Electrical Panel Upgrades in Pittsburgh & Beaver County
Your electrical panel is the heart of your home's electrical system. Many homes in the Pittsburgh area still have 60- or 100-amp panels that were never designed for today's air conditioning, kitchen appliances, home offices or EV chargers.

Signs you may need a panel upgrade
- Breakers trip often, or fuses blow
- Lights dim when appliances turn on
- You're adding an addition, a central AC, a hot tub or an EV charger
- Your panel is warm, buzzing, rusty or uses fuses
- Your home has an older panel brand with a known safety history, such as Federal Pacific Stab-Lok or Zinsco. Home inspectors and insurers often flag these.
What's involved
We assess your current service and load, recommend the right size (typically 200 amps for modern homes), and handle the work, including the permit, the inspection and coordinating the disconnect and reconnect with the utility.
