How much does an electrical panel upgrade cost in Indian Head Park?

Electrical panel upgrades in Indian Head Park typically cost between $1,300 and $3,000 for a standard 100-amp to 200-amp upgrade. The exact cost depends on your home’s specific electrical setup, the size of panel you need, and any additional electrical work required. We provide upfront pricing so you know exactly what to expect. Factors that can affect cost include the location of your current panel, whether any rewiring is needed, and if your meter box needs updating. We offer discounts for military, first responders, seniors, teachers, and students to help make this important safety upgrade more affordable.
You need a panel upgrade if you’re experiencing flickering lights, frequently tripping breakers, a hot electrical panel, or burning smells near your electrical box. These are serious safety warning signs that shouldn’t be ignored. Other signs include appliances that don’t run at full power, an old fuse box instead of circuit breakers, or a panel that’s 25+ years old. If you’re adding major appliances like an EV charger, electric heat pump, or upgrading your kitchen, your current panel might not have the capacity to safely handle the increased electrical load. We can assess your current system and let you know if an upgrade is necessary for your family’s safety.

The timeline depends on your home’s specific electrical setup and whether any additional work is needed, such as updating your meter box or running new wiring.

Our team works efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine. We’ll also coordinate with ComEd if any utility work is required, handling all the details so you don’t have to worry about it.
Yes, upgrading to a 200-amp panel gives you the electrical capacity needed for EV chargers, along with all your other electrical needs.

We can also install the dedicated circuit for your EV charger as part of your electrical upgrade project. This is much more cost-effective than trying to add an EV charger to an outdated electrical system that can’t handle the load.
