Projects that usually need new wiring
- A kitchen remodel with new appliances, an island or under cabinet lighting
- A garage, shop or accessory dwelling that needs its own circuits
- A home office, media room or server closet with more equipment than the old outlets can handle
- Room additions and finished basements or attics
- A dedicated circuit for a freezer, microwave, window AC unit or workshop tool
If you are running extension cords to reach outlets, or a breaker trips whenever two appliances run together, that is usually a sign the existing circuits were never sized for how the space is used now.
What a wiring installation covers
The electrician starts by working out what will be powered and where. From there the job typically includes:
- Planning circuit layout and breaker space in your panel
- Running new cable through walls, ceilings, crawl spaces or conduit
- Installing boxes, outlets, switches and fixture connections
- Labeling the new circuits at the panel
- Arranging the permit and inspection when the work requires one
If your panel is already full, the electrician will tell you before work starts whether a subpanel or a panel upgrade is the better route.
From your call to finished wiring
- You call 844-335-0814 and describe the project and your location.
- Our service desk connects you with an independent electrician who does wiring installation.
- The electrician visits or talks through the plan, then gives you a written estimate.
- Rough wiring goes in before drywall or insulation, followed by an inspection when required.
- Devices and fixtures are connected, circuits are tested and the panel is labeled.
Permits for new circuits in Sacramento County
Sacramento County lists electrical panel and circuit work among the projects that need a building permit, so plan for one on most new wiring jobs. Sacramento County's permit FAQ explains the process for unincorporated areas, while addresses inside a city use that city's building department.
Ask the electrician you are connected with to confirm who pulls the permit and when the rough inspection will happen, so your drywall schedule does not get ahead of it.
Questions about Electrical Wiring Installation
Can new wiring be added without opening every wall?
Often, yes. Electricians can fish cable through existing walls from the attic or crawl space and make small access holes, though some layouts still need larger openings.
Do I need a separate circuit for a new appliance?
Many larger appliances and tools are best on their own circuit. The electrician will check the appliance requirements and your panel before recommending one.
