Electrical Panel Upgrades in Ukiah, CA

Adding an EV charger, a heat pump, or a room addition often means the existing panel has no room left. We size and install upgraded panels that give you the breaker slots and amperage headroom you actually need.

Panel Capacity for What You're Adding Next

Right-sized panel upgrades based on a real load calculation, not a guess.

Before recommending a panel upgrade, we run a load calculation per NEC Article 220 that accounts for your existing appliances, HVAC, and whatever you're planning to add, so you're not paying for capacity you'll never use. A lot of Mendocino County homes still run on 100-amp panels installed decades ago with only a handful of open breaker spaces, which becomes a hard limit the moment you want a NEMA 14-50 for an EV or a second heat pump condenser.

Upgrades typically mean a new panel enclosure, updated bus bar and breaker set, and often a meter main swap if the service conductors are undersized too. This work always requires a permit and PG&E coordination for the temporary power disconnect, and we schedule the outage window as short as possible, usually a few hours.

We also flag any double-tapped breakers or missing AFCI/GFCI protection we find in the old panel while we're in there.

  • NEC Article 220 load calculation before any quote
  • Added breaker capacity for EV chargers and HVAC
  • PG&E coordination for temporary service disconnects
  • Correction of double-tapped or overfilled breaker slots
  • Permit filing and inspection scheduling included
  • Same-day power restoration in nearly all cases

Residential Electricians Who Know Ukiah Homes

We work here every day, so we know what's behind the walls before we open them.

Much of Ukiah, Calpella, and Hopland was built long before modern loads, heat pumps, induction ranges, shop tools, EV chargers. We see the same failure patterns weekly: undersized 100-amp services, aluminum branch circuits, ungrounded two-prong outlets, and panels no longer supported by breakers you can buy.

We know which county desk handles your permit and which inspector will be at the meter.

Some of What We've Been Doing

Photos from real jobs around the county. If you want to see something closer to your own situation, ask and we'll send more.

Pendant lighting installation on a high ceiling

Sixteen fixtures hung off a new dedicated lighting circuit with dimming control. Layout snapped from the ceiling grid so every drop lines up from the doorway.

Large decorative chandelier installation in a dining room

Chandelier installation

A heavy multi-tier fixture set on a rated support box with new blocking above the ceiling. Wired to a dimmer that holds the warm color the owner wanted.

Crystal chandelier and bedroom lighting installation

Bedroom lighting and dimming

Chandelier, sconces, and accent lamps put on separate switch legs so the room can go from full light to bedside light without touching a lamp cord.

Glass chandelier hung in an entryway

Entry chandelier

Tiered glass fixture set on a fan-rated box with new ceiling support, then balanced and leveled by hand. Fed from a dimmed circuit so the entry is not blinding at night.

Multi-pendant cluster light installation in a showroom

Pendant cluster

Thirty-drop cluster over a seating area, each stem cut to a plotted height. Canopy circuit pulled during the build so no ceiling had to be reopened later.

Commercial restaurant lighting installation

Restaurant lighting

Recessed cove fixture plus pendant runs over the bar and dining floor. Wired on separate zones so the room can drop to evening levels without touching the kitchen.

Lobby and stairwell chandelier installation

Lobby and stairwell lighting

Two-story chandeliers, stair sconces, and gallery wall accent lighting on a single controlled system. Lift work and permit close-out handled with the general contractor.

Outdoor deck and step lighting installation

Deck and step lighting

Wet-rated step lights, soffit cans, and covered porch fixtures on an exterior GFCI circuit. Photocell and timer control so it comes on at dusk without anyone flipping a switch.

Bathroom vanity light fixture installation

Bathroom vanity lighting

Three-light vanity bar with seeded glass shades mounted over the mirror, plus recessed can lights in the ceiling. Dimmer-ready wiring so the room can be bright for morning or soft at night.

The Process

What Happens When You Call

No mystery, and no surprise invoice at the end.

01

You call or text

Someone in the Ukiah shop answers between 7am and 5pm. After hours, the emergency line goes to whoever is on call.

02

We book a two-hour window

You get a window and a name, so you know who is pulling into the driveway.

03

We diagnose before we quote

Nobody prices a panel from the driveway. We find the actual problem first, then price the fix.

04

You get the number in writing

Approve it, decline it, or sit on it for a week. Nothing gets opened until you say yes.

05

We finish and close it out

Cleanup, permit close-out where required, photos of what we did, and a two-year warranty on our labor.

FAQ

Electrical Panel Upgrades Questions

What customers ask us most before booking this service.

If your main panel is full and you're adding significant load like an EV charger or central AC, a full upgrade usually makes more sense than a subpanel. We'll run the numbers and tell you which is actually cheaper long term.

Still have a question? Call (707) 830-4053 and talk it through with an electrician.
