"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."

"Mike and his team are awesome! They upgraded my electric service to 200 amps, installed a new light fixture in my dining room, installed high hats in my kitchen, and replaced a number of other fixtures and outlets around my home. The work was completed in a single day and everything looks great! I've recommended Shamrock to my parents, and will definitely use them for future electrical work."

"Replacing fan went very well. There were 2 workers and they had a very good portable light because it was dark at the time of the appt. I would definitely hire again. Highly recommend BQ Electric. Thank you!"

"I was truly impressed on how professional and efficient they handled the job. I touched the wrong button on the remote and they came that same night to figure out the issue. I wish I had known of his company before I had major electrical work done beginning of 2025"

"Mike responded quickly to my request for a quote to install recessed lighting on the first floor of our home, and not only was his quote the most reasonable, but he was full of ideas and information. Having lived in a home with no recessed lighting, we knew absolutely nothing. Mike didn't try to oversell, asked the right questions and the end result was perfection. The two electricians he sent to perform the actual installation arrived promptly, and they were genuinely awesome guys. Anthony, the senior electrician, worked quickly guiding the far more junior electrician in training. They were a great team, and the job progressed nicely throughout the day. Mike checked in and suggested one other item to enhance the application that added a little more work, but they seemed to take it all in stride. I know, just more details you don't need, I mention this only because Mike and his team were professionals, and they were invested in my project which meant a lot to us. I would definitely recommend them to family and friends, and also have them back in the future."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Syosset, 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.
