"I recently hired Gary to upgrade my electrical panel, install new backyard lighting, redo some outdated wiring throughout my home and install a sauna — and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the beginning, he was incredibly professional, communicative, and punctual. He took the time to walk me through the scope of work, explained everything clearly, and provided a fair and transparent estimate. The backyard lighting installation turned out beautifully and as for the wiring, he did a clean and thorough job, correcting issues I didn’t even know existed. It’s clear he takes pride in his work, and I really appreciated the attention to detail and safety. Highly recommend Gary if you’re looking for a skilled, trustworthy electrician. "

"Impressed with Luis & team. First installed new outlets for a TV, moved an outlet, installed outdoor lights, then upgraded my electric panel. Each time great work, very reliable, and I know it’s fairly priced."

"PowerUp Electric did an extensive rewiring of my parent's 1914 home. The wiring was a real mess with a mix old and new wiring. Gabriel, Martin, and Frank were wonderful. We really appreciated their attention to every detail, their follow-up, and expertise! Prior to hiring PowerUp, we had a few other electricians come out to see what was needed, but we did not feel comfortable with their knowledge of how to extensively rewire the home. Frank came out and was very thorough in his evaluation of the current wiring and what was needed to bring the wiring up-to-date. Gabriel worked with us to give us a very competitive price and was extremely accommodating in his working with all the other contractors onsite: pluming, plaster repair, flooring, framers, etc at the same time. We felt that the whole team, Gabriel, Martin, and Frank worked well together and quickly performed all the work needed and helped us make critical decisions with regard to recommended work. At the very end, we had a very old candelabra which had sentimental value which was shorted out. Martin took the candelabra back to the shop and completely fixed it! We are very pleased with PowerUp Electric and would recommend them for any project! We certainly will hire them again if we need any further electrical work!"

"We needed a NEMA 14-50 EV charger installed outdoors for an electric car, and got 3 quotes from Angie's List. Based on the 3 bids, it seemed certain we'd need a subpanel breaker box installed as our main breaker box was full and there were no empty slots to assign to the EV charger. However, only Tommy from Fairway offered up a potential solution within the existing breaker box, if they were able to source a hard to find quad breaker. It seemed unlikely, but would save a lot of hours (new box install / wiring under the house) and money. Sure enough, he source the part and made it happen. On top of that, they were professional and easy to work with. Highly recommend!"

"I'm very happy with the electric service change Woodward Electric did at my 80-year-old house. They replaced the electric panel, riser, and all the old wiring in the walls. Plus, Taylor Woodward is great to work with."

"Perfect and smooth journey, Jorge came pre instillation to check the electrical panel and where the the charger was going to be installed and after the review he text me the cost of parts and installation, after I received the charger he came on time and the job was completed. I was updated by text messages throughout the process. In the future if I need any electrical work I definitely use JK Flores Enterprise."

"We wanted to have a ceiling fan put into our living room. Unfortunately there was no existing fixture in the ceiling so we had to have an existing electrical wire tapped into and a new fixture/mount needed to be created. Not the most fun of jobs when it's 90 degrees outside and over 100 in the attack which is where most of the work was done. Chris didn't seem to bat an eye with regards to doing the job and dealing with the heat. He gave me a fair quote over the phone and after checking his reviews I hired him for the job. Chris and his assistant arrived on time. They got the job done very quickly and it was done perfectly. I would definitely hire Chris for future Electrical needs."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Toluca Lake, CA

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.
