"Ryan did an excellent job and was very reasonable. I was looking for an electrician at approximately noon time, could not find one all were busy giving me at l. at about least a two day wait. At about 4 pm Ryan called me and asked if I still needed an electrician and I did desperately. He said he would be here in about a half an hour. Being true to his word he arrived in 30 minutes fixed my problem. He gave me his business card and I will be calling him fo all of my electrical needs. I highly recommend Ryan at JSTANBDY ."

"True North Electric is a great electrical business. We had an electrical outage at our house, in Grass Valley. It was a hot day about 100 F and all of a sudden, our electrical system went out and only half of the house was working. Went to try and restart the circuit breaker and that did not resolve. We went to the internet and found True North Electric, which was local to the area and gave them a call. True North Electric team is affordable, easy to talk to and did very clean work. Our electrical system is up and running well! We would recommend them to family and friends."

"Itâ s easy to write a Five Star review for Estey Electric. They were professional and efficient and also had the lowest bid. They replaced my 45 year old main power panel, did unexpected trouble shooting in the house, plus they hooked up my standby generator. I thought it would be a difficult job, but the experience and competence of Shawn, Dave and the crew made it go quickly and smoothly. They are certainly capable and knowledgeable electricians, and I would have settled for that, but it was obvious that their goal is to leave every job with a satisfied customer. I was so pleased with what they did for me; I told Dave, you are my electrician for the rest of my life. In my opinion, you canâ t go wrong choosing Estey Electric.

"He went above and beyond what I asked for to meet my needs. His hourly rate is very good and below what others charge. His work is also very good. He is very accomodating and do not nickel and dime you for additional things that I asked him to do outside the original scope. Overall, I am very happy with his work and he just becomes the preferred electrician for all electrical needs that my company needs. I highly recommend him."

"The overall experience was good. Even though our roof is quirky and we have parts that are shaded, they were able to angle panels in different areas to get the maximum sun exposure. There was one glitch...the system wasn't working when we first turned it on upon approval from the electric company but once I contacted them they were quick to come out. The problem was a switch that hadn't pushed on properly and was an easy fix. We felt like they worked very hard to get the system in for us quickly and were polite and professional throughout the experience."

"My house always have an electric bill issue with the AC going all summer long and everything we used today being electronic. This issue caused me to start and look for a company that can lower my bills by installing a solar panel system or any other type of a solution. Since switching to nuclear power was frowned upon by my neighbors and the federal government, I decided solar panels would be worth a try. After looking and researching on several companies, I decided to meet and talk to the representative from Landmark construction and energy crew. Ezra and his staff over at Landmark Construction were great. Ezra walked me through the whole process and he was completely honest and accurate with the pricing and time schedule. The system that he recommended me was a 3.1 kW system with panels on the roof of the house. He had the time to tell me how will it go and what will be the final results after the system will be fully installed and working. I have a past experience work in the construction industry and I know competence and good workmanship, these guys know what they are doing and do it well. I was very satisfied with the work and with the system that they installed at my house. My utilities bills came down as Ezra said they will. I would recommend them to anyone considering solar power."

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