Electrical Panel Upgrades
Denham Springs & Baton Rouge
Straight-Shooting & Honest Work
Let's be real: A lot of electrical companies will tell you that you need a brand new $4,000 panel when all you really need is a $150 breaker replacement. We don't do that.
At SoLit Electric, we believe in radical honesty. If your panel is a fire hazard, out-of-date, or you're adding a major appliance like an EV charger, we will give you a fair, honest price to upgrade it. If it just needs a minor repair, we will tell you the truth.
No job is too small for us, and no corporate upselling is allowed.
When Do You Actually Need a Panel Upgrade?
- You have an outdated brand: Federal Pacific (FPE) or Zinsco panels are known fire hazards and often fail to trip during overloads.
- You're running out of space: You are adding a new HVAC system, a whole-home generator, or an EV charging station and need more amperage.
- Flickering lights and tripped breakers: If you are constantly resetting breakers when you run the microwave and the vacuum at the same time, your home has outgrown its current electrical capacity.
- Insurance requirements: Many homeowners insurance companies in Louisiana will drop coverage if your panel is over a certain age or from a dangerous manufacturer.
