AvailabilitySame-week visits
HoursMon–Fri 8am–6pm
Call before 10am and we can often get someone out the same day to look at your panel; otherwise expect an appointment within two to three business days. On the day of the upgrade, a licensed electrician arrives with the new panel, coordinates the required power shutoff with Snohomish County PUD, and walks the property with you first to confirm circuit labeling and any code items like AFCI or GFCI protection before pulling permits and starting work.
Local knowledge
What's different about electrical panel upgrade in Everett
Here is what our techs actually see on Everett jobs, season after season.
Many homes in Everett's Riverside, Bayside, and Port Gardner neighborhoods were built between 1900 and 1955 and still run on original 60-amp fuse panels or early Federal Pacific breaker panels that can't support modern HVAC, EV charging, or kitchen loads.
Snohomish County PUD requires a utility disconnect and re-energization appointment for any panel swap, which we schedule directly so you're not left without power longer than necessary.
Everett's wet winters and coastal humidity accelerate corrosion in older outdoor meter bases and panel enclosures, something we check during every upgrade estimate.

How a Everett electrical panel upgrade visit works
1
Phone Consultation
We ask about your current panel size, any breaker trips or flickering lights you've noticed, and what you're adding, whether that's a heat pump, EV charger, or added kitchen circuits, then give you a same-call estimate range.
2
On-Site Assessment
An electrician inspects your existing panel, meter base, and grounding, checks amperage against your household load, and confirms the exact price before any work is scheduled.
3
Permit and Utility Coordination
We file the electrical permit with Washington State Labor and Industries and schedule the required disconnect and reconnect appointment with Snohomish County PUD so the outage window is as short as possible.
4
Installation Day
Power is shut off, the old panel is removed, the new panel and breakers are installed and labeled, and everything is tested under load before the utility restores service, usually within 4 to 8 hours total.
5
Final Inspection and Walkthrough
Once the local electrical inspector signs off, we walk the panel with you, explain the new breaker layout, and leave you with paperwork for warranty and future inspections.

Straight answers
Electrical Panel Upgrade in Everett — FAQ
How fast can you schedule a panel upgrade in Everett?
Most Everett requests get an on-site assessment within two to three business days. If you call before 10am we can sometimes fit in a same-day look, especially for no-power situations or a tripped main breaker that won't reset.
Will I be without power during the upgrade?
Plan on a power outage of about 4 to 8 hours on install day while we disconnect service with Snohomish County PUD, swap the panel, and get re-energized. Homes in Everett's older neighborhoods with harder-to-access meter bases sometimes take a bit longer.
Do I need a permit for a panel upgrade in Everett?
Yes. Panel upgrades require an electrical permit through Washington State Labor and Industries, and Everett properties also need utility coordination with Snohomish County PUD before the meter can be reset. We handle both as part of the job.
What size panel do most Everett homes need?
Older Everett homes with 60 or 100-amp fuse boxes typically move up to 150 or 200-amp panels to handle modern heat pumps, EV chargers, and induction ranges. We size the upgrade based on your actual electrical load, not a flat recommendation.
