"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Stone Mountain, GA

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.
