Hear from Our Customers
Your lights stop flickering when you turn on the microwave. Circuit breakers stop tripping every time you use multiple appliances. Your home finally gets the reliable power it deserves.
That’s what happens when you upgrade your outdated electrical panel to handle today’s power demands. You get consistent electricity that works when you need it, where you need it.
Most Blue Island homes were built in the 1960s with electrical panels designed for basic lighting and a few small appliances. Now your home runs computers, large TVs, modern kitchen appliances, and maybe an EV charger. Your old 100-amp panel simply can’t keep up with 2025 electrical demands.
Jimco Electric has been Blue Island’s trusted electrical contractor since 1999, specializing in emergency repairs and critical electrical upgrades. When your power goes out or something smells like it’s burning, you need electricians who actually show up fast and fix it right.
We’re fully licensed, bonded, and insured – which protects you completely. More importantly, we understand electrical emergencies don’t happen at convenient times. That’s why we’ve built our entire business around quick response and reliable solutions.
Blue Island’s older homes mean electrical problems are common, but they don’t have to be dangerous. We know local housing, understand these electrical systems, and know exactly what it takes to bring 1960s wiring up to modern safety standards.
First, we evaluate your current panel and determine exactly what your home needs. This isn’t about selling you the biggest, most expensive option – it’s about getting you the right electrical capacity for safe, reliable operation.
Next, we handle permits and utility coordination. You don’t deal with bureaucracy or worry about code compliance. We manage all the technical details and paperwork while you go about your day.
Installation typically takes 6-8 hours. Power gets shut off only when absolutely necessary, and we restore it as quickly as possible. When finished, you have a modern electrical panel that handles your current needs plus room for future additions.
We clean up everything and walk you through your new system. You’ll understand how it works, where everything is located, and what to expect going forward.
Ready to get started?
Your electrical panel upgrade includes everything needed for safe, code-compliant installation. New main breaker panel, individual circuit breakers, proper grounding, updated connections, and full compliance with current electrical codes.
Blue Island’s housing stock shows most homes built in the 1960s, meaning electrical panels are 60+ years old. These systems typically max out at 100 amps, but modern homes need 200 amps minimum to operate safely with today’s electrical loads.
Our service includes adding circuits for high-demand appliances, EV charging stations, or home additions. We install subpanels for garages, workshops, or other areas needing dedicated electrical service.
Every installation includes proper permits, utility company coordination, and final inspection approval. You get a modern electrical system that’s safe, reliable, and ready for whatever you need to power.
