Residential Service and Meter Equipment: What Affects Scope and Cost

Key factors that shape the estimate

Utility requirements and coordination.

Existing equipment condition.

Capacity and panel upgrade scope.

Inspection and permit requirements.

Access to the service entrance.

What's assessed before pricing

Before a number is proposed, the project is reviewed for review of the existing service equipment; confirmation of utility requirements; discussion of capacity and panel coordination. This is why an in-person or detailed review leads to a more accurate estimate than a guess over the phone.

Getting an accurate estimate

Share as much detail as you can about the property and what you want. You'll receive a proposed scope and estimate based on the actual project, not a one-size-fits-all price.
