Electrical Panel Upgrades in St. George, UT
An outdated or undersized electrical panel is one of the most common — and most dangerous — electrical problems in St. George homes. If your breakers trip frequently, you have a Federal Pacific or Zinsco panel, or you're adding high-draw appliances like an EV charger, solar system, or hot tub, a panel upgrade is the right move. Local Services Inc. provides licensed electrical panel upgrades throughout St. George, Washington City, Hurricane, Santa Clara, and Washington County. We pull permits, pass inspections, and leave your home safe and up to code.
What We Do
Services We Offer
100A to 200A Panel Upgrade
Most St. George homes built before 2000 have 100-amp service. Upgrading to 200 amps gives you the capacity for modern appliances, EV chargers, and home additions without tripping breakers.

Large homes, home additions, or properties with multiple high-draw systems (solar, EV charging, pool equipment) may need 400-amp service. We handle the full upgrade including utility coordination.

Federal Pacific Stab-Lok and Zinsco panels are known fire hazards. If your home has one of these panels, replacement is a safety priority. We replace them with modern, code-compliant panels.
Replace My Unsafe PanelBreaker Replacement & Panel Repair
A single failing breaker doesn't always require a full panel replacement. We diagnose whether you need a breaker swap, a panel repair, or a full upgrade — and give you an honest recommendation.
Diagnose My Breaker IssueSub-Panel Installation
Adding a garage, workshop, ADU, or outbuilding? A sub-panel brings power where you need it without overloading your main panel. We size and install sub-panels for any application.
Add a Sub-PanelPanel Upgrade for EV Charging
Level 2 EV chargers require a dedicated 240V circuit. If your panel doesn't have the capacity, we upgrade it and install the charger in one visit.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I need an electrical panel upgrade?
Signs you may need a panel upgrade include: breakers that trip frequently or won't reset, lights that flicker when appliances run, a panel that feels warm or makes buzzing sounds, a Federal Pacific or Zinsco panel (known fire hazards), or plans to add high-draw equipment like an EV charger, solar system, or hot tub.
How much does an electrical panel upgrade cost in St. George?
A 100A to 200A panel upgrade in St. George typically costs $1,500–$3,000 depending on the panel location, service entrance work required, and permit fees. A 200A to 400A upgrade costs more. We provide a written quote after the initial assessment — no surprises.
How long does a panel upgrade take?
Most residential panel upgrades are completed in a single day. Your home will be without power for approximately 4–6 hours during the actual panel swap. We coordinate with the utility company and schedule the inspection so the process is as smooth as possible.
Do I need a permit for an electrical panel upgrade in St. George?
Yes. An electrical panel upgrade requires a permit from Washington County and an inspection by a licensed electrical inspector. We handle the permit application and schedule the inspection as part of every panel upgrade job.
Can you upgrade my panel and install an EV charger at the same time?
Yes, and this is often the most cost-effective approach. If your panel needs an upgrade to support an EV charger, we can complete both in a single visit — one mobilization, one permit, one inspection.
