First we hired Daniel to come check out a problem with one of our light switches. He was so thorough and honest that we asked for a quote to upgrade a very old circuit panel. His price was very reasonable. He was always working one step ahead dealing with our energy company and getting the materials and permit. Daniel is a hard worker, knowledgeable and enthusiastic about his work! We’re glad that now we have an electrician we trust in case we have any other work to be done.

Expert Home Addition Wiring in Lakewood, CO
Home addition wiring is one of the more involved electrical projects a Lakewood homeowner can take on. Whether you are adding a bedroom, a sunroom, or a garage conversion, new square footage needs its own circuits, outlets, and lighting runs tied back to your main panel. Lakewood homes span a wide range of ages and layouts, and older panels often lack the capacity to handle added load without an upgrade. The City of Lakewood requires electrical work on residential additions to be performed by contractors registered with the city, and panel locations must be documented in project drawings. At Upstanding Electric LLC, we assess your existing panel capacity first. Then we plan circuit routes, pull the required wiring, install outlets and fixtures, and make sure every connection meets current code. We work cleanly through walls and ceilings to protect finished surfaces wherever possible. If your panel needs an upgrade to support the new space, we handle that too. Call us to schedule a walk-through of your Lakewood addition project.
