"We'd been worried about our aging electrical system and used Angi's to find a few companies to get estimates from. Omri came and gave us our free estimate. He was very thorough and took his time to explain everything to me and my grandmother. He let us know what the most vital upgrades were (replace and flip subpanel out of a closet, replace feeder wire from the main panel to the subpanel, and replace the outlets in the bathrooms with GFCI outlets). Omri sent us an estimate and because of his thoroughness and thoughtfulness we decided to go with CA Electrial Group 24/7. We were told it would take 2-3 days to get the permit from the city and that all of the work would be done in a day. When we received the quote, we accepted it (subpanel replacement and installation, feeder wire from main to sub panel, drywall repair, GFCI outlets, and pulling of the permit) and paid the $200 deposit) We were able to schedule the work to be done the following week. The day of, Ricky came & replaced the subpanel & worked with another worker to replace the feeder line. They both seemed very skilled and were very careful with their work. They took a lot of time to make sure that everything was done well and correctly and cleaned up everything. They had not been aware of the need to also replace the 3 GFCI outlets, as they do not have access to the quote. They replaced them nonetheless, though. Benito came in the next day to complete the drywall and stucco patch work and painting. They all did AMAZING work! The only areas of confusion came down to the city permits & timing of the job. Upon our initial meeting, we had been told that the work would all be completed in a single day & that the company would handle the permits. After all of the electrical work was completed on day one, we were informed that the drywall work could be scheduled whenever we wanted it. We spoke with Omri again about the original discussion about the job taking just a single day and he apologized and scheduled the drywall work for the next day. What we did not know, though, was this meant that we could no longer have the city come inspect the work in order to get the permit as all of the work had now been covered up. Before paying the bill my grandmother wanted to make sure that the city would be coming in to complete the inspection, as we had discussed both prior to the work being done and while the work was being done, but we were then informed that if we wanted a permit, we would not only need to pay an additional fee (city fees - not mentioned in the original discussion) & have to have the drywall cut out and replaced again. It may have been an issue of miscommunication, but it was a bit of a frustration and left my grandmother feeling a bit worried about being up to code and feeling a bit upset about the whole project. Omri did everything he could to make it right and to work around our schedule to get the inspection and new work done, so we do appreciate this, but wished this had all been made more clear from the getgo. Overall, the work they do is fantastic, but would highly suggest that you keep track of everything discussed as many details seem to fall through the cracks. * It should also be noted that the company changed the quote after the fact to include the new fee that had not been discussed in the original meeting and quote. The original quote we received on 7/9 had charged us $0 for pulling the permit, but we can no longer access this version of the quote as they changed it on 7/19 after my grandmother had requested a copy of the permit."

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.
