Reasons You May Need a New Electrical Panel
Electrical panels connect your electrical system to the main power source, a powerful electric line that feeds into your home’s foundation. If there are any issues with the electrical panel, it can cause serious electrical problems and even safety risks for your home and your family. Here are a few ways to tell that your electrical panel may need to be replaced:
-
Age: Your electrical panel has a lifespan; if it is outdated or over 20 years old, consider replacing it.
-
Frequent Circuit Breaker Trips: If your system trips multiple times in a short period of time, this could indicate an issue with the wiring or that your electrical panel is overloaded.
-
Flickering Lights: If the lights in your home are flickering, this could indicate that you have an issue with your electrical panel.
-
Buzzing or Humming Noises: Electrical panels can make strange noises when they are not functioning properly. If you hear buzzing or humming coming from your panel, it is important to contact a licensed electrician right away to investigate the issue.
Additionally, if you’re adding on to your home or increasing your energy usage in a significant way, you may need to upgrade your electrical panel in order to accommodate your home’s new energy needs. Rest assured, our professional, trained, and licensed electricians can handle any issues with your electrical panel — from replacing outdated panels and installing new breakers to troubleshooting and repairing existing panels.

About Beacon Home Services
Darrell Perry
Very professional and quality service, what else can you ask for.
Ed Bennett
We have trusted Beacon Home Services with previous electrical work. Recently we contacted BHS to replace/upgrade our home electrical distribution panel with surge protector and included a generator interlock kit. This was a major project and BHS once again exceeded expectations. We were fortunate to have Nelson as our assigned electrician on our first service call with BHS, and we have requested him on our subsequent service calls including this project. Nelson is outstanding. Extremely qualified and professional, with exceptional attention to detail. All aspects of the project were well managed by BHS: Scheduling, obtaining necessary permits, coordinating with the utility company, to the final inspection. BHS handled it all. We also took advantage of BHS financing. Incredibly simple process and immediate approval. This was a major electrical project and I know it was done correctly and my family and home are safer. We are completely satisfied with all aspects of BHS. From the initial phone call to request service, to the initial visit to assess the job and provide the written estimate, to all the follow-up communications from Rebecca, prior to the arrival of the electrician. When the job was complete, the General Manager, Katie, also followed-up with us to ensure nothing was overlooked. I recommend BHS for electrical work.

Dustin installed 12 light fixtures for us today. He was friendly, professional, diligent, and comprehensive in his work. He left the area clean.
Matt Smothers
Excellent experience with them. I needed them to check my water pressure and replace some on/off valves. Several plastic in/out ones failed at the same time. They were able to come out the next day - a great help when you have a family and don’t have time to attempt a fix yourself by waiting until the weekend and taking all day…to then still maybe need professional help.
They came when they said they would, diagnosed the problem, got (better) replacement parts, and had all three replaced in a few hours. One of the lines was a little noisier than the old, and he even smoothed out the bend a bit to make a wider turn radius so it didn’t kink the line. That fixed the extra noise.
I will keep them in mind if I need any more plumbing work.

Gabriel was very helpful, fixed everything very quickly and let us know what to do if we wanted to do any extra work on our own afterwards
Deborah Hixson
I needed an electrical outlet installed in my attic after a fan for radon was installed. Beacon responded quickly and Bryce did an excellent job. I won’t hesitate to call them again.
Gordon John Mengel
Gabriel came to our home to provide estimates for a couple new electrical installations. After discussing what we wanted and making his assessment of possibilities, he provided us with his recommendations and an estimate of cost. With our agreement, he quickly went to work, completing both installations to our satisfaction and in very reasonable time. We appreciate having Gabriel assist us once again. Our thanks.

Robert Nichols showed up promptly and on time and immediately started accessing the plumbing issues I was experiencing. He took his time and explained everything I needed to know about a whole house water filtration system, afterwards he addressed several other plumbing issues that I brought up and actually told me how to fix one of the issues with anoutdoor water lines myself, he was extremely professional and helpful, thank you Robert for being super friendly and easy to talk to
Peggy Van Cleave
Alex was great! He fixed our toilet no problem!
Dereik Simpson
The tech Mr Moreno was great. Explained everything in detail and did an amazing job. Looks like I found a new plumbing service. Thanks again
Terri Donohue
My electrician, Chris Merino , was on time, absolutely professional, explained everything very, very clearly, and was so nice about my questions. It's a pleasure to work with a company that is so responsive, and got everything done that I wanted. All in the same day too!
2/19/24: my second experience with Beacon Electric: Rebecca helped me make a last minute appointment, because I had a lamp flickering in my home. Craig came out, with his assistant or apprentice John. Just like the first time I had this business out, they showed up on time, were completely polite, fixed my issue and found another issue that I didn't even know about. I can't say enough about this group. It's nice to work with them!
October 6th 2026 : third time I've had Beacon Home Services out. Shawn was great, he replaced my outdoor motion detector light and fixed a socket in my home. Perfectly professional, friendly, and the work looks great! And I got notifications and phone calls at each stage to let me know when he was coming, when he was on his way, and that he was here. Can't say enough about this company!

We had Nelson Mota come out to install a customer provided outside wall light fixture. Installation went very smooth. We would call Beacon Home Service for any electrical problems going forward. Nelson was a pleasure to work with. 5 stars for him!
Nancy Parks
Nelson was outstanding. He has a great personality. We had a light fixture outside that needed to be replaced. He replaced it pretty fast with no issues. He made sure my husband and I were both satisfied with his work. Highly recommend.
Andy Sheston
Mary was timely and polite when helping with the logistics of the appointment. Nathan took time to understand the situation, then proposed some options, and completed the repairs from the option
Jeanne Chase
They are very kind and professional. I got an estimate for replacing several lights. 5 stars for customer service. However the estimate seems a bit high.
