"Went very well. First time using this Angis list. Received a quick response from Angelino Electrical Services to come out. Other companies were scheduling anywhere to a week out. Surprisingly, there was no fee for Mr. Angelino coming out to the premises for an estimate. Other Electrical companies have a fee. Angelino quickly figured out the problem, said it's a quick fix. Along w he being here, he also looked at some other things I enquired about. The initial cost per hour was on the higher end, comparing it to some other electricians. The price for installation of a new outlet and a cover to another (now thinking about it) seemed to be pricy. Throughout the entire time Mr. Angelino was here, extremely nice and courteous individual, knowledgeable, clean, simply a great experience. Within making the appointment (over text) his employee was attentive with any questions or concerns I had (it made things comfortable without having any concerns having someone I don't know, especially hiring someone over an internet app/site). I will use him in the future for other work needed. Referral to anyone I know of any electrical issues."

"Overall it went well. They came out the day prior for the Estimation, and came back the following day. It was a long day for everyone, but of course it was done correctly to Code and done Above and Beyond expected. They even stayed to do the New Electrical Switches, as opposed to coming back another time.

"Really impressed with my new back yard. I was very hesitant as I got so many bids at first, but really what got me is the way they approached that. From A to Z everything done professionally, with a 3D design, demo, and building the new concrete and pool. I love how everything came out and will be happy to use their service in the future."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Taft, CA

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.
