Electrical Work Built for Real Remodels

Home remodel electrical work is what Priceless Electric has been doing across the Augusta metro area for over 20 years. Whether you're opening up a kitchen, finishing a basement, or adding a master suite, the wiring behind those new walls determines whether the finished product is safe, code-compliant, and built to carry modern electrical loads. John Price handles this work personally, coordinating with your general contractor or leading the project outright, so there's no dropped ball between trades. If the electrical side of your remodel needs to be done correctly the first time, (706) 627-6021 is the number to call.

What drives the cost and complexity of remodel electrical work is scope, not guesswork. A bathroom addition that needs two new circuits and GFCI protection is a very different job from a full kitchen gut-and-rebuild that requires a panel upgrade, dedicated appliance circuits, and recessed lighting throughout. The condition of your existing wiring matters too. Older homes in the Augusta area sometimes still carry wiring that doesn't meet current National Electrical Code standards, which means remodel work can surface issues that need to be addressed before new work can go in on top of them. We walk through that scope honestly before the project starts. Every job is different, contact Priceless Electric for an accurate estimate.

What We Cover

Electrical Scope in a Home Remodel

Most remodels touch more electrical than the homeowner initially expects.

01

New Circuits and Wiring Runs

Adding a room or expanding a space means running new wire from the panel. We size the circuits correctly for the loads they'll carry, not just for what code requires at minimum.

02

Panel Upgrades

Modern kitchens, home offices, and multi-system additions can push an older 100-amp panel past its limits. We perform load calculations to determine whether your current service needs to be upgraded before new circuits go in.

03

Outlet and Switch Relocation

Walls move. Furniture plans change. We relocate existing outlets and switches so your finished room functions the way you actually intend to use it, with everything positioned where it belongs.

04

GFCI and AFCI Protection

Kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and outdoor spaces all require GFCI protection under current code. Bedrooms require AFCI protection. We install and verify both so your remodel passes inspection cleanly.

05

Lighting Rough-In and Installation

From recessed can placement to ceiling fan boxes and under-cabinet lighting, we handle the rough-in during framing and the finish work once drywall is complete. No second electrician needed.

06

Dedicated Appliance Circuits

Ranges, dishwashers, refrigerators, microwaves, and EV chargers each need their own dedicated circuit. We size and install them to manufacturer specs so your appliances perform as intended from day one.

Our Process

How We Work With Your Remodel Timeline

Electrical work on a remodel happens in phases, and we coordinate each one so the rest of your project doesn't stall waiting on us.

  1. 01

    Pre-Construction Planning

    Before a wall comes down or a permit gets pulled, we review the project scope with you or your general contractor. We identify what the existing electrical can support and what it can't, and we flag any code issues in the current wiring that'll need to be resolved.

  2. 02

    Rough-In During Framing

    Once framing is complete and before drywall goes up, we run all new wire, set boxes, install panel circuits, and rough in every fixture location. This is the phase where getting it right matters most, changes after drywall are expensive.

  3. 03

    Finish Work and Final Inspection

    After drywall and paint, we return to install devices, fixtures, and covers, complete the panel connections, and walk the job for a final inspection. We don't hand off the finish work to someone else.

Good Work vs. Shortcuts

What Separates a Sound Electrical Remodel

panel upgrades work, professional service in Grovetown, GA
Honestly, a lot of remodel electrical work gets done fast and light. Circuits get shared that shouldn't be. Wire gets fished through walls without proper support. Box fill calculations get skipped. None of it fails inspection the day of, some of it fails five years later when a breaker starts tripping under normal load or a connection works loose inside a wall. What we do differently comes down to planning before the rough-in and checking our own work before the drywall closes everything in. Every circuit we install gets labeled at the panel. Every junction connection is made in an accessible box, never buried in a wall. Every outlet we install is tested for proper ground and polarity before we leave the job. We also won't sign off on new work built on top of wiring that creates a hazard. If we open a wall and find aluminum branch wiring or ungrounded knob-and-tube that the new work would connect to, we tell you what's there and what it takes to address it. That conversation isn't always easy, but it's the one a licensed electrician is obligated to have.

Remodel Electrical Work: What to Know

  1. 01

    Permits Matter More Than You Think

    Electrical work on a remodel requires a permit in Columbia County and throughout the Augusta metro. Unpermitted electrical work can void your homeowner's insurance and create real problems when you sell. We pull the permits and schedule the inspections so you don't have to.

  2. 02

    Older Homes Change the Equation

    Homes built before the 1980s often have 60-amp or 100-amp service and wiring that doesn't support modern loads. A remodel is frequently the right time to address those underlying issues rather than work around them. We carry out whole-home surge protection alongside panel work when it makes sense.

  3. 03

    Coordination Prevents Delays

    The most expensive remodel delays we see come from trades not talking to each other. We communicate directly with your GC, plumber, and HVAC contractor when scheduling requires it, so rough-in inspections happen on time and nobody's waiting on someone else to move forward.

Remodel Electrical: Common Questions

Do I need a permit for electrical work during a home remodel?
Yes. In Columbia County and across the Augusta metro, any electrical work beyond simple device replacement requires a permit and inspection. This includes adding circuits, moving the panel, installing new outlets, and running wire for new fixtures. We handle permitting as part of the project scope, so you're not navigating that process alone. Unpermitted work can complicate a home sale and, in some cases, void your homeowner's policy.
How do I know if my current electrical panel can handle a remodel addition?
We perform load calculations before any new circuit work begins. A load calculation compares your panel's rated capacity to the total demand of existing and planned circuits, including peak loads from HVAC systems, appliances, and any high-draw additions like EV chargers or mini-splits. If your panel is undersized for the remodel scope, we'll tell you upfront and quote the upgrade alongside the project rather than letting you find out mid-inspection.
Can you coordinate with my general contractor on the remodel electrical schedule?
That's standard practice for us. Rough-in timing, inspection scheduling, and finish-work sequencing all depend on what the other trades are doing. We communicate directly with your GC so electrical rough-in happens after framing and before drywall, and finish work follows paint without holding up your punch-list. If you don't have a GC and are managing the project yourself, we walk you through the sequencing so nothing gets out of order.
What happens if the electrician finds old or hazardous wiring when opening up walls?
We tell you what we found and what it means before we touch anything. Aluminum branch wiring, ungrounded two-prong circuits, and deteriorated insulation are all conditions we encounter in older Augusta-area homes during remodels. A licensed electrician can't legally connect new code-compliant work to wiring that creates a hazard. We'll document what's there, explain your options, and give you a clear scope for addressing it so the rest of the remodel can proceed safely.
How long does the electrical rough-in take on a typical kitchen or bathroom remodel?
A standard kitchen rough-in with dedicated appliance circuits, recessed lighting, and GFCI outlet placement typically runs one to two days, depending on the panel location and how many new circuits are required. Bathroom rough-in is generally shorter. More complex projects involving panel work or whole-home circuit additions take longer. We give you a timeline estimate before the project starts, not after we've already opened the walls.
Do you install lighting as part of remodel electrical work, or is that a separate contractor?
We handle both the rough-in and the finish installation. That includes recessed lighting layouts, ceiling fan boxes, under-cabinet lighting rough-in, and fixture installation after drywall and paint are complete. You don't need a separate lighting contractor. For custom or decorative fixture selections, we install what you've sourced and can advise on box sizing and weight ratings before you purchase.
