100-amp to 200-amp service upgrades, outdated panel replacement, and subpanels — quoted flat-rate up front and inspected to code.
Every circuit in your house starts at the panel. When it's undersized or aging, you feel it everywhere: breakers that trip when two appliances run at once, no room for an EV charger or hot tub circuit, or an insurance company asking pointed questions about the brand name on the door.
Many older Treasure Valley homes still run 100-amp service — fine in the era they were built, tight for a modern home with air conditioning, electric appliances, and a car charger. And some still carry Federal Pacific or Zinsco panels, brands with documented failure histories that many insurers now flag or refuse outright. Upgrading to a modern 200-amp panel fixes the safety question and buys you capacity for everything you'll want to add later.
A panel at its limit protects itself by tripping. If resetting breakers is part of your weekly routine, the fix is usually capacity, not another reset.
These brands have known failure modes where breakers fail to trip under fault. Insurers increasingly surcharge or decline homes that keep them.
EV charger, hot tub, shop equipment, an ADU — big additions need panel space and service capacity. A load calculation tells us if your current service can take it.
A panel should be silent and cool. Buzzing, a warm door, or discoloration around breakers deserves a professional look promptly.
Estimates are always free, and you approve a flat-rate price before any work begins. No hourly guessing games, no surprise line items — and if you don't need something, we'll tell you.

Most residential panel upgrades are completed in a day. Power is off for part of that day while we make the swap; we'll give you the schedule up front and coordinate the utility disconnect and reconnect.
Yes. We coordinate the disconnect/reconnect with Idaho Power, pull the electrical permit, and meet the inspector. You don't need to manage any of it.
We'll give you an honest assessment, not a scare pitch. That said, Federal Pacific and Zinsco panels have documented failure histories, and many insurance companies now flag them. If yours is fine for now, we'll tell you that too.
For most homes, yes — a modern 200-amp service comfortably runs central air, an EV charger, and a spa. We confirm with a load calculation before recommending anything.
It depends on your service size, meter location, and whether wiring needs to be brought up to code at the same time. Estimates are free, and you approve a flat-rate price before any work begins.
Whether it's a small repair or a large project, estimates are free and same-day or next-day appointments are often available.
