How much does it cost to upgrade electrical service to 200 amps?

The cost to upgrade electrical service to 200 amps varies by home and is confirmed after an on-site inspection. Most price differences come from what must be upgraded beyond the panel and the amount of labor involved. A licensed electrician will also perform a load calculation and check code compliance; older systems often need more work. Our electricians complete these upgrades throughout the Roanoke area, including Daleville homes. If you want a low-cost check first, we offer a $99 Electrical Safety Inspection that includes a thermal test and a connection review. If you see burn marks or smell burning at the panel, stop using affected circuits and call an electrician right away.

Common factors that change total cost and timeline:

• Panel location/clearances and whether relocation is needed.
• Service mast or meter base work and utility coordination.
• Grounding/bonding updates and AFCI/GFCI breaker requirements.
• Underground vs overhead service and any trenching.
