Home  /  Services  /  Panel upgrades

Panel & service upgrades, 100 to 200 amps and up.

When a house needs more power than its panel can give, we size the new service with a load calculation, then change the panel, meter base and service so it is ready for what you are adding.

03  /  Questions

Before you call.

Not always. A load calculation shows what the house actually draws, so you only pay for the service you need.

Usually most of one day for a panel change. We will tell you the plan before we start.

Sometimes that is the better answer, for a garage, shop or addition. The load calc tells us which.

Lafayette, Broussard, Youngsville, Carencro, Scott, Duson, Breaux Bridge and New Iberia.

Send a photo of the panel.

Call or text, or email a photo of the panel with the door open and what you are adding. That is usually enough to start.
