"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

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.
