Why Hire an Electrician vs. DIY

DIY is everywhere, and many people succeed in carrying out a full range of household repairs. While many of these jobs are ok to do yourself, electrical repairs are not one of them. Electrical currents can cause serious harm and can result in real emergencies, even death.

This is why calling a professional electrician is so critical, especially if you are looking to have any electrical repairs or installations done in your home or business. At Southwest Florida Electric Inc., we take your safety seriously. All of our technicians are thoroughly trained and have the proper tools to safely handle your electrical panel upgrades.

When to Upgrade Your Breaker Panel

Your breaker panel normally does not need much maintenance. However, if you notice any of the following, it may be time to look into breaker panel replacement:

  • Service Cables Are Damaged: These are the cables that run from the structural mount of your house to the breaker panel.
  • You Need a New Appliance: If you need to install a new large appliance it is also recommended that you upgrade your breaker panel.
  • Water Damage: If the breaker panel has experienced water damage, it is time to get it replaced.
  • Broken Breaker Panel: If your breaker panel has obsolete components, we also recommend panel replacement.
