Questions

When does a home need a panel upgrade?

Breakers that trip often, a fuse box, or adding an EV charger, heat pump or hot tub are the usual reasons.

Do I need whole-home surge protection?

If storms or outages are common, a panel surge protector protects appliances and electronics for a modest cost.

Is flickering or a burning smell an emergency?

Yes — switch off that circuit and choose Emergency when you book.
