Pricing
How much does electrical work cost?
Electrical pricing depends on the scope, permit requirements, and the age of your wiring. National ballpark figures:
| Job | Typical range |
|---|---|
| Service call / troubleshooting | $100–$300 |
| Outlet or switch replacement | $125–$300 each |
| Ceiling fan installation | $150–$500 |
| Level 2 EV charger installed | $800–$2,500 |
| Panel upgrade (100A → 200A) | $1,800–$4,500+ |
Most electrical work beyond simple replacements requires a permit and inspection. A licensed electrician will pull it for you. Ranges are national estimates for general information only. Your provider sets the actual price.
Tips for hiring an electrical pro
- Always hire a licensed electrician; unpermitted electrical work can void insurance and fail a home inspection.
- Ask if permits and inspection fees are included in the quote.
- For EV chargers, ask whether your panel has capacity or needs an upgrade or load management device.
- Get a written scope listing materials, fixtures, and any drywall patching.

Electrical FAQs
When is a flickering light an emergency?
If flickering comes with a burning smell, buzzing, scorch marks, or warm outlets, turn off the circuit at the breaker and call an electrician right away. These can be signs of a loose connection that can cause a fire.
Do I need a panel upgrade for an EV charger?
Not always. Many homes with 200-amp service can add a Level 2 charger. Older 100-amp panels may need an upgrade or a load-management device. An electrician can do a load calculation.
Can I replace an outlet myself?
Some homeowners do simple like-for-like swaps, but local codes vary, and anything involving new circuits, GFCI/AFCI requirements, or panels should be handled by a licensed electrician.
How long does a panel upgrade take?
Usually one day of work, plus coordination with your utility to disconnect and reconnect power and a final inspection.
