Electrical Panel Upgrade FAQ for Tampa Homeowners

How often should Tampa homeowners get electrical panel upgrade?
Given Tampa's tropical climate with year-round heat and humidity, most homeowners benefit from electrical panel upgrade at least once a year. Year-round algae and mildew on stucco and driveways often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Tampa most need electrical panel upgrade?
Stucco and block construction and Tile roofs (clay and concrete) are the most common home types in Tampa and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
How do I know if I need a panel upgrade?
Signs include frequently tripping breakers, inability to add new circuits, a fuse panel, a Federal Pacific or Zinsco panel (known fire hazards), a 100-amp service, or plans for an EV charger or addition.
What size panel do I need?
200-amp service is standard for most modern homes. Homes with EV chargers, electric HVAC, large additions, or hot tubs may benefit from 400-amp service.
How long does a panel upgrade take?
Most panel upgrades are completed in 4–8 hours. Utility reconnection may require scheduling with the power company and can add 1–2 days.
Will my power be off during the upgrade?
Yes. The home is de-energized during the panel swap, typically for 4–6 hours. We schedule to minimize disruption and complete the work as quickly as possible.
