How much does a panel upgrade cost in Modesto?

It depends on the amperage you're moving to, the state of your electrical system, and whether the utility needs to disconnect service first. We give a written quote after seeing the panel in person, not a phone estimate. Most upgrades in the Modesto area land in a predictable range once we know the amp count and whether a subpanel is involved.

Will my old wiring need to be replaced before you install an EV charger?

If the home still has older aluminum wiring or a panel with no open breaker slots, the electric vehicle charger installation becomes a small system upgrade first. We check this during the estimate visit, not after the wire's already run, so there are no surprises mid-job.

What is knob-and-tube wiring, and does my Modesto home have it?

It's an older wiring method, common in homes built before the 1950s, that used ceramic knobs and tubes instead of modern insulated cable. It's not built for today's loads, and insurance companies increasingly flag it. Knob-and-tube remediation usually means rewiring the affected circuits and updating the panel to match.

Popular Services by Our Electricians: Modesto, CA

Panel Upgrades and Circuit Installation

A 100-amp panel from the 1980s won't run a modern kitchen, an EV charger, and central air at the same time. Breaker trips become routine, and eventually something gets damaged. We install 200-amp panels, add dedicated circuits for appliances, and handle the permit and inspection process with Stanislaus County, so the system upgrade is done to code, not just done.

EV Charger Installation

Level 2 EV chargers need a dedicated 240-volt circuit, not a shared outlet in the garage. Our Modesto electricians size the circuit to your charger's specs, run the wire, and test it under load before we leave. If your panel doesn't have room, we handle that upgrade in the same visit whenever possible.

Lighting, Surge Protection, and Smart Systems

Interior and exterior lighting installation, LED lighting retrofits, whole-house surge protection, and smart home electrical systems all fall under one visit from one crew. A ceiling fan swap, a security camera run, holiday lighting circuits: we quote it upfront and finish it in a professional manner, not a rushed one.
