Understanding Your Quote: Customization Factors

Every home is unique. While our base theory remains the same, these site-specific factors help us tailor the perfect solution for you.

Materials & Build Class We select the right conductor for your load requirements—from Aluminum (#2 or 4/0) for standard efficiency to Copper (#4 or 2/0) for maximum conductivity. We also match your home’s aesthetic with the correct conduit type, whether that’s standard PVC, rigid EMT, or flexible SER cable.

Structural Integration We treat your home with respect. The siding type (Vinyl, Stucco, Brick, or Stone) dictates how we anchor the new service.

  • Solid masonry (brick/stone) or fragile surfaces (stucco/slate) may require specialized mounting solutions like strut rack systems to ensure a secure, damage-free install.

Site Access & Excavation (Underground Service) For underground feeds, we assess the distance from the meter to the house and the terrain density.

  • Trenching: Machine vs. Hand Digging based on yard access.

  • Restoration: Cutting/patching concrete or pavement if ground rods cannot be placed in soil.

Code Compliance & Safety We don’t cut corners. Our quote includes bringing your system up to current city/state codes.

  • Grounding: Updating water/gas line bonds and separating neutrals from grounds to eliminate objectionable current.

  • Permits: Handling all required city and utility paperwork.

  • Clearance: Ensuring overhead lines clear roofs/walkways and installing risers if necessary.

Electrical Load Calculation

The Blueprint for Your Home’s Capacity

Before you add heavy appliances, you need to know if your panel can handle the weight. A Load Calculation creates the official roadmap for your home’s power.

Service Snapshot

  • Service Type: Diagnostics & Planning
  • Turnaround: 24-48 Hours
  • Investment: $279.00 (Credited toward your upgrade if you hire us)

 

What Is It & Why It Matters

A load calculation is a physics check for your electrical system. It confirms exactly what your property is using now—and what it can safely handle in the future.

  • Safety First: Avoids nuisance tripping, flickering lights, and overheating wires.
  • Smart Spending: Determines if you actually need a heavy-up (service upgrade) or if your current panel has hidden capacity.
  • Code Compliance: Many cities require this document for rental permits or major renovation inspections.

Common Triggers

We recommend a Load Calculation before installing any of the following:

  • EV Chargers (Level 2)
  • HVAC Upgrades (Heat Pumps, Mini-Splits, Electric Heat)
  • Major Appliances (Hot Tubs, Electric Ranges, Tankless Water Heaters)

Expansions (Finished Basements, ADUs, Home Additions)

What Can Affect the Final Price of a Panel Replacement


Our panel replacement pricing is starting at and may increase depending on the home and job conditions, including:

Permits, Inspections & Utility Coordination

  • Permit and inspection requirements (city / state / county)

  • Scheduling and coordination with the electrical utility for disconnect/reconnect

  • Required inspection corrections or utility requirements

Number of Circuits & Panel Complexity

  • Total number of circuits to remove and reinstall

  • High circuit count panels (example: 30+ circuits)

  • Multiple panels, subpanels, or split-bus / multi-main setups

  • Panel labeling needs (unknown or unmarked circuits)

Access & Work Area Conditions

  • Tight working space or code clearance issues (panel location does not meet working space requirements)

  • Finished basements, crawlspaces, closets, or difficult access areas

  • Obstructions near the panel (shelves, plumbing, ductwork, etc.)

  • Additional time for setup, protection, and cleanup in finished spaces

Existing Wiring Condition

  • Brittle, damaged, or overheated conductors

  • Older cloth wiring, aluminum branch wiring, or mixed wiring types

  • Short conductors that require extensions/splices to reach the new panel

  • Previous non-code work that must be corrected for safety

Grounding & Bonding Updates

  • Missing or undersized grounding electrode conductor (GEC)

  • Ground rod installation or replacement

  • Bonding of metal water piping (if present and required)

  • Bonding of gas piping (when required)

  • Loose, missing, or incorrect grounding/bonding in the existing panel

Breaker Requirements & Code Updates

  • AFCI or GFCI breaker requirements (newer code safety protection)

  • Dedicated circuits required for appliances or code compliance upgrades

  • Replacement of incorrect or unsafe breakers

  • Tandem breaker limitations or circuit consolidation needs

Panel Location & Relocation Needs

  • Panel relocation required to meet code or safety requirements

  • Raising/lowering panel height to meet access rules

  • Moving the panel due to clearance, water exposure, or structural issues

Add-Ons & Customer Requested Upgrades

  • Whole-home surge protector installation

  • Generator interlock installation (if compatible)

  • New smoke/CO detector circuits (when requested or required)

Pricing

There are many variables that go into the cost of electrical work in your home or business. Some include: 

  • Is it an overhead or underground service?
  • Do the panels or meter need to be moved?
  • Are additional electrical loads being added?
  • Is the building stone or wood?
  • What company provides the power service?
