"I had an old light fixture removed that did not have a backbox & cover plate to house the wires correctly and a bedroom ceiling fan that mysteriously stopped working. I read a number of Angie's list reviews and felt that VMA Electric seemed like straight shooters, fully transparent and would be able to solve my issues efficiently. (I knew this job would be T&M rather than pre-quoted as it's impossible to say how long something like this would take). But Nancy in the office was wonderful to work with scheduling the work and she gave me the hourly rates ahead of time so I knew what I was going into. I was fortunate with my timing as they just had a cancellation - so they were onsite the very next morning. They solved both of my issues efficiently, cleaned up after themselves and made the whole process extremely wonderful. If you're reading this saying "I just need an electrician or two to come by and fix a couple of lingering items that I've had on my checklist for awhile" - you've found your company. The invoice/bill for the work was emailed to me the following day and it was exactly in line with expectations (a lot of reviewers are cautious about seeing an invoice after the fact). The pricing was exactly in line with the rates previously given and it was itemized with materials, etc. Anybody would be very happy with this group."

"We would recommend Scott in a heartbeat! Wow, he did a great job on the many different electrical projects we threw at him. He was fast, beyond fairly priced, courteous, and professional! He replaced our electric panel, upgraded the service, and wired our entire basement renovation for outlets and lighting. I can't imagine ever going with anyone else for any of our electrical needs!"

"I contacted NRG Electric because we had an emergency situation. The main power connecting to the meter was toast and the panel was getting fried. Josh and Mark came in and identified the issues, made it temporarily safe, got the materials and replaced the meter and panel. They also ensured that the pre-existing wiring, and loads on that wiring was safe. I was without power for a total of 4 hours. They were absolute professionals. When they left there was no sign that they had ever been there other than a new box and panel. Great Service, respected our time and property, ultimately concerned with the safety of my family and property. I will 100% utilize there service again."

"Cotti-Johnson was superb. We had long wanted a permanent generator attached to our house but delayed due to the hassle (buying a generator and then finding all the separate contractors needed to do the electrical and gas work). Cotti-Johnson was one-stop shopping. They did it all, including arranging for the final inspections. They responded to our inquiry right away and within weeks, our generator was fully installed. They also upgraded our electrical panel (long overdue). Kudos to Eric for assessing our needs and E. J. and his co-workers for their efficient and excellent work in installing both the generator and electrical panel."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Upton, MA

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.
