Frequently asked questions
How do I know if I need a panel upgrade?
Warning signs include frequently tripping breakers, flickering lights, a warm or buzzing panel, fuses, or plans to add an EV charger, heat pump or other large loads.
How long will my power be off?
Most panel replacements take most of one day with the power off for part of it. We'll schedule a time that works for you.
Do you replace recalled or problem panels?
Yes. If your home has a panel brand with known safety issues, we can replace it with a modern, reliable panel.
