"Randolph was phenomenal!!! He was incredibly thorough, credible and knowledgeable. He was here at the same time as another company that was installing cable and Internet. He intervened when he heard the other technician give us incorrect and misleading information. He then advised the other tech how to accomplish what we wanted, in the manner we wanted. His intervention cost us extra, which he advised us, up front, but it was worth it! Had he not intervened we would have paid so much more later. He did a wonderful job on our recessed lights, placing them exactly where the boss (aka my wife) wanted them. She was tickled pink with his knowledge and expertise and commented that it was exactly what she wanted from her electrician. We could not be more pleased with this company and the person that represented them so well. Whenever we need any electrical work done, we will definitely call the Doctor - Dr. Electric."

"They did a great job. They were on time like when I needed them to be. They were flexible when it came to scheduling. Everything looks fantastic. This company had the best pricing and I did get a couple other quotes. I wished I could give them an A+."

"I highly recommend Sammy and his team. Apparently my house had settled which caused the underground mains to pull away, which damaged one of the 'jaws' on the incoming power lines inside the meter panel. As you should be aware, APCO owns everything from the pole/line in to the jaws, and you own from the jaws into your house.
The electrician, Cruz was right on time and very pleasant to deal with. In our discussion, he was also highly qualified for the task and beyond. Unfortunately we had to wait close to 2 hours for the Alabama Power guy to get there...
When the APCO guy got there and pulled the panel from the meter box it turned out that the third party APCO contractor went ahead and repaired the jaw, likely because it could be considered a safety/fire hazard. There was nothing for Cruz, the electrician to do. There was some previous legwork such as getting a permit, and scheduling time with APCO, so Sammy had some time and cost in it already. Sammy COULD have charged me the $100 for the permit, and $145 x 2 hours for a total of $390, but instead charged me for only one hour ($145). This kind of service just doesn't exist anymore. It was nobody's fault (except perhaps the fact that the APCO contractor did not relay these details to my account notes), but Sammy would have been justified in billing me the full amount because he had his guy out there for 2 hours, and then the time and $$ associated with getting a permit and scheduling with APCO. 
Thank you Sammy Rubin! I hope this review brings you more business because of the way you dealt with my problem. I will definitely recommend you to anyone I come across, and will use you for my next electrical need (the basement). God Bless!!

"The service was outstanding. Jackson Electric was quick to respond, very friendly, and best of all the work was installed properly. I highly recommend these guys to all my family and friends. Some of these other local guys could stand to learn a few tricks of the trade from you. Thank you Jackson Electric! ?"

"Shane was very professional - and an all-around good guy. I could not have asked for better service. He carefully analyzed issues with the existing system and provided a detailed quote of services required. He ultimately installed a new fuse box, re-organized the wiring in the house, installed new outlets (interior / exterior), installed a bathroom vent fan, installed exterior flood lights, and fixed a ceiling fan, among other items. I could not be happier to have located Shane for this and future electrical work."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Trafford, AL

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.
