Do you think it’s time to upgrade?
We don’t need to be Tim the Toolman to want an upgrade, but when it comes to our electrical panel, the question you have to ask isn’t whether you need bigger, but what is big enough.
When you’re thinking of upgrades to your home, whether they’re furnishing the basement, adding a hot tub or building a backyard shop, it’s important to understand the current load on your home and what’s going into the addition. A few electrical outlets won’t need nearly the same capacity as a welder or lathe in that shop you’ve been dreaming of.
A professional electrician won’t just do a cost estimate for you, but will calculate the proper capacity as it stands today and what you will require. Choosing the right partner to go with can mean the difference between getting a project that could power one home or two, which in turn could be a five thousand dollar job, or fifteen thousand.
