Shady Hollow Panel Upgrades

Localized, Engaging Introduction

Shady Hollow’s blend of modern townhomes and mature single-family houses offers residents the best of suburban comfort just minutes from downtown Austin. Yet, many of these homes still operate on decades-old electrical panels that weren’t built to handle today’s power-hungry appliances—central air units working overtime in the Texas heat, Level 2 EV chargers, home theaters, and home office setups. When your breakers trip repeatedly or lights flicker during peak usage, it’s not just an inconvenience—it’s a warning sign. Shipley Electric, LLC specializes in Shady Hollow panel upgrades designed to boost capacity, ensure code compliance, and keep your home running safely and efficiently, season after season.

Detailed Overview of Services

At Shipley Electric, LLC, we follow a meticulous, customer-focused process to deliver panel upgrades that stand the test of time:

  1. Thorough Consultation & Load Analysis

    • We begin with an in-home evaluation, discussing your current needs and future plans—whether you dream of installing a whole-house generator, upgrading to a spa circuit, or wiring an EV charger.

    • Our licensed electricians perform accurate load calculations, factoring in existing appliances and upcoming additions to recommend the right panel size (often 200 amp or 400 amp).

  2. Permitting & Austin Code Compliance

    • Shady Hollow falls under City of Austin jurisdiction and Travis County regulations. We handle all permit applications, plan submissions, and inspection scheduling so you don’t have to.

    • Every upgrade meets—or exceeds—the latest National Electrical Code (NEC) requirements and any local amendments, ensuring a smooth final inspection and full homeowner peace of mind.

  3. Premium Materials & Professional Installation

    • We install high-quality breakers, copper bus bars, and whole-home surge protection systems to safeguard your investment and sensitive electronics.

    • All wiring is neatly organized, color-coded, and labeled. We secure connections with industry-standard torque settings for maximum reliability and durability.

  4. Comprehensive Testing & Handoff

    • After installation, we perform multi-point testing: checking voltage stability under load, verifying proper grounding, and simulating worst-case scenarios.

    • We then walk you through your new panel’s layout, explaining safety features and showing you how to operate any added devices—like GFCI breakers or surge protectors—so you feel confident in your home’s electrical health.

With over 25 years serving Austin-area homeowners, Shipley Electric, LLC combines deep technical expertise with a customer-first mindset—treating each Shady Hollow home as if it were our own.
