Homes in Antelope are now decades old, and many are hitting the point where panels are tight, outlets are scarce, and wiring is ready for attention. At the same time, homeowners are adding EV chargers and modern appliances that push older panels to their limits.
We help Antelope homeowners upgrade with confidence. Panel upgrades, added circuits, GFCI protection, and clean lighting work, all permitted through Sacramento County and done to current code.
As Antelope homes mature, panel upgrades and added circuits are among our most common local projects.
Thirty-year-old panels
Nearly every house in Antelope went up between the late 80s and the late 90s, so the whole neighborhood is hitting the same milestone at once: breakers at the end of their service life, a panel with no open slots, and a kitchen that was never meant to run an air fryer, a microwave, and a coffee maker on two circuits. Most of these panels are fine to keep. What they need is a load calculation, a few dedicated circuits, and AFCI and GFCI protection where today's code calls for it.
When the panel really is done, a 200-amp replacement runs $2,500 to $10,000, takes a day, and goes through SMUD and Sacramento County.

EV chargers in the garage
Antelope garages are attached, the panel is usually right there on the wall, and that makes a Level 2 charger one of the cheapest installs we do: a dedicated 240-volt circuit, a hardwired unit or a NEMA 14-50 outlet, and a test under load. Most run $500 to $1,500, and the SMUD Charge@Home rebate has covered up to $600 of that.
