Panel & service upgrades
When the panel is the problem
A lot of the calls we get are really panel calls. Breakers that will not hold, lights that dim when the dryer starts, a new appliance or charger that has nowhere to land. Older homes here were wired for a fraction of the load a modern household puts on them, and no amount of work downstream fixes a service that is simply too small.
Signs you may need an upgrade
- Breakers that trip repeatedly or will not reset
- Lights that dim when large appliances start
- A full panel with no room for new circuits
- Fuse box, or a panel with known-defective brands
- Scorch marks, buzzing, or a warm panel cover
- Adding an EV charger, hot tub, heat pump or shop
- Insurance or a home sale flagged the electrical service
