Electrical FAQ

When do I need an electrical panel upgrade?

If you have fuses, an outdated 60-100 amp panel, frequent breaker trips, or are adding EV charging or a heat pump, an upgrade may be needed.

How much does it cost to rewire a house?

Rewiring costs average $2,000-$9,000 depending on home size, accessibility, and panel condition.

Can I do electrical work myself?

Small DIY tasks like replacing outlets are common, but anything involving the panel, new circuits, or major wiring should be done by a licensed electrician.
