How We Work
Every upgrade starts with understanding what your home actually needs before any work begins.
We discuss your current setup, any issues you've noticed, and future plans like additions or EV charging that might affect capacity needs.
A technician examines your existing panel, wiring, and load capacity to identify what's outdated or undersized for current demand.
Based on findings, we recommend the right amperage and equipment, explaining what changes and why it matters for your home.
We install the new panel and associated wiring, working to minimize disruption to your household during the process.
Once installed, we test the system to confirm everything operates correctly before we consider the job complete.
Frequently asked
Get clear answers about service upgrades, preparation, timing, maintenance, and what to expect before requesting an estimate.
Q1
Signs include frequent breaker trips, flickering lights, a panel with fuses instead of breakers, or plans to add an EV charger or major appliance. An inspection can confirm whether your current setup is adequate.
Q2
It depends on square footage, appliances, and future plans. Many homes today are moving to 200 amp service, but a load calculation during consultation will tell you exactly what fits your situation.
Q3
Most upgrades are completed in a day, though timing can vary based on panel location, wiring complexity, and whether utility coordination is required.
Q4
Yes, power is shut off temporarily while the old panel is removed and the new one installed. We schedule this portion of the work to keep the outage as brief as possible.
Q5
Electrical service upgrades typically require permits and inspection. We handle the paperwork and coordinate with local authorities as part of the installation process.
Q6
Yes. EV chargers draw significant power, and many homes need a capacity increase to support one safely alongside existing electrical loads. We size the upgrade to your specific charger.
Q7
A repair fixes a specific problem with existing equipment. An upgrade replaces the panel or wiring entirely to increase capacity or bring an older system up to current standards.
Tell us about your home's setup and what you're looking to add. We'll walk you through what an upgrade would involve.
