"Started off through messaging via Angie's List and received a call from their call center / customer support - set up a callback to get a quote via phone. The next phone call I received was from Mike (Manager) whom listened to the request for a quote and provided a high overview on the following steps needed for the 200 amp panel box replacement - including potential timeframe for completion. After a quick site visit, Mike took care of setting up the remainder including the permit. A couple days later Scott (Technician) arrived and within 3 hours completed the job - replacing the box, clean-up, and ensuring all connections were up/running. The following day there was one more visit for inspection. Overall, I received plenty communications via email and phone (mobile) from Mr Electric to keep me posted on each step. Great service, fair pricing (parts/labor/permit), and great communication."

"Really nice and serviced same day as quote. Even took the time show us how the electrical wiring was set up in our older home so we know how to handle the issue ourselves the next time we want to change out light/fan fixtures. Not many companies would be willing to do that anymore!"
A win for the owners of this panel change.
Ready to label and get inspected
This is guaranteed to provide adequate electric needed to provide heating and cooling on demand.
Panels are installed and look great.
Without yearly inspections of your electrical services in your home this could happen to you. This is the panel that failed and we upgraded.

Electrical questions, answered by experts

If you notice flickering lights, frequent outages, warm outlets, or burning odors in your Newport home, these are clear signs to schedule electrical work. Rising utility bills or notifications from your insurance company may also indicate the need for upgrades. Pay attention to issues that worsen during heavy AC or heating use, or when planning to sell or renovate a historic property.

Helpful?

After finishing electrical work in Newport, it’s important to promptly schedule a final inspection to confirm compliance with local codes. Retain all permits and inspection records, especially if your property is in a historic district. Transitioning to ongoing maintenance, test GFCI outlets monthly due to Newport’s humidity, and arrange annual electrical system checks before peak summer and winter seasons. Review surge protection yearly, as storms are frequent.

Helpful?

Newport’s humid summers and chilly winters require electrical components that can withstand moisture and temperature fluctuations. Because thunderstorms are common in the Ohio Valley, surge protection and reliable grounding are essential. In flood-prone Newport areas, consider installing elevated panels and using water-resistant materials. Scheduling electrical work in spring or fall helps avoid extreme weather and ensures safer, more efficient installations.

Helpful?

Homes in Newport built before the 1980s, particularly those in historic neighborhoods or near the river, often benefit from electrical upgrades. Signs your home may need work include an old fuse box, outdated panels, frequent breaker trips, or if the house is over 40 years old. Insurance providers may require electrical improvements in older Newport homes to maintain coverage eligibility.

Helpful?

Common mistakes in Newport include skipping required permits, overlooking historic district guidelines, and using materials unsuited for the area’s humidity. Homeowners sometimes neglect surge protection during frequent storms or fail to elevate electrical panels in flood-prone neighborhoods. Attempting complex electrical upgrades in older Newport homes without a qualified contractor can result in safety hazards and code violations.
