Service Upgrades

Upgrading your electrical service is crucial for homeowners who want to ensure their electrical system can handle the demands of modern living. Whether it's adding new appliances, lighting, or even a home office, the need for increased power capacity often arises. Our electrical service upgrade solutions are designed with your needs in mind, providing a safe, efficient, and reliable electrical system that keeps pace with your lifestyle.

Why Consider an Electrical Service Upgrade?

Over time, many homes on Long Island may have outdated electrical systems that are not equipped to handle the increased energy demands of today. Homeowners often face common concerns such as:

Frequent tripped circuit breakers

Flickering lights or dimming when devices are in use

Burning smells or unusual noises from outlets and switches

Inability to power multiple devices simultaneously

These issues can lead to significant safety risks, including electrical fires. Our team specializes in identifying these problems and recommending the best course of action for an electrical service upgrade tailored specifically to your home.

The Upgrade Process

Our service upgrade process consists of several key steps, ensuring that every aspect is handled with expertise and precision.

Step One: Initial Consultation

The first step begins with a comprehensive consultation. During this appointment, our licensed electricians will assess your current electrical system, its limitations, and your specific needs. We encourage you to voice any concerns you may have, whether it’s about your home’s safety, the logistics of the upgrade, or what to expect during the process. We understand that these upgrades can seem overwhelming, and our team is committed to communicating every detail clearly.

Step Two: Assessment & Recommendations

After the consultation, we conduct a thorough examination of your electrical panel and wiring, checking for age, wear, and compliance with local codes. Based on this assessment, we will provide a detailed proposal outlining the recommended upgrades, including the size and type of the new service panel and any additional circuitry that may be required. Common upgrades include replacing a 100-amp panel with a 200-amp panel, which can better accommodate modern devices. We detail the benefits of each option to help you make an informed decision.

Step Three: Planning the Installation

Once you approve the proposal, we plan the installation process to minimize disruption to your daily life. Our electricians will work with you to determine suitable times for the installation, and we will secure all necessary permits to comply with Long Island regulations. We know that different households have different routines, so we offer flexible scheduling options. Customers often express concern about how long the installation will take; on average, we typically complete service upgrades in a single day, depending on the complexity of the situation.

Step Four: The Upgrade Installation

On installation day, our team will arrive on time and fully equipped. We respect your home and ensure the work area is kept clean and organized. Our electricians will first disconnect the existing service, carefully replace it with the new panel, and reroute the wiring as necessary. Safety is paramount during this step. We adhere to strict safety protocols and conduct thorough checks to ensure everything is properly grounded and compliant with the National Electrical Code. Our team will proactively communicate updates so you are informed at every stage of the installation.

Step Five: Testing & Inspection

Once installed, we conduct extensive testing to ensure the new service panel operates efficiently. This is where many companies may overlook the implications of installation, but we take this step very seriously. Our electricians will check for any potential issues, ensuring that all circuits are functioning correctly and addressing any concerns before completing the project. After testing, we’ll conduct a walkthrough with you, explaining the new features of your upgraded panel and how to maximize your home’s electrical capabilities. Our goal is to leave you feeling confident and knowledgeable about your electrical system.
