You flip a switch and the lights come on. Every time. Your appliances run smoothly without that unsettling dimming or flickering. No more circuit breakers tripping when you’re trying to get dinner ready or run the dishwasher.
That’s what happens when your electrical panel can actually handle what you’re asking it to do. Modern 200-amp service means your home’s electrical system works with you, not against you. You’ll sleep better knowing your family is protected from electrical hazards that come with outdated panels.
Your biggest electrical worry becomes a thing of the past. Instead of wondering if your panel can handle your daily needs, you’ll have the confidence that comes from a properly upgraded system that’s built to last.
We’ve been solving critical electrical problems for Winnetka homeowners for over two decades. We specialize in emergency electrical repairs and panel upgrades, particularly for the older homes that define this North Shore community.
Many of Winnetka’s beautiful early 1900s to 1920s homes still have electrical panels that weren’t designed for today’s power demands. We understand these unique challenges and have the experience to upgrade these systems safely and efficiently.
We’re licensed, bonded, and insured, with special discounts available for military, first responders, seniors, teachers, new customers, and students. When electrical problems strike, we’re the reliable choice Winnetka residents turn to for professional, prompt service.
First, we’ll assess your current electrical panel and calculate your home’s actual power needs. This isn’t guesswork—we’ll determine whether you need 200-amp service or if a different capacity makes more sense for your specific situation.
Next comes the preparation. We’ll coordinate with the Village of Winnetka for any necessary permits and schedule the utility disconnect. The actual installation typically takes 4-8 hours, during which we’ll replace your old panel with a modern circuit breaker system that meets current safety codes.
Finally, we’ll test everything to ensure your new panel is working correctly and walk you through what’s changed. Your power will be restored, and you’ll have a system that can handle your home’s electrical demands safely and reliably. We’ll also schedule any required inspections to make sure everything meets local code requirements.

Your electrical panel upgrade includes a complete replacement of your existing panel with a modern circuit breaker system. This typically means upgrading from an older 60-100 amp system to a 200-amp panel that can handle today’s electrical demands.
In Winnetka’s older homes, this often requires updating the electrical service from the utility connection point. The upgrade includes new circuit breakers, proper grounding, and AFCI/GFCI protection where required by current electrical codes.
Since many Winnetka homes were built when electrical needs were much simpler, the upgrade also addresses common issues like insufficient circuits for modern appliances, outdated wiring connections, and panels from manufacturers that are no longer considered safe. You’ll get a system designed to protect your family and property while providing the reliable power your home needs.
