Upgrading an electrical panel to 200 amps is a custom project, and final cost is confirmed after an on‑site inspection. Most of the price comes from the overall service upgrade work, not just swapping the panel. If your panel is crowded, overheats, or you’re adding high‑demand appliances, a full 200‑amp upgrade is often the better long‑term fix; if the problem is a single bad breaker, a targeted repair may be enough. Many older homes also need meter‑base and grounding updates, which is where surprises usually appear. Our electricians routinely complete panel and service upgrades for homeowners around Wirtz and the Roanoke Valley. We provide a free, no‑obligation estimate after we assess your setup.
Key factors that change price:
- Service entrance size and wire length from meter to panel
- Condition/location of the existing panel or need to relocate
- Utility coordination and main disconnect requirements
- Required breaker types and any generator interlock or transfer switch
