Your lights stop flickering when the air conditioner kicks on. Your breakers stop tripping every time you run the dishwasher and microwave together. You can charge your devices, run your appliances, and live your life without constantly worrying about electrical problems.
That’s what happens when you upgrade from a 60-amp panel that’s been struggling for decades to a modern 200-amp system designed for today’s electrical demands. You get reliable power that actually supports your lifestyle instead of limiting it.
Most Stone Park homes were built in 1964 with electrical systems designed for a different era. Your family deserves better than flickering lights and constant breaker trips.
Jimco Electric has spent 25 years handling the electrical emergencies that Stone Park homeowners face most. We specialize in the critical issues you can’t ignore – flickering lights, burning smells, overloaded panels, and urgent upgrades that affect your family’s safety.
We’re licensed, bonded, and insured, which means you’re protected when we work in your home. We understand that Stone Park’s older housing stock needs electricians who know how to safely upgrade systems that weren’t designed for modern electrical demands.
You’re not just another service call to us. We offer discounts for military, first responders, seniors, teachers, and students because we believe in supporting the community that has supported us for over two decades.
First, we inspect your current panel and electrical system to determine exactly what you need. No guessing, no upselling – just a clear explanation of what’s wrong and transparent pricing before any work begins.
Next, we handle all the permits and coordinate with ComEd to safely shut off power during the upgrade. We remove your old panel and install your new 200-amp system, typically upgrading the main service connection and circuit breakers to handle modern electrical demands.
Finally, we test everything to ensure your new panel works perfectly and meets all current electrical codes. We clean up completely and walk you through your upgraded system so you understand what we’ve done and how it protects your family.
The entire process typically takes 4-8 hours, depending on your home’s specific needs. You’ll have reliable electrical service that can handle everything from electric vehicle chargers to high-efficiency appliances without breaking a sweat.

We handle all permits and inspections required by Cook County and local codes. Our work comes with a guarantee, and we use quality materials built to last decades. You get upfront pricing with no surprises – we tell you exactly what you’re paying before we start.
