Service Panel Upgrade in Charlotte

If your Charlotte home was built before 1985 there's a good chance you have a Federal Pacific or Zinsco panel — both have been linked to fire risk and most insurance carriers now require replacement. We replace these all the time. 200-amp upgrade from 100-amp service is also our most common Pre-EV-charging install.

About our service panel upgrade work

★★★★★

"Federal Pacific panel — State Farm gave us 30 days to replace or non-renew. Liberty was on it within 48 hours, replaced the panel and bonded the system properly. Insurance was happy. Job was clean."

★★★★★

"Bought a 1932 craftsman in Wesley Heights. Had a pre-purchase inspection by Liberty before closing — they found extensive knob-and-tube that the seller had to remediate as part of the sale. Saved us from a $14k surprise."

★★★★★

"EV charger install for our Model Y. Jamal came out, recommended a 60A install instead of the 50A we asked for (it costs $100 more but charges 20% faster). Honest, knowledgeable, no upsell pressure."

FAQ

Common questions about service panel upgrade

Do you charge for the inspection?

Never. Inspections are always free — for homeowners, real-estate buyers, and after any electrical event. You get a 15+ point written report. No obligation.

Do you pull permits?

Yes, on every job that requires one. Skipping permits voids your homeowner's insurance and can prevent you from selling the house. We do it right — even when it costs us a day.

How fast can you actually get here?

Central Charlotte: 60 minutes during business hours. Outer suburbs: 75-90 minutes. After-hours emergencies dispatch within 90 minutes typically. We text live ETA.

Will you try to upsell me?

No. We make money on real work, not on parts. If your problem is a $185 fix, you get a $185 fix. We don't push panel upgrades on people who don't need them.

What warranty do you offer?

12 months workmanship on all repairs. Lifetime on all new fixture installs (Liberty parts + labor). All manufacturer warranties pass through to you.
