"Had to replace my broken porch light. As you know home projects are a big deal in the spring time. I had several and it was so easy to use Angi to help sort it out. This company/these gentlemen were ready to help and met my busy schedule. They were on time, reasonably priced, polite, updated me on their progress and patient.

Mister Sparky of Northern Delaware is a locally/owner run and operated business. We specialize in all facets of residential and commercial electrical services. We understand the value of building life long relationships with our customers. Workmanship guaranteed. Prompt reply to your request.
"I called Mr. Sparky because I had 2 external outlets and 1 internal outlet not working (I found out later they were on teh same circuit. After setting up an appointment, Cody O. was dispatched to my home. He introduced himself and explained he would be looking at the outlets I called about and doing an evaluation to determine what, if any, other electrical needs my home had. He looked at the outside outlets and the garage outlets (but didn't test them, which I thought was odd) and explained they were on the same circuit. He looked at the breaker panel and the outlet beneath it. He asked about the smoke detectors and other electrical appliances in my home and wrote up 3 quotes. Each quote included enrollment in their maintenance plan and a varying number of electrical upgrades. The costs started At $4000 for all the bells and whistles to $2500 for about half the bells and whistles to $835 for just the outlet upgrades and the maintenance plan. I told him I would need to discuss it with my wife because we were not planning on that large an expense at this time. He encouraged me to call him that evening to get the repair scheduled since I needed the outlets fixed quickly. He then charged me the $75 service fee for coming by. After he left I spoke to a friend who recommended a master electrician in the area who came by looked at the outlets and tested them, checked the same panel and outlet beneath it in the basement but when he looked at the outlet, he noticed the GFCI had tripped and pushed it in restoring power to the 3 outlets in question! He was in and out of my home in 15 minutes and had solved the problem whereas Cody was there for an hour and was so busy trying to upsell me, he couldn't be bothered to fix the actual issue. I spoke to a manager a few days later and expressed my displeasure and he understood my frustration and refunded my service fee. He also offered to come by himself and make the upgrades himself at a discounted rate for my inconvenience! I appreciate the attempt to make things right when service didn't meet the expectations. I may give them another shot some other time."

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.
