Services for Royal Oak Homes
What Royal Oak homeowners call us for most
Royal Oak is one of the areas where we do the most panel upgrades and new circuits. Many of its 1920s through 1950s homes were wired for far less than a modern kitchen, home office or EV, so a repair and a request for more power often show up together. We look at the service, the panel and the circuit involved, then lay out the options in plain terms.

Questions before you book
Common questions
Straight answers about your next electrical project.
What does it cost to have an electrician come out?
Repair visits have a $99 dispatch fee, and it's waived if you move forward with the repair. Project estimates for panel upgrades, EV chargers, standby generators, hot tubs and remodels are free. You get an exact price before any work starts.
Can you come today?
We book the earliest open slot and keep a rapid-repair list for cancellations. For true emergencies (a burning smell, sparks, no power, or water in the panel) we offer an emergency visit for $329.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes, fully licensed and insured. The Neighborhood Electrician has been owned and run by a Michigan Master Electrician since 1997. Our electricians are background-checked, and we never subcontract.
Can you give me a price over the phone?
Here are typical ranges: panel replacement $3,500–6,500, EV charger installation $1,300–2,100, generator interlock $1,100–1,700, and whole-house surge protection $650–1,300. Smaller repairs are priced on site, flat and upfront, because the cause decides the fix.
