Panel and Breaker Services We Handle
Whether you need a full 200 amp electrical panel upgrade Woodstock GA or just a subpanel for a garage workshop, we cover the whole service entrance.
100 to 200 Amp Service Upgrade
Most Woodstock homes built before 1990 run a 100 amp service that cannot keep up with a heat pump, EV charger, and induction range at once.
Subpanel Installation
Adding a detached garage, finished basement, or workshop in Cherokee County means you need a subpanel, not another extension cord.
Fuse Box to Breaker Panel Conversion
Fuse boxes still running in older Woodstock homes are a real hazard, especially when someone has stuffed a 30 amp fuse into a 15 amp circuit.
AFCI and GFCI Breaker Installation
Georgia code now expects arc-fault protection on bedroom and living-area circuits and ground-fault protection near water.
Whole-Home Surge Protection
Summer storms rolling through Woodstock take out electronics every year.
Service Mast and Meter Main Replacement
A corroded meter socket or bent service mast fails inspection and can leave you without power.

How a Panel Upgrade Actually Goes
A panel swap is a half-day to two-day job depending on whether we are replacing the mast and meter.
-
Step 1
Inspect and measure
We open the panel, check for heat damage, burning smells, and double-tapped breakers, then clamp-meter your service to see what you are actually drawing.
-
Step 2
Quote and permit
You receive a written scope with the panel brand, amperage, and breaker count spelled out. We pull the Cherokee County electrical permit the same week so the inspection is already on the calendar.
-
Step 3
Install and label
Power comes off, the old panel comes out, and the new one goes in with torqued lugs, new grounding rods, and AFCI or GFCI breakers where code calls for them.
-
Step 4
Test and inspect
We test each breaker under load, verify voltage with a multimeter, and walk the inspector through the install. Once it passes, we show you the panel and explain what each breaker controls.
Panel Problems We Fix in Woodstock
Most panel calls start with something small: a breaker that trips when the dryer kicks on, a faint burning smell near the panel, or lights that dim when the AC…
Breakers trip every time the AC and dryer run together
- What we do
- That pattern usually means your service is overloaded, not that the breaker is bad.
- Call right away if
- The breaker trips every time the AC and dryer run together.
Flickering lights and a warm panel cover
- What we do
- Warmth at the panel and flickering lights point to loose connections or a failing main breaker.
- Call right away if
- The cover is warm or lights flicker when appliances start.
Burning smell near the fuse box or panel
- What we do
- A burning smell means stop using the panel and call.
- Call right away if
- You smell burning near the panel or see scorch marks.
No room left for an EV charger or generator
- What we do
- A full panel with no open slots does not mean you cannot add anything.
- Call right away if
- Every slot is full and you need an EV or generator circuit.
What Woodstock Customers Say
Our 1978 house in Towne Lake still had the original 100 amp panel. Every time the AC and microwave ran together, the kitchen breaker tripped. They ran a load calculation, showed me the numbers, and installed a 200 amp Square D panel with AFCI breakers. Passed inspection first try.
Priya R.Homeowner, Towne Lake
I smelled something hot near the panel on a Sunday night and called. They walked me through killing the main over the phone and had a tech out first thing Monday. Turned out to be a double-tapped breaker that had been cooking for years. Replaced the panel and labeled everything.
Marcus T.Homeowner, Downtown Woodstock
Needed a subpanel for a detached garage workshop off Bradshaw Farm. They ran the feeder, separated the grounds and neutrals properly, and even labeled which breaker fed the welder outlet. Price matched the quote exactly, no add-ons at the end.
Dana K.Homeowner, Bradshaw Farm
Got three quotes for a fuse box to breaker panel conversion. These guys were the only ones who actually opened the panel and showed me the corroded meter socket before quoting. Took a full day with the mast replacement, but the power came back on the same evening.
Hector V.Homeowner, Wyngate
Added a Level 2 EV charger and my old panel had no room. They installed a subpanel and a dedicated 50 amp breaker for the charger, then tested it under load. Clean work, and they cleaned up the drywall dust before leaving. Would use again.
Aisha B.Homeowner, Woodstock Knoll
After the ice storm we wanted a generator interlock so we could run the furnace and fridge. They installed the interlock kit and labeled exactly which breakers to flip. Not the cheapest quote I got, but the only one who explained the load limits clearly.
Tom S.Homeowner, Deer Run

Electrical Panel Upgrade Woodstock GA Questions
These are the questions we get most often on the phone.
Still have a question?
Describe what you are seeing and we will point you to the right next step.
(470) 742-0135We give you a written, itemized quote before any work starts.
We do, and we are local. We pull the Cherokee County electrical permit, install Square D, Eaton, or Siemens panels, and meet the inspector on site. We cover Towne Lake, Downtown Woodstock, Eagle Watch, Bradshaw Farm, and the surrounding Cherokee County area. Call (470) 742-0135 and we will schedule a look.
Georgia does not force you to upgrade a working panel, but code requires it in certain cases: adding a large load like an EV charger or tankless water heater, replacing a fuse box, or failing an inspection due to double-tapped breakers or missing AFCI and GFCI protection. If your panel is a 100 amp service with no open slots, an upgrade is usually the right call.
We do all three. We also label every breaker, torque every lug to spec, and photograph the panel before the cover goes back on. Ask any electrician you call whether they pull the permit themselves.
If you smell burning near the panel, see scorch marks, or the main breaker will not reset, kill the power at the main and call us at (470) 742-0135. We treat burning smells and heat damage as urgent calls and get a tech out the same day. Do not keep resetting a breaker that trips immediately.
