As today’s homes become more reliant on technology, smart systems, and energy-hungry appliances, your old electrical system may not be up to the task. If you’re constantly tripping breakers, using extension cords as permanent solutions, or still running on a fuse box, it may be time for an electrical service upgrade.
At Cellino Plumbing, Heating, and Electric, we provide professional electric panel and service upgrades throughout Buffalo and Western New York. Our licensed electricians bring your system up to code, boost your home electrical capacity, and ensure your property is safe, efficient, and ready for the future.
An electrical service upgrade involves replacing your existing electric meter, service entry cable, and often your electric panel to increase the amount of power your home can handle safely.
Many older homes were originally built to handle 60 or 100 amps of power, which is far less than what’s needed today. With a service upgrade, we typically raise your home’s capacity from 100 to 200 amps, allowing you to safely run more appliances, heating and cooling equipment, and advanced electronics.
If you’re planning a major renovation, adding central A/C, or just tired of flickering lights and limited outlets, a home electrical capacity increase might be just what you need.
If your electrical system is outdated or overburdened, it could be unsafe and it’s definitely inefficient. Here are some signs your home may need an electrical service upgrade in Buffalo:
Even if you’re not experiencing obvious symptoms, upgrading your electrical service can future-proof your home, boost resale value, and improve safety. Most modern homes require at least 200 amps to support today’s energy needs.
At Cellino, we handle every step of the process from the initial assessment to working with the utility company and final inspection. Our expert team ensures your electric panel and service upgrade is done safely, quickly, and in full compliance with local codes.
We begin by evaluating your current service capacity, electric panel condition, and your home’s power demands. We’ll provide a detailed estimate and walk you through your upgrade options.
Before any work begins, we file the necessary requests with your utility provider to schedule a safe temporary disconnect and reconnect during the upgrade process.
On upgrade day, our licensed electricians will:
We also label all circuits clearly and ensure your system is ready for any future expansions.
Once installation is complete, we schedule a local inspection and coordinate with the utility company to reconnect service. We’ll walk you through your new system and answer any questions you may have.
Most electrical service upgrades are completed in one day with minimal disruption to your home.
