How long does a panel replacement take?
Most residential panel replacements are done in one day. Power is off for part of that day, and we'll tell you the timing ahead of time so you can plan around it.
Do I need 200 amps?
Most homes with central AC, an electric range and a dryer do best on 200A, especially if you plan to add a generator, EV charger or shop. We'll check your load and tell you honestly if you need it.
Does the utility company need to be involved?
For a service upgrade, yes. We coordinate the disconnect and reconnect with your utility or co-op. Any utility or co-op fees are separate from our price.
Is my old panel dangerous?
Some older panels, like Federal Pacific Stab-Lok and Zinsco, have a history of breakers that may not trip when they should. If you have one, or your home inspector flagged your panel, we recommend having it checked.
Do you upgrade commercial panels too?
Yes. We handle commercial service upgrades, 3-phase panels and new distribution for shops, offices and retail across East Texas.
