Electrical Panel Replacement Process

Straightforward Installation, No Surprises

We start with an assessment of your current electrical system and your power needs. This tells us exactly what size panel you need and whether any additional electrical work is required.

Next, we coordinate with PG&E to safely disconnect power, remove your old panel, and install the new one. We handle all the permit applications and schedule required inspections so you don’t have to deal with the paperwork.

The actual installation typically takes a full day. We test every circuit, make sure everything’s properly labeled, and walk you through your new electrical panel before we consider the job complete. Your power is restored the same day in most cases.

Everything Included in Your Panel Replacement

Your electrical panel replacement includes the new panel box, circuit breakers, proper grounding, and all necessary electrical connections. We install panels from trusted manufacturers like Square D, Siemens, and GE.

We handle permit applications, utility coordination, and all required inspections. If we discover any code violations or safety issues during the installation, we’ll address them as part of the project.

Many Ashby homes need capacity upgrades along with panel replacement. We can increase your home’s electrical service from 100 amps to 200 amps, giving you room for electric vehicle charging, pool equipment, or other high-demand appliances you might add later.

How long does electrical panel replacement take in Ashby?

Most electrical panel replacements take 6-8 hours to complete. We typically start in the morning and have your power restored by late afternoon. The timeline can extend if we need to upgrade your electrical service or address code violations, but we’ll discuss any additional work before proceeding. Weather rarely affects the installation since most of the work happens inside your home, though we do need to coordinate with PG&E for the power disconnect and reconnection.

Do I need a permit for electrical panel replacement?

Yes, electrical panel replacement requires a permit from Solano County. We handle all permit applications as part of our service, including the paperwork, fees, and scheduling required inspections. The permit ensures your installation meets current electrical codes and gives you documentation for insurance purposes. Some homeowners try to skip permits, but this creates problems when selling your home or filing insurance claims. We make sure everything is done properly and legally from start to finish.

What size electrical panel does my Ashby home need?

Most modern homes need at least a 200-amp electrical panel. If you’re replacing an old 100-amp panel, upgrading to 200 amps gives you capacity for electric vehicle charging, central air conditioning, and other high-demand appliances. We assess your current electrical usage and future needs during our initial consultation. Factors like home size, number of appliances, and whether you plan to add an EV charger or pool equipment all influence the panel size recommendation.

How much does electrical panel replacement cost in Ashby?

Electrical panel replacement typically costs between $2,000-$4,000, depending on the panel size, complexity of installation, and whether electrical service upgrades are needed. We provide detailed written estimates that include all materials, labor, permits, and inspections. The investment pays for itself through improved safety, increased home value, and the ability to use modern appliances without electrical issues. We’ll discuss financing options if the upfront cost is a concern.

Will my homeowner's insurance require electrical panel replacement?

Many insurance companies now require electrical panel upgrades, especially if you have an old fuse box or certain brands of circuit breakers with known safety issues. Some insurers won’t renew policies until outdated electrical panels are replaced. We can provide documentation of your new panel installation for your insurance company. A modern electrical panel often reduces your insurance premiums since it significantly lowers fire risk compared to older electrical systems.

Can you replace electrical panels in older Ashby homes?

Yes, we regularly replace electrical panels in older homes throughout Ashby and Solano County. Older homes often present unique challenges like outdated wiring, insufficient grounding, or non-standard installations. We’re experienced with these situations and can address code violations or safety issues we discover during the replacement. Sometimes older homes need additional electrical work beyond just panel replacement, but we’ll explain any additional requirements upfront so you can make informed decisions about your electrical system upgrade.
