How much does a panel upgrade cost in San Jose?

A 200-amp panel upgrade in the San Jose area costs $1,800–$4,500 depending on complexity. A straightforward panel swap averages $2,500–$3,500. If your meter base also needs replacement or the utility requires a riser upgrade, expect $3,500–$4,500.

Do I need a panel upgrade for an EV charger?

Most Level 2 EV chargers require a dedicated 50-amp circuit. If your panel is 100 amps or less, you'll likely need an upgrade to 200 amps. Many San Jose homes built before 2000 have undersized panels. We can assess your capacity and handle the full upgrade plus charger installation.

How much does EV charger installation cost?

EV charger installation in San Jose costs $500–$2,500 for labor, depending on the distance from your panel to the charger location and whether a panel upgrade is needed. A simple installation with the panel in the garage averages $500–$800.

Do I need a panel upgrade for an EV charger?

If your home has a 200-amp panel with available capacity, usually not. However, many San Jose homes have 100-amp panels that can't safely support a 50-amp EV circuit on top of existing loads. We assess your panel before quoting.

How much does it cost to rewire a house in San Jose?

Whole-house rewiring in San Jose costs $8,000–$25,000 depending on home size, accessibility, and whether walls need to be opened. A typical 1,500 sq ft home averages $10,000–$15,000. Homes with easy attic/crawlspace access cost less than those requiring extensive wall work.

How long does rewiring take?

A full rewire takes 5–10 days for an average San Jose home. You can typically remain in the home during the work, though power to certain areas will be off at times. Drywall patching and painting after the electrical work adds 1–3 days.

We want to give a massive shout-out to Sean for the incredible work he did upgrading the LED lighting in our office and four classrooms. Not only was he professional, on time, and impeccably clean, but he also gained a whole new fan club! Our students loved watching him work, and for the day, Sean was the "superhero" of the school. Thank you, Sean, for your expertise and for being so patient and kind with our curious students. Our space has never looked brighter! 💡✨

Our HOA required us to replace our old panel due to insurance concerns, and we’re so glad we chose this company. They handled everything from start to finish — even pulling the proper permit — which gave us peace of mind. Compared to others in our community, this was by far the best experience: no extensive patch work was needed, and everything was done cleanly and professionally. The team was efficient, courteous, and detail-oriented. Highly recommend them for anyone needing panel replacement or electrical work.
