Electrical Panel Replacement & Service

Usually the range for how much it costs to replace a residential electrical panel is within $1800 to $3500, but this heavily depends on the panel. We recommend scheduling an appointment so we can assess the project and provide an accurate assessment.

If you need to know how much is a new electrical panel for commercial electric panels (or to get an assessment for a residential electric panel service), contact us.

It's best to have easy access to the panel in case of an emergency, so covering isn't usually recommended. You might know exactly where the electric panel is covered/hidden, but a guest, house-sitter, or emergency personnel will struggle to find it.

That being said, if you really want to cover your electric panel, we've seen solutions where people place a picture with a deep frame/box over the panel. If you do this, MAKE SURE everyone in the house knows that the electric panel is hidden behind it in case they need to access it.

If you're attempting to wire a generator to an electrical panel yourself and you aren't an electrician, STOP. Attempting to DIY a project like this can seriously injure your property, yourself, or a loved one. A 'can-do' attitude is NOT recommended in this type of situation, so get a licensed electrician for this - do NOT attempt a DIY solution.

Buzzing from an electrical panel could be a faulty breaker, or possibly even arcing in the panel. Contact us and we'll promptly come out and assess/fix the problem before it progresses to something more serious.

Electrical panels typically last about 30-ish years. If you're not sure how old your panel is and are wondering whether it's time to replace it, contact us for an assessment.

Grounding an electrical panel involves a grounding electrode. Hammered 8ft into the ground. If you're facing a project where this is needed, please don't attempt this task unless you're an experienced licensed electrician (if you found this because you had to look online for the answer, that's probably not you).

Please contact us and we'll get our licensed, insured, and bonded electrician on the job promptly.

If you need to label an electrical panel, you can buy specific panel labels (check your local home improvement store). The job usually takes two people, one walking around and checking what's on/off, and the other turning each breaker on and off and then writing on the labels.

Most residential houses require 200amps. However, this depends on your specific situation, so consult a licensed electrician to know for sure.

PLEASE hire a licensed electrician if you're wondering whether it's okay to mess with anything electrical without turning the power off. You should NOT attempt any electrical work (even changing out a simple light fixture) without turning the power off AND double-checking that there's no power flowing.

Flipping a switch and assuming that's all that's needed before messing with wires, outlets, etc. is what causes a lot of electrical accidents and injuries.

Please contact us and our licensed, bonded, and insured electricians will ensure that every project is completed safely and effectively.
