Onion Creek Panel Upgrades

Safe, Reliable Electrical Upgrades Near Onion Creek

Onion Creek’s rolling hills and lush greenbelt make it a sought-after area for South Austin homeowners—and a hotspot for older ranch-style homes and new construction alike. But aging electrical panels in these properties can struggle to keep pace with today’s power demands—whether it’s high-efficiency air conditioning battling Texas heat, kitchen remodels with modern appliances, or EV chargers for eco-friendly commutes. At Shipley Electric, LLC, our certified electricians bring over 25 years of local expertise to every panel upgrade. We combine deep community knowledge with top-quality materials and code-compliant workmanship to keep your home safe, efficient, and future-ready.

Our End-to-End Panel Upgrade Process

1. Customized Load Assessment
   We begin with an on-site inspection of your current panel, wiring, and service capacity. By mapping your existing load—including HVAC units, kitchen appliances, home offices, or electric vehicle chargers—we can determine whether you need a simple breaker swap, a standard 100 A to 200 A panel upgrade, or a more extensive rewiring solution.

2. Clear Estimate & Permit Handling
   Safety and compliance are paramount. Once we’ve designed your ideal electrical panel solution, we provide a transparent, no-surprise quote. Shipley Electric, LLC also manages all permitting and scheduling with the City of Austin and Travis County inspectors, ensuring your upgrade meets the latest National Electrical Code.

3. Professional Installation
   Using only UL-listed breakers, high-grade copper wiring, and industry-leading surge protection devices, our team replaces or installs your new service panel with precision. We reinforce grounding systems, label each circuit for easy future maintenance, and tidy all wiring to maintain the integrity and appearance of your electrical closet.

4. Final Inspection & Owner Walkthrough
   After inspection approval, we conduct a thorough safety check and guide you through your upgraded panel’s features. You’ll learn how to reset breakers safely, understand surge protection indicators, and receive tips on maintaining your system for long-term reliability.

Whether you need a straightforward panel swap or a full electrical overhaul for a home addition, Shipley Electric, LLC delivers minimal disruption, courteous service, and meticulous attention to detail.
