Panel & service upgrades

Older camps and homes were wired for a different era, long before modern kitchen appliances and EV chargers became standard loads. We run a load calculation, coordinate with your utility, and size your service to fit what you use now and what you’ll add later.

  • Electrical service upgrades
  • Panel replacements in older cottages & homes
  • Modern circuits such as EV chargers, mini-splits, HVAC equipment, modern appliances, and future potential equipment
  • Whole-home surge protection at the new panel

Questions

Common questions about home electrical work

How do I know if I need a panel upgrade?

Fuse boxes, a panel older than a few decades, or breakers that trip when two appliances overlap are the usual signs. Adding an EV charger or a mini-split often forces the issue, because the original service was not sized for those loads. We look at the panel, the electrical service, and what you want to add before we recommend an upgrade.

Do you inspect a home before a sale?

Yes. Owners listing a cottage, buyers in due diligence, and property managers all ask us to walk the panel, the receptacles, and the obvious code gaps before anyone is committed. It is an inspection, not a remodel: we tell you what is unsafe, what is outdated, and what can wait, then you decide what to fix.

Can you work on a lake house or seasonal cottage?

Yes, and a large share of the houses we wire sit on or near Lake Winnipesaukee or Squam Lake. Empty-winter houses have their own problems: well pumps, heat that has to run unattended, and panels that were never upgraded from a 1960s camp. We schedule around the season you are actually here.

Do you rewire older homes?

Yes. Cloth-insulated cable, knob-and-tube, ungrounded receptacles, and too few circuits show up in Lakes Region houses of a certain age. Sometimes the right job is a targeted branch, not a whole-house rewire. We offer everything from full home rewires to rewiring select circuits, whatever’s needed most.

Can you add a circuit for an appliance or a mini-split?

Yes. A microwave, a well pump, a hot tub, and a mini-split each want a circuit that is not shared with the rest of the kitchen or the garage. Sharing is how breakers trip. We run the new circuit from the panel, size the breaker, and leave the rest of the house alone.
