Overview

An aging or undersized panel can't keep up with today's demands — EV chargers, heat pumps, induction ranges, and home offices all draw more power than older services were built for. We upsize your service, replace the panel, and bring everything up to current code so the rest of your home has clean, reliable capacity to grow into.

What's included

  • Load calculation to right-size your new service
  • 100A → 200A (or larger) service upgrades
  • Panel and breaker replacement with labeled circuits
  • Grounding and bonding brought up to current code
  • Permitting and coordination with your utility
  • Final inspection sign-off

When you might need this

  • Adding an EV charger, heat pump, or hot tub
  • Frequent breaker trips or an over-full panel
  • Federal Pacific, Zinsco, or fuse panels
  • Whole-home remodels and additions

How it works

  1. 1

    On-site assessment

    We review your current service, planned loads, and utility setup, then run a load calculation.

  2. 2

    Permit & schedule

    We pull the permit, coordinate any utility disconnect, and book a date that limits downtime.

  3. 3

    Upgrade day

    We swap the panel, re-land and label every circuit, and verify grounding and bonding.

  4. 4

    Inspection

    A jurisdiction inspector signs off, and we walk you through your new panel.

Frequently asked

Will my power be out during the upgrade?

Yes — power is off for most of the day while we swap the panel. We schedule to minimize disruption and restore service the same day.

Do I need a 200A service?

Not always. Our load calculation tells us exactly what your home needs now and with planned additions, so you don't pay for more than necessary.

Is a permit really required?

For panel and service work, yes. Permitting and inspection protect you and keep the work insurable and code-compliant.
