"Project had some unexpected hiccups (working on a 1960 house with previous owners "upgrades"). Got it done, took an extra day, but they kept me informed and only came in 10% over the original bid with me being aware of the changes as they happened. Would recommend. Project was upgrading an old 100amp federal panel to a 200amp panel and service, also ran some new external power, rewired a bedroom, kitchen and laundry room."

"Always get a second quote for big projects. I was quoted a price by this company to upgrade basically everything electrical in MyNewPlace and it was $2,000 more than another well known comparable company."

"The tech, Bradley Cooper, who came to my house was just awesome, courteous, and patient. First he came out to do an estimate and presented an affordable solution that others had not considered such as going thru my attic to run the line to the back yard. There was a slight snafu once I decided to go with Baker Brothers for the electrical work. The person who took the order didn't catch I wanted them to come to install the new breaker circuit and didn't properly schedule enough time to do the work as it was an all day job. No worries, Bradley took care of the mix up and was back the next day to do the work. Despite us being indecisive on where we wanted things put and our lack of knowledge about what was needed to hook up the swim spa, Bradley patiently waited for us to make a decision and even called the place that sold us the swim spa to get help on where to place the wires for the swim spa. Once the work was done, Bradley and his assistant cleaned up after themselves. The assistant, a former AC man, even told us that it looked like our air conditioner overflow was full and we needed to get that looked at. Overall, it was a great experience working with Bradley & Baker Brothers. Will definitely use them again."

"I needed an additional lighting fixture wired in and mounted above our pantry as well as an outdoor outlet in our patio ceiling, Cool Hand crushed it! They were extremely respectful of our home and wore disposable booties over their shoes every time they had to come inside from the attic or backyard. The install was extremely clean & professional, and of course worked flawlessly. Luke was very kind to our curious daughter who didnâ t make his job any easier! We wouldnâ t hesitate to hire them for the next project, they are 1st class."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Waxahachie, TX

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.
