Old Breaker panel to New Breaker panel change

An electrical panel upgrade or “panel change” is usually required to alleviate a problem with the existing panel. Sometimes a breaker might overheat to the point that the buss bar in a panel gets burned. 

The conductors between the meter and panel may become loose and burn out the main lugs. Other common reasons to change out an existing panel are due to obsolescence and outdated technology. Split-buss panels, lower end builder-grade panels, panels contaminated by water, paint and corrosive environments are often candidates for replacement. Panels long ago manufactured by FPE have many issues and are considered a hazard by many in the industry.

Electrical panels are the heart of your electrical system. When your electrical panel goes out almost everything shuts down or worse yet a fire.

Electrical panels typically last 20-25 years. Sure signs of a failure in your electrical panel are flickering lights and excess heat at the circuit breakers. If you see any of those signs call us immediately.

Whole House Surge Protector Installations

A power surge can follow through any wire into a home and threaten computers, televisions, smart appliances, home automation, and other equipment. Many homeowners have a false assumption that surge protection is simply a matter of plugging their devices into a low-cost, multi-outlet surge suppressor.

Do not be fooled…

If you want to protect devices plugged into outlets anywhere in the home, install a whole-house surge protection system. This protection must be hard-wired into the main electrical panel by a licensed electrician. Use smaller whole house surge protection for delicate circuitry, telephone, and cable lines. Use the multi-outlet power strip surge protection as your backup to absorb any excess power that seeps through the primary protection.

Dan was amazing! He installed new and replaced older pot lights. The area had its challenges but he did it all seamlessly with minimal holes to run the lines. Place was left as spotless as when he arrived. Would highly recommend Dan!Luke FamilyMarch 7, 2024

We are definitely satisfied with the service and will use the company again. Thanks, Dan, for a wonderful job.Cecille StraughanFebruary 2, 2024

This is the first time that we used service from GCCElectric. From scheduling appointment to finishing the job, everything went smoothly. Dan lived up to his excellent reputation as reviewed by previous clients. He came on time and in no time figured out the problems, thus reflecting his experience in the trade. He explained the problems clearly. His workmanship can be described as meticulous, efficient and clean. He is also amiable, courteous, honest but not pushy. A trustworthy electrician such as Dan is hard to come by. Surely, we will contact him again when future electrical problems arise.Hing Wo TsuiAugust 30, 2023

GCC Electric is a fantastic company that does superb work. We had Dan upgrade our old 1967 fuse panel to a 200 Amp service. From the beginning to the end, Dan provided quick, friendly and professional service at a fair price. High quality material was used to complete the high quality service we received. Lights out at 9:15 am and all power restored by 2:30 pm. Impressive. Not only did we get a great job, you can't find a speck of debris left behind. Dan removed all the garbage, old wires, boxes and wood from the previous unit and took it away with him. I could go on and on about how satisfied we are with this company and only wish more businesses operated like GCC What you need to know is this: High quality work Professional Service Fair pricing Honest and trustworthy Piece of mind Hire him, you won't be disappointed.

Replacement of fan light with new remote oneLifeis ShortJanuary 14, 2023
Hired Dan to install potlights throughout my first floor, install smart switches and add two outlets, one a 20 amp, in my basement. I will be bringing him back in to install potlights throughout my upstairs common areas. Good, clean work done efficiently, he is an overall good guy. Highly recommended.Geoff BaxterDecember 14, 2022
We had Dan install new under-cabinet lighting in our kitchen, add a surge protector to our electrical panel, replace a ceiling fan, replace a dimmer switch, and replace a remote control transmitter in another ceiling fan. He was so professional. His work was excellent and his prices were reasonable. We would recommend him without hesitation and will certainly call on him again for any future electrical needs. Thanks so much Dan!Penny HillierNovember 12, 2022
Dan Dikas installed two exterior lights and a timer for me. Each project was complicated by previous wiring jobs. Dan was thorough, patient and professional. He came out to see the job before quoting, unlike another company that couldn’t be bothered. Dan explained each installation and demonstrated how to set the timer and motion detector. The price was very fair. I would use GCC again without hesitation and recommend them highly.Yolanda WillettOctober 3, 2022
Attention Halton. Look no further for your home electrician. Dan is the man. He is a perfectionist at what he does. He came back on his own time because he thought the conduit he laid was not straight enough for him. Plus he is very responsive and his prices are very reasonable. What more could you ask for. He is the BEST.Mark FSeptember 15, 2022
I have dealt with many contractors and trades. Dan is great and exactly what you want from initial consult, quote throught to work completion: Professional, Honest, On-time, accomidating, friendly and courteous.

We had Dan from GCC Electric install a new bathroom fan, and replace one other. He is honest, thorough, and takes pride in his work. He made some great recommendations, and didn't make us feel as though he was trying to "sell" us anything we didn't necessarily need. I will absolutely use GCC Electric again in the future if we have a need!Amy GeerJune 22, 2022

Dan installed some exterior soffit lighting for us, added several GFCI outlets, ran outdoor conduit for Christmas lighting and installed a new Google Nest doorbell and security camera.

We recently bought exterior lights for our driveway and main door, and we also purchased a Ring floodlight security camera for our driveway. We did some research to find the right vendor, and we selected Dan from GCCElectric. From the moment we contacted him, he was very responsive; we exchanged several emails, and I send him pictures of the driveway, and he was able to provide a very detailed quote. The project was executed smoothly, on time, and he exceeded our expectations. Very professional and someone to strongly recommend. Thanks Dan!Ray HopkinsJanuary 13, 2021
