"If you are shopping around for an electrician stop right here. I was so nervous because the work I needed was substantial. We needed a new central air hookup,an upgraded and moved electrical panel and the outside meter and lines moved! I was nervous. Tommy was so sincere so reassuring, he made me feel completely at ease. And I was right. Right from the start Theresa kept me informed every minute. Tommy showed up with his crew,actually before 8 am and worked straight through until after 6pm. The work he did is impeccable. He is a type AAA and it shows in his work. I can't say enough about his professionalism and ability. He should be Long Island's Electrician! Thank you Tommy,credit and Theresa."

"PKJ Electrical is the most professional electrician's I have ever hired. They were on time, courteous and very knowledgeable. They replaced my breaker box. I have never before seen the wires so neat and organized as I did after he was finished with my job. I will only hire PKJ for all of my future electrical needs. Thank you again for such a wonderful experience."

"Ross was great as were the rest of his crew. I think I met almost all of them. The project included two new Leviton smart load panels and a new meter box as well as new underground service line which required working with PSEG. It was all taken care of professionally and efficiently on time and at a reasonable cost. The work was done in two stages as per my preference and budget over about 5 months. I had them come back for additional work unrelated to load panels installing outlets by 8 skylights and a new fan box. All done professionally. Will definitely use again. Low friction, cost effective, timely and high quality."

"I had an outlets issues and couldn’t figure out why. When I reached to Angie’s for some pro tip I was able to connect with Michael and he was able to get the job done, given how swift and thorough he was, I hired him again to install two ceiling fans and a doorbell transformer for me. Michael and Joel was very thorough and fair on the price. I’d definitely reach out again in the future. If you have any electrical work that needs to be completed, reach out to C.E and ask for Michael you won’t regret it!"

"I hired them to upgrade my 100amp panel to 200amp, relocate to the basement, and install a 30amp dryer outlet. I was extremely happy with the work they did. First, they were able to come and do the work just a few days later and finish it in one day which was a life saver because we needed it done before we moved in the following week. Second, the quality of work was clean and professional and they even installed a few new GFCI basement outlets free of charge. Third, they suggested a few upgrades like a surge breaker and transfer switch for a generator which I just used a few weeks ago and worked great. Fourth, pricing was fair and similar to other quotes I received so I didn’t feel taken advantage of. Overall I couldn’t be happier and will be calling them again for any electrical work needed in the future. Thank you DZ!"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Stony Brook, 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.
