Placeholder ImageWhen Your Electrical Panel Needs Repairing or Replacing Here are signs that your electrical panel is in need of being repaired or replaced.

Electricity is a vital part of our homes. We use electricity to utilize so many gadgets in our daily lives, whether it’s our refrigerators, phones, air conditioners, and more. In order to make use of these devices, you will need a functional electrical panel. When your electrical panel gets damaged, it not only prevents you from using your electronic devices, but it can even be a fire hazard that puts people in danger. For these reasons, you should check on your panel and see if it needs to be fixed or replaced. Here are signs that your electrical panel is in need of being repaired or replaced.

Your Electrical Panel is Old

Electrical panels should be replaced once they get between 25 and 40 years old. If you have lived in your home for quite a long time without replacing your panel, it’s possible that you’ll need to contact an electrician and get your home fitted with a new one.

You don’t want to have an old panel because older ones are prone to failing you, and they have a tough time meeting the electrical demands of your house. Modern electronics in particular tend to demand more energy, and an old electrical panel might not be ready to meet their electrical demands.

Breakers Trip Regularly

If your breakers are always tripping, it could mean your panel has to get either fixed or upgraded. There are many causes for a breaker to be flipped, and the reasons can vary in severity. Sometimes, it’s because one spot around your house draws in too much electricity. In other cases, you may have faulty wiring. Regardless of the reason, an electrician should be called to either get your current panel repaired, or have it replaced with one that can meet the demands of your house.

Your Home Requires More Power

Modern living means your house is going to require plenty of electricity. You have to power so many appliances and gadgets, such as computers, phones, cooking appliances, and so many more devices. Older electrical panels simply don’t have the capacity to provide the electricity these devices need. Therefore, it will be in your best interest to invest in a brand new electrical panel. This way, your panel can be designed to be capable of supplying all of the electricity you need.

We could not be more pleased with the entire process and outcome of our experience with Albaugh & Sons. From the timely turnaround on coming out to give us an estimate, to the flexibility on adjusting our proposal, and to the quick and professional installation itself. I would highly recommend Albaugh & Sons to anyone in their area of serviceability.

So great to work with. Have had the pleasure of working with both sons who were knowledgeable and courteous. The entire process was easy from estimate to completion of my new deck. Both arrived on time, had my estimate for both deck and basement remodel in a couple of days. Danny, the project manager arrived on time and explained the plans, the work crew were amazing. Old deck demolished and beautiful new composite in its place in less than 2 days. Tiffany, the office manager is prompt in responding to all emails with courteous knowledgeable answers. They make you feel like you are their only customer. Look forward to working with them for my basement remodel. I 100% recommend this company.

I had a beautiful deck built almost 2 years ago. I called yesterday about a few items that have come apart such as the pvc outside corners on the rim/ band board etc. The company was very responsive and ready and eager to help. Because of this, they have made a customer for life! Not only will you get an amazing product, but it appears you get a lifetime of amazing customer service!! 100 out of 5 stars!

We needed a fence as fast as possible for 5 rescue dogs that we took on. Albaugh and Sons was able to provide a great quote and a speedy installation. My wife and I love the new fence. It has literally improved our day to day lives by being able to let the dogs run free in the back. The materials were perfect and high quality. I would definitely recommend them to friends and family.

I hired Albaugh and Sons to tear out our old deck and replace it with a new composite deck/ screened porch. The front office was a pleasure to deal with and kept my wife and I informed on everything. The crew did an amazing job every step of the way. I was especially impressed with their finish work. The attention to detail was impressive! What I also liked Albaugh and Sons is they had a project manager (Danny) who would occasionally pop over and answer questions and would also keep me updated on progress. I would highly recommend hiring Albaugh and Sons for any of your fence/ deck / home improvement needs.

We are very pleased with the work done by Albaugh and sons. We had them replace our side porch and they did excellent work and built it to our request. Also had them install a three tier rail fence around our property. It is excellent and looks great. We thank Danny and his deck crew and George and his fence crew for their excellent work. I recommend them for any projects you need done. Thank you very much!!
