Panel Upgrades

An electrical panel, also known as a service panel, controls the electricity within your home and allows you to use your appliances. When the electricity from the power company flows into the service panel, the panel distributes it to each of the different breakers. If too much electricity flows in, the panel will trip a breaker or blow a fuse to prevent melting wires and electrical fires.

To ensure the safety of your home, it’s very important that your service panel:

FUNCTIONS PROPERLY - Your service panel needs to trip a breaker or blow a fuse if too much electricity flows through. If it doesn’t, your home is at risk for fires and other hazards.

IS LARGE ENOUGH - Your panel needs to be able to handle your power needs. If you add a large appliance to your load, you’ll likely need an upgrade to accommodate the increasing demand.

Meter Socket Replacement

An outside electrical meter box houses your home's electrical meter, which your utility company manages. Your meter box reflects the proper size of your meter and is covered by a waterproof casing that is typically able to be locked. The inside of the box contains the frame that holds the meter's wiring and sockets in the correct position.

You’ll want to replace your electrical meter box if your current system doesn’t hold enough power to meet your home’s demands. It’s also a good idea to replace your electrical meter box if you’re adding electrical systems to your home or building an addition.

Outlets & Switches

At some point in a home's life, installing new receptacles, switches, and light fixtures will be a good idea. The originals may be out of fashion, but they also wear out regardless. Since replacing outlets correctly relies on making new connections, these may be done poorly or wrongly. More than one electrical item may fail to work as a result of a single mistake. Other problems for replacing outlets come from forgetting to reattach a wire or attaching it in the wrong place. The number, color, and function of the wires at an outlet can be confusing if the original connections are lost track of.

Lights Fixtures & Ceiling Fans

Whether you’re building or remodeling your dream home, lighting design is about more than simply choosing a few fixtures and installing some fluorescent bulbs. It’s about balancing your aesthetic tastes with sustainability, energy efficiency and ease of use to create an illuminated space that perfectly fits your needs.

A good, well-working ceiling fan can make a huge difference in the comfortability of your home. Ceiling fans can also help make your home more energy-efficient since you can run your AC unit less, allowing your ceiling fan to circulate the air in your home and provide a light breeze.

With the right team guiding you, a custom lighting & ceiling fan design can create a beautiful new environment that adds value and makes your home a pleasure to live in.

EV Charging

Many individuals are opting to embrace electric cars. However, making the switch means that you’ll need to be able to charge your vehicle in an easy and sustainable way that fits your lifestyle. For most people, that will require installing an EV charging station in their home.

New Construction

A lot of time and money goes into a successful new construction project, so it’s imperative that the job is done right the first time around. This requires seasoned electrical contractors working alongside general contractors to ensure that the electrical wiring is professionally installed in a way that keeps the project moving forward, stays within budget and meets the homeowner’s current and future power needs.

APPLIANCE WIRING - Your new appliances will require ample electricity to ensure that they run properly. A miscalculation of your power needs during the construction stage can lead to costly and premature repairs. As such, BK Electrical Solutions will carefully consider the load that will be placed on your service panel, thus making sure that your electrical needs are met today and in the future.

ELECTRICAL PANEL INSTALLATION - The service panel is one of the most important components of your electrical system. It’s what distributes electricity to the various breakers in your home, moderating how much power flows in to prevent melting wires and electrical fires. After evaluating your power needs, we’ll select and install an appropriately sized panel that can keep your system functioning safely and optimally for years to come.

Remodels & Additions

When remodeling your home, there’s far more to consider than just how the structure and framework of your house will change. You also need to think about your electrical needs early on in the renovation, to ensure that you’re able to power your new space and appliances now and in the future.

Here are just a few of the upgrades we routinely install for our clients:

// recessed lighting
// dimmers
// outlets
// hot tub wiring
// entertainment centers
// appliance wiring
// EV charging
// HVAC system power

Home Rewiring

The wiring in your home is a critical part of its structure. It ensures that the power supply and connected appliances function optimally, and it protects you from electrical fires and related hazards. It’s important that older homes are inspected and rewired to meet modern standards and preserve the integrity and safety of your home.

Home rewiring involves removing old, inefficient and dangerous wiring and devices such as breakers, outlets, or panels, and replacing them with an upgraded and modern system. However, it’s not always necessary to replace all of the wiring in your home throughout this process. In many cases, some of your existing wiring will be safe, so BK Electrical Solutions can perform a partial rewire to save you money.
