"Ignacio ghosted us. We hired this company back in 2021 for my ev installation. During the first year we had issues with it not charging and Ignacio would come and fix it. Now it?s 2025 and resetting my breaker isn?t working so I called him out again and this time he came and said my ev charger shouldn?t be on two separate 120V they should be on a 240V, well I think he realized he was the one who installed it wrong and now has been ghosting my message and calls. I wouldn?t do business with these guys anymore and reading their reviews I wish I would have known how horrible the installation was but I?m not an electrician and trust the wrong one."

"I would say this is the BEST SERVICE YOU CAN FIND for HVAC. I had an intermittently functioning heat system where we almost replaced the $300 Next thermostat and ran a 40 foot power wire through the walls, which would have cost quite a bit. Instead, a very capable man did the right testing and found we only needed a capacitor and he had one on his truck. He then spent another hour removing the dirty fan and cleaning the whole system with Shopvac and garden hose. We'd been breathing all this dusty air and did not know it. They came the day we called and everything was handled expertly after two weeks of problems with heat and incorrect solutions suggested. Highly recommended and I will save their number!"

We look forward to working with you!

"Like with many electrical home improvements, what is discovered is very different than expectations. We were adding a dedicated new breaker and electrical wire for a garage freezer. It seemed simple…. until we opened up the walls for the desired path. Moses dedication to his craft and professionalism was clearly demonstrated. Even though it tripled his expected time, the quality of work and dedication to the project was top level. I am a facilities manager for three commercial buildings. I hired Moses because of this character as a licensed electrician and now a contractor. I recommend him to anyone who wants quality work and is willing to pay for it. Remember if it's cheap, your quality will be more than likely cheap."

Electrical wiring or panel upgrades FAQs

Upgrading an electrical panel may not significantly increase your home's value, but it can make your property more appealing to potential buyers. A modern electrical panel enhances safety and meets current electrical demands, offering peace of mind to home buyers. This can make your home easier to sell and potentially lead to higher offers when the time comes.

Upgrading an electrical panel from 100 to 200 amps costs between $750 and $2,000, not including the cost of running new wiring for additional circuits. This upgrade increases your home's electrical capacity, allowing you to safely use more appliances and modern electrical devices without overloading your system. It's a valuable investment for homes with growing electrical needs.

Yes, in most circumstances, you will need a permit to upgrade your panel. Contact your local building department if you’re upgrading the breaker box, moving it, upgrading your amperage service, or adding a new subpanel. If you’re just replacing a light switch, receptacle, or single breaker in the electrical box, you may not need a permit, but it’s always a good idea to check or speak to a professional.

When only the unit is exchanged, replacing an electrical panel takes four to eight hours. When associated wiring and additional components require removal and reinstallation, the process extends to 20 to 30 hours. A professional electrician deploys a dedicated team to remove the old panel, install the new one, and update all wiring with precision, ensuring your system meets current safety codes.

Replacing an electrical panel begins by turning off the power and notifying the utility company. The electrician secures all required parts, disconnects wiring safely, and inspects the system before removing the old panel. Following safe disposal, the new panel is firmly installed, and all wiring is reconnected and updated to current safety codes.

An electrical breaker panel lasts 25 to 40 years when maintained correctly and inspected annually. This proven lifespan guarantees a long-term, safe electrical system. Regular maintenance and prompt professional evaluations preserve the panel’s performance and secure your home’s power supply, ensuring continued safety and system efficiency.
