Electrical Panel Upgrade in Edgewood, WA

Perched on the north bluff overlooking the valley, Edgewood features spacious residential properties and custom homes. Many built in the 1960s and 1970s still rely on 100-amp service panels. Modernizing with cold-climate heat pumps and EV chargers requires a 200-amp service heavy-up.

Breaker Tripping Under Heat Pump Heating Loads

Older 100-amp main breakers cannot support the combined load of auxiliary heat strips, water heaters, and electric ranges.

What we do

We upgrade your service to 200-amp copper bus equipment, doubling usable power capacity.

dangerous

Hazardous Obsolete Zinsco and FPE Panels

Original panels with defective breaker stabs fail to trip during short circuits, risking hidden wall framing fires.

What we do

We remove defective panels, install modern Square D or Eaton hardware, and certify safety for underwriters.

electric_car

Crowded Panels with No Space for EV Chargers

Suburban acreage properties lack physical breaker slots for Level 2 EV charging stations or outbuilding power.

What we do

A 40-circuit 200A panel provides plenty of dedicated breaker spaces for EV chargers and future additions.

Reviews

What Puyallup customers say

Rated 4.9 out of 5 across 184 customer reviews.

Our 1980s breaker panel started buzzing violently during an afternoon windstorm when our heat pump kicked on. Pro Electrician had a truck at our home within 40 minutes, identified loose bus bar connections, and replaced the failing breakers safely.

David R.

South Hill, Puyallup, WA

Living in a 1920s historic craftsman home, our insurance required knob-and-tube mitigation. Their team rewired our attic and living spaces without damaging our lath-and-plaster walls. Clean, courteous, and passed L&I inspection with flying colors.

Patricia M.

Downtown Puyallup, WA

After repeated winter storm power outages on the plateau, we decided on a Generac standby generator with an automatic transfer switch. The team handled the permits through Bonney Lake seamlessly and completed the installation with outstanding craftsmanship.

Robert K.

Bonney Lake, WA

Installed a Tesla Wall Connector in our finished two-car garage. They ran conduit neatly along the ceiling joists, installed a 60-amp dedicated breaker, and completed the job in under three hours with zero mess.
