Answers to Common Electrical Questions
You ask, we answer
Got questions about your wiring, a panel or a repair? Here’s a plain rundown of what East Texas homeowners ask us most.
How much does it cost to upgrade an electrical panel in Jacksonville?
Every panel upgrade in Jacksonville is priced after we look at your service, because the amperage, the age of the home, and the condition of the existing wiring all change the work. BS Electric No Bull gives a free, no-obligation estimate before any work starts, so you know the number up front. Call 903-216-1406 for your free estimate.
How do I know if my electrical panel needs to be replaced?
In older Jacksonville homes, the common warning signs are breakers that trip often, a warm or buzzing panel, scorch marks, and a fuse box or 60-amp service that can’t keep up with modern appliances. About 42% of Jacksonville homes were built before 1970, so mid-century 60 to 100-amp panels are still common here. If you see any of those signs, have it looked at before it becomes a hazard.
Do I need to upgrade my panel to install an EV charger?
Sometimes. A Level 2 EV charger in Jacksonville pulls a heavy load, and an older 100-amp panel may not have room for a new 240-volt circuit without a load calculation first. We check your panel capacity before installing, so the charger runs safely. If an upgrade is needed, we include it in your free estimate.
Is a whole-home generator worth it in East Texas?
For many East Texas homeowners, yes, because the area sees frequent storm outages. The January 2026 ice storm left more than 80,000 East Texas homes without power, and June 2024 storms caused widespread outages too. A standby generator with an automatic transfer switch keeps your Jacksonville home running through those events, and we size it to your home before giving you a free estimate.
Do I need a permit to install a generator or EV charger in Jacksonville?
Most generator and EV charger installs in Jacksonville need a permit and inspection to meet Texas code. We pull the permits and handle the inspection, so the work is documented and done right. As a licensed Master Electrician, Kevin makes sure every install is code-correct. Call us and we’ll walk you through what your job needs.
What should I ask when hiring an electrician in Jacksonville?
Ask whether the electrician is a licensed Master Electrician, whether the company is insured, and whether they pull permits for panel and service work in Jacksonville. Ask about local experience and reviews too. BS Electric No Bull is a licensed and insured Texas electrical contractor with 50 five-star reviews and over two decades in the trade. Straight answers and no upsells are the whole point of the name.
Who installs whole-house generators in Jacksonville?
A licensed electrician installs whole-house standby generators in Jacksonville, including the transfer switch, the pad, and the wiring back to your panel. We size, install, and service standby generators across East Texas after storm seasons like the January 2026 ice storm. We also repair units that won’t start when the power drops. Call 903-216-1406 for a free estimate.
Is BS Electric No Bull licensed and insured in Texas?
Yes. BS Electric No Bull is a licensed and insured Texas electrical contractor, and owner Kevin Stringham holds a Master Electrician license, the highest individual electrical license in Texas. Every job in Jacksonville has a Master Electrician behind it. That means code-correct work you can count on.
Do you guarantee your electrical work in Jacksonville?
Yes. Every job carries a satisfaction guarantee, so the work is done right and you’re happy before we call it finished. We’re a licensed and insured Texas electrical contractor with a Master Electrician on every job, and that standard holds on panel upgrades, repairs, and installs across Jacksonville. Call 903-216-1406 for a free estimate.
How quickly can I get an electrician in Jacksonville?
BS Electric No Bull offers same-day response for most electrical calls in Jacksonville and answers the phone 24/7 for emergencies. If you have a dead panel, a sparking outlet, or lost power, we move fast. Call 903-216-1406 and we’ll tell you when we can be there.
Did you know?
A 1960s copper shortage pushed builders to wire homes with aluminum instead, and federal researchers later found those pre-1972 houses were 55 times likelier to reach fire-hazard conditions at the connections. You’d never spot it from the driveway.
