Electrical Panel Upgrade for Waianae homes and businesses

We handle electrical panel upgrade across Waianae and the wider Oahu area. 100 to 200 amp service upgrades, breaker box replacement and sub panels sized for what you actually run. You get a written scope and a fixed number before anyone starts work.

Newer Waianae construction has the opposite problem: the wiring is fine but the load has grown. Add an EV, a mini split and an induction range and a 100 amp service runs out of room fast. A load calculation tells you whether you need an upgrade or just a rearranged panel.

Oahu carries most of the state's load, and it shows in the wiring. We work on 1950s plantation cottages, high-rise condos with shared risers, and newer tract homes out toward the leeward side.

Call (888) 633-7804 or request a call back and we will book a window that works.

What Waianae customers say

★★★★★

Outlets added in the bedroom and a USB one by the bed. Small job, still got a flat quote and a tidy patch job.

They found aluminium branch wiring during an inspection before we bought. Saved us from a very expensive surprise.

Electrical Panel Upgrade in Waianae: frequently asked questions

How do I know my Waianae panel needs upgrading?
Full breaker slots, double-tapped breakers, a fuse box, frequent tripping, a warm cover, scorch marks, or a plan to add an EV charger, AC or a range. Any one of those is a reason to look.
How long does a panel upgrade take in Waianae?
Most residential upgrades are a one day job, with power off for part of it. Utility coordination and inspection can add scheduling time, and we handle that for you.
What size service should I get in Waianae?
200 amp is standard for most homes now, especially with an EV or a heat pump in the plan. We run a load calculation rather than guessing.
Can you replace just the breaker box in Waianae?
Sometimes, if the service and meter are in good condition. If the service entrance cable is undersized or corroded, replacing only the box leaves the real bottleneck in place.
Do I need a permit for a panel upgrade in Waianae?
Service work is permitted and inspected. We take care of the paperwork and the inspection appointment as part of the job.
Will my power be off all day in Waianae?
Not usually all day. We plan the outage window with you in advance so you can move anything temperature sensitive first.
What areas around Waianae do you serve?
We cover Waianae and the wider Oahu area, plus the rest of Hawaii. If you are just outside Waianae, call (888) 633-7804 and we will confirm coverage in one minute.
Do you work on older homes in Waianae?
Frequently. Older Waianae properties often have two prong outlets, cloth or knob and tube wiring, or a panel that ran out of room years ago. We prioritise what is unsafe first and give you a staged plan for the rest.
