Your local choice for kitchen electrical upgrades in Clarkston, MI

Metro Detroit homes work their electrical systems hard, and more so every year as EV chargers, central air and home offices are added. In Clarkston and across Oakland County, we check the capacity of the panel and service before we begin kitchen electrical upgrades, so that nothing new is hung on a system that is already full.

What a modern kitchen needs electrically

A current-code kitchen typically has seven or more circuits. Countertops alone need two 20 amp circuits, and each fixed appliance gets its own. Switching from a gas range to induction means a new 240 volt circuit, often 40 or 50 amps. Many Clarkston kitchens built before the 1980s run on two or three circuits total, which is why upgrades so often begin at the panel.
