What You Get
What’s Included in Every Sandiparks Panel Job
A proper residential panel upgrade isn’t just swapping out a box.
Here’s what’s included in every panel job we complete,
with no add-ons or surprise line items at the end.
Load Assessment
We evaluate your current panel, service entrance, and household load to determine whether you need a like-for-like swap, a service upgrade, or additional capacity for future needs, such as EV charging.
ESA Permit Application
Panel work in Ontario legally requires an ESA permit. We handle the application, fees, and inspection scheduling so you don’t have to deal with paperwork or chase the inspector.
Professional Installation
Your panel is installed by a licensed electrical team, not a helper or apprentice. The old panel is removed safely, the new one is wired cleanly, and the work area is left tidy.
Inspection Coordination
We schedule and attend the ESA inspection in person. Any adjustments the inspector requests are handled on the spot, not on a return visit weeks later.
Wondering about the cost?
The cost to replace a residential electrical panel depends on size, scope, and any service entrance work involved. Call us for a clear, honest quote.

When it comes to a residential electrical panel upgrade, experience matters more than almost any other factor. Ryan, our Master Electrician, has been upgrading and replacing panels across Southwestern Ontario since 2011. He has seen every scenario and knows how to complete the job correctly the first time.
As trusted residential panel replacement experts, we approach every job with the same discipline. We assess the full scope of work before quoting, communicate clearly throughout, and never rush work that affects your home’s safety.
We always obtain the correct ESA permits and coordinate the inspection. When you upgrade residential electrical panel systems without a permit, you risk insurance issues, failed home inspections at the time of sale, and uncorrected safety hazards.
Our residential panel replacement services include everything from initial load assessment to post-inspection follow-up. You’re not hiring someone to swap a box. You’re hiring a licensed professional who takes responsibility for a critical system in your home.

TESTIMONIALS
What Our Clients Say
FAQs
How much does it cost to replace a residential electrical panel in Ontario?
Replacing a residential electrical panel depends on the panel’s size, whether your service entrance needs to be upgraded, the age of your existing wiring, and ESA permit fees. A simple like-for-like replacement is less than a complete 200A service upgrade. We provide a detailed written quote after an on-site assessment, so you know exactly what you’re getting into before work starts.
How long does a panel upgrade take?
The majority of residential panel jobs take place in one day. When upgrading a residential electrical panel, we will need to shut off the power for a short time while we remove the old panel, install the new one, and reconnect the circuits. Power is restored before we leave. Sometimes a second day is needed for service entrance upgrades or unusually complex jobs.
Do I need a permit for a panel upgrade in Ontario?
Yes. Legally, any work to upgrade residential electrical panel systems must be done with an ESA permit and inspection. This will help you stay compliant, document the work if you sell your home, and maintain your insurance coverage. For each accepted quote, we arrange the permit application and inspection dates.
What are the signs my panel needs replacing?
Some of the most common indicators that you may need a residential panel replacement include frequent breaker trips, warm or discoloured breakers, flickering lights when appliances are running, burning smells near the panel, insufficient capacity for your needs, and known hazardous brands such as Federal Pioneer or FPE Stab-Lok. If you’ve noticed any of these, book an assessment.
Is 100A service still enough for a modern home?
If you have an older home with simple needs, 100A might still be viable. Most new homes and remodels require 200A or higher, especially if they include EV chargers, hot tubs, electric heating, or large additions. Residential service panel upgrades in London, ON, and the surrounding area are available to bring your home up to current standards.
What's the difference between a panel upgrade and a panel replacement?
A panel replacement involves replacing your old panel with a new one of the same amperage, typically because the old panel failed. A panel upgrade increases your overall capacity, usually from 100A to 200A, and may involve service entrance work. We provide both types of residential panel replacement services and advise you on which is best for you.
