"Truly professional! Tech was great, knowledgeable and did a great job. The wife wanted to convert our electric stove to gas. Tech converted 220V to 110V with new wires run, new outlet per code. Very neat. Very reasonably priced because you are not paying for commercial spots constantly! Would use again and again for ANY electrical job I need."

"Great service!  Wanted to surprise my husband with a birthday present of an already installed new flat screen smart TV.  Dennis was flexible with my preference for scheduling on the day of my husband's birthday and gave me a very reasonable estimate over the phone for 2 to 2 1/2 hrs. work.  
Jeremy and Josh were punctual and professional.  After unpacking the TV, the mount and the in-wall outlet that I provided, they went to work running the wiring for the TV outlet above the fireplace and installing the cover plate.  Jeremy took great care to place the outlet so that it would be completely hidden by the TV.  They installed the mount on the TV and the wall, making sure everything was level and centered and hung the TV on the wall.  After they ensured the TV would turn on, they cleaned up after themselves and were in/out in just under 2 hours.  
The TV looks fantastic and NO MORE CABLE/WIRE in front of my beautiful fireplace! Believe me, there is no need to call the "home theatre installation" people - what a rip-off!   Easy Electrical will do the same thing.  Thanks guys!  I'll definitely call you again!!

"Myles and his brother Ned are total professionals, They wired up my shed by installing a GFI on the outside and installed 2 outlets on the inside along with a screw in socket in the ceiling for a light. They also installed a carriage light outside the door of the shed. They did an OUTSTANDING JOB and I would hire them again. Top notch work at a very reasonable price. Would have given them 10 stars if I could."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Swansea, SC

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.
