WE PROVIDE THE BEST Electrical Panel Upgrade & Service Upgrade SERVICES

If your home still has a 60-amp or 100-amp panel, frequent breaker trips, flickering lights, or you're planning to add an EV charger or central AC — a panel upgrade is the right first step. Most updated homes need at least 200 amps; larger properties with pools, hot tubs, or multiple HVAC systems benefit from 400-amp service.

Our licensed master electricians perform a full load calculation before recommending a panel size, so you're never paying for more capacity than you need. We also replace recalled panels — including Federal Pacific and Zinsco — which are common in older Westchester homes and present a serious fire risk.

We handle every step of the upgrade from permit application through final inspection, including coordination with Con Edison on the service entrance. The result is a safe, code-compliant panel ready for the demands of modern Westchester living.
