"William and his team did a fantastic job upgrading our meter panel. They took care of all the permits and had the job done on time and on schedule. They were extremely communicative throughout the entire process and I would use them for all electrical services in the future."

"We could not be happier with Chris Mercier, or "Chris the Electrician".  We live a new house with very high ceilings in our foyer, probably 25 feet or so high.  We have built in speakers throughout the house and love them but we overlooked installing some in our foyer and we regretted it.  We previously hired a well respected home theater company to install speakers in this high ceiling foyer area but they were unable to complete the job.  They told us the only way they could do it was with a hydraulic lift given the height of our ceiling.  When they arrived with the lift, they told us they were not able to get the lift into our house due to our entry steps and the weight of the lift.  At that point, we thought there was no hope to get these speakers installed.  Meanwhile we also had halogen motion sensor lights on the sides of our house that we were considering replacing with led units.  We also had some other projects we were considering down the road in the perhaps not so distant future.  
With that said, we called Chris thinking he'd probably replace our motion sensing lights and give us a quote on the future work, and probably tell us we're crazy to ask him or anyone to install speakers in a ceiling 25 feet high (or so).  We were shocked when Chris told us he felt it would be no problem to install the speakers.  In fact, everything we asked Chris about both now and in the future, he spoke with such confidence that it made us feel either Chris really knows what he is doing or he is just one very good salesman.  Turns out Chris definitely knows what he is doing.  He completed all the work in a professional and timely manner with a very reasonable price.  He surpassed all our expectations.  Needless to say, he used one very tall ladder in our foyer without fear and did the job like a true pro.    
When he asked him to make some adjustments to the new motion sensing lights, he came back to the house without hesitation and performed the adjustments quickly and effectively.  We feel with Chris that he is truly dependable and very competent.  We look forward to using Chris again in the future.

"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."

"10/10 service. What impressed me most about Mr. Electric was how clean they left the house after every visit. Not a speck of dust or drywall mess anywhere. They installed a new 200-amp panel and updated all our outdated wiring. Professional, honest, and truly cared about doing it right."

"Mr. Johnson and his crew have performed a fewjobs from lighting installations, to doorbell repair, to rewiring. Every job has been done well and at a reasonable price. The workers were respectful and very helpful at explaining the work they did before they left. What really set this outfit apart is Mr. Johnson himself. He always returns calls, his crews show up on time and perform the work expediently. On top of this, when I have had questions about other electrical concerns, Mr. Johnson takes time to have a phone call to consult on the issue. Mr. Johnson and his company are of high integrity and I would highly recommend them for any residential electric work."

"I hired Mitch to run power from my electrical box to an outdoor solarium. It required digging to hide the wiring under my artificial turf, running it through the yard , then into the structure. Mitch did the job perfectly. The yard looked untouched, running the power into the structure was also perfect. He did the job in exactly the time he said he would. He’s the best electrician I’ve had since we moved into our house. Don’t hesitate to call him!!"

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