Jimco Electric has been solving critical electrical problems for Burr Ridge homeowners for 25 years. We specialize in emergency electrical repairs and residential panel upgrades, focusing on the electrical issues that actually matter to busy families.
We’re licensed, bonded, and insured, with extensive experience handling everything from flickering lights to complete electrical panel replacements. Our team understands the unique electrical challenges that come with Burr Ridge’s mix of older established homes and modern electrical demands.
What sets us apart is our focus on emergency response and practical solutions. When your electrical system isn’t working properly, you need someone who can diagnose the real problem quickly and fix it right the first time.
Your electrical panel upgrade starts with a thorough assessment of your current system and your home’s electrical needs. We evaluate your existing panel capacity, check for code compliance issues, and determine the right amperage for your household’s demands.
Next comes the permit process and scheduling with your utility company for any necessary service disconnection. We handle all the paperwork and coordination so you don’t have to navigate the bureaucratic requirements yourself.
The installation typically takes 4-8 hours depending on the complexity. We install your new panel, upgrade any necessary wiring, and ensure everything meets current electrical codes. After installation, we test the entire system and walk you through the new setup.
Finally, we coordinate the required inspections and restore full power to your home. You’re left with a modern electrical system that can handle your current and future electrical needs safely and reliably.

Your electrical panel upgrade includes everything needed to bring your electrical system up to modern standards. Most Burr Ridge homes benefit from upgrading to a 200-amp panel, which provides sufficient capacity for today’s electrical demands including central air conditioning, modern appliances, and potential future additions like EV chargers.
The service includes permit handling, utility coordination, professional installation, and all required inspections. We also address any wiring upgrades needed to support your new panel capacity and ensure everything meets current Illinois electrical codes.
For Burr Ridge homeowners, this is particularly important given the area’s mix of established homes that may have older electrical systems. Many homes built before the 1990s have 100-amp or smaller panels that simply can’t handle modern electrical loads safely. The upgrade process also qualifies for federal tax credits up to $600, making it a smart financial decision for homeowners planning other electrical improvements.
