“Had to upgrade my electrical panel and I figured it would be a headache. But Garrett showed up on time and handled everything. The team was respectful of my home, cleaned up afterward, and finished earlier than expected. The new panel looks great and I feel much safer running ...”

“We had Garrett come out to install new lighting in our kitchen and fix a few switches that didn’t work. He was super knowledgeable and clearly takes pride in his work. He even noticed a potential fire hazard on another circuit and fixed it on the spot. Prices were fair and the...”

Permits

Permits and inspections

Not every job requires a permit. When the local AHJ requires one, we pull it, schedule the inspection, and stay with the job until it passes. No paperwork on you.

Warranty

What's covered

Lifetime warranty on the panel itself; 10-year on breakers. Parts and labor. Stays with the home and transfers to the next owner.

05 - WHO TO HIRE

Why hiring a licensed electrician matters.

For electrical panels and circuit breakers, here's the honest comparison. We'd tell you the same thing if we weren't trying to win the job.

Keil Electric

A licensed electrician

Licensed electrician walks every job. Veteran-owned, family-run.

Permits pulled and inspections coordinated when required by the AHJ

5/10-year + lifetime warranty in writing. Parts and labor. Transfers with the home.

Fully insured + workers' comp on every crew

The price you sign is the price you pay

A handyman

Unlicensed for electrical

No state electrical license. Can do simple swaps but not panel work, rewires, or service upgrades.

No permits. Work won't pass inspection if the city audits it later.

No structured warranty. "Call me if something breaks" isn't enforceable.

If something they did causes a fire, your homeowner's insurance can deny the claim.

Cash discount may show up on the invoice.

DIY

Doing it yourself

Cheap, but only if everything goes right. Most electrical work involves load calc, code, and permitting.

A failed inspection means redoing the work. Selling the home later, the buyer's inspector flags it.

No warranty if something fails. Replacement is on you.

Live wiring is a real safety hazard. Most fatal home electrical accidents are DIY.

If you know what you're doing, fine. If you don't, call us first.

What we see for electrical panels and circuit breakers in Austin

The city of Austin spans housing built across nearly a century, from pre-1950 bungalows in Hyde Park and Travis Heights to mid-century ranch in Tarrytown and Allandale to post-2000 condos and multi-family along South Congress and East Austin. electrical panels and circuit breakers jobs in Austin city proper often involve aluminum branch wiring (1965-1973 vintage) in older neighborhoods, panel upgrades on properties with original 60A or 100A service, and code corrections during renovations.

How electrical panels and circuit breakers typically runs in Austin

Panel and breaker work across our service area covers the full range, repair on a single bad breaker, replacement of a recalled panel (FPE Stab-Lok, Zinsco, Challenger), service upgrades from 100A or 200A based on actual load, AFCI and GFCI breaker installs to current code, and main breaker replacement when the original fails. Each job starts with a real load calc or a real diagnostic, runs with manufacturer-spec parts matched to the panel listing, and closes with a written warranty on the install.

Permits and code in Texas

Austin metro cities pull permits through their own AHJs (the city of Austin uses Austin Energy and the city development services; outlying cities run through the county). The state adopts the National Electrical Code with Texas amendments. We pull the permit when the scope requires it, schedule any inspection, and close out the work in your file. Austin-specific permit notes go on the quote so you know what is required before any work begins.

Common questions for Electrical Panels and Circuit Breakers in Austin

Does Keil Electric upgrade electrical panels in Austin?

Yes. Whole-panel upgrade, service-entrance upgrades from 100A to 200A, and sub-panel additions in Austin are all handled by our Austin team. A licensed electrician walks every quote in person.

What does a panel upgrade cost in Austin?

Panel upgrades typically range based on service size, panel brand, length of the service-entrance run, and any utility coordination needed. We do a real load calculation and write the price before any work starts. The quote you sign is the bill you pay.

Do you replace Federal Pacific or Zinsco panels?

Yes. We replace known-recall panels (Federal Pacific Stab-Lok, Zinsco, Challenger) as whole-panel jobs. Both brands have documented failure modes and parts-availability issues, so swapping individual breakers does not solve the underlying risk.

How long does a panel upgrade take?

Most residential 200A service upgrades are a one-day install with the home down for several hours during the meter pull. Larger jobs or jobs with a long service-entrance run can take two days. We coordinate the utility schedule ahead of time.

Do you pull the permit?

Yes, on every panel job that needs one. We file the permit with the Austin building department (or local AHJ), schedule the rough and final inspections, and stay with the job through pass.

Is there a warranty?

Yes. Tiered written warranty: 5-year on breaker repair, 10-year on full panel installs, lifetime on the panelbox when paired with surge protection. Parts and labor, stays with the home.
