Electrical permits in Redmond
The City of Redmond issues and inspects electrical permits inside city limits through the Redmond ePermitting Service (REPS). Its residential fee sheet (effective February 1, 2026) lists a new or altered service at $192.03, a subpanel at $96.02 and a generator at $48.00; those are the city's permit fees, not our prices. Homes in unincorporated areas with a Redmond address, such as Redmond Ridge, Trilogy, Union Hill and Novelty Hill, get electrical permits from Washington L&I. We pull the required permits for our work.
Working with PSE
For a panel or service upgrade, PSE energizes the new service only after it passes electrical inspection, and only PSE sets or removes the meter; the meter base and mast belong to the homeowner (PSE Customer Construction Services, 1-888-321-7779). We coordinate the inspection and PSE's part of the job.
Older Redmond panels and wiring
Redmond mixes established neighborhoods with townhomes and new construction. Older homes can have panels with no spare spaces, aluminum branch wiring from the late 1960s and early 1970s, or kitchens and garages sharing an overloaded circuit. In newer homes, the calls are usually EV chargers, added circuits and smart panels. Either way, we check the load and the panel first and give you a written price.
Panels, EV chargers and generators
PSE offers up to $300 for a qualifying ENERGY STAR smart Level 2 charger, and income-qualified customers can get up to $600 plus up to $2,000 toward installation; apply within 60 days of installation (PSE EV charger rebate, read November 4, 2026). The federal 30C credit ended June 30, 2026. We currently offer $200 off an EV charger install and $200 off an electrical panel upgrade. Bigger projects have their own pages: panel upgrades, EV charger installation and standby generators.

A recent Redmond electrical job
In late October 2026, ahead of storm season, a Redmond homeowner (98052) wanted their gas furnace to keep running from a battery backup during outages. Our electrician installed a 20-amp single-circuit transfer switch, connected it to the furnace and supplied a 20-amp cord for the battery, so the furnace can switch to battery power without backfeeding the house wiring.

Redmond electrician FAQ
What does an electrician visit cost in Redmond?
A visit starts with our $179 electrical dispatch fee, and that includes a 30-minute diagnostic. Common jobs have set prices: an outlet is $104, a breaker $171 and a ceiling fan $495. Angi lists a $351 national average to hire an electrician (August 2026).
Can I get an electrician the same day in Redmond?
Often, yes. You can book any time by phone or online, and our electricians work Monday to Friday, 8 AM to 5 PM. We don't take after-hours electrical calls; if you see sparks or smoke or a line is down, call 911 or PSE.
What license do your electricians work under?
WA Electrical Contractor License #HOMECCA782DC, plus WA Contractor Registration #HOMECCA785BD. We are licensed, bonded and insured in Washington.
Will a 100-amp panel handle an EV charger or a heat pump?
Sometimes. We do a load check first. A load-managed circuit can work on some 100-amp services; others need a service upgrade, which takes a permit and the utility.
Should I replace a Federal Pacific or Zinsco panel?
Many homeowners do. We inspect it and give you a written replacement price if it needs one, using Square D, Eaton or Siemens panels or a smart panel.
Can you install a standby generator?
Yes. We install Generac and other major generator brands and service them for $465. Right now we offer $1,000 off generators.
Do you work on businesses as well as homes?
Yes, we do electrical work for homes and businesses.
What areas around Redmond do you cover?
Every part of Redmond, plus Kirkland, Bellevue, Woodinville and Sammamish.
Who issues electrical permits in Redmond?
The City of Redmond issues and inspects electrical permits inside city limits. Homes in unincorporated areas such as Redmond Ridge or Union Hill get permits from the state. We pull the required permits for our work.
Do I need to call PSE for a panel or service upgrade?
We coordinate it. PSE energizes the new service only after it passes electrical inspection, and only PSE sets or removes the meter. The meter base and mast belong to the homeowner.
Is there a PSE rebate for an EV charger?
Yes. PSE offers up to $300 for a qualifying ENERGY STAR smart Level 2 charger, more for income-qualified customers; apply within 60 days of install. We currently offer $200 off an EV charger install.
Can I keep my furnace running on a battery or generator in an outage?
Yes, with a transfer switch. It isolates the furnace circuit so backup power can't feed back into the grid. We size and install it as part of the job.
Can you check my panel before I add a heat pump?
Yes. We look at the panel's size, open spaces and load, and tell you whether the heat pump fits as is or needs panel work, with a written price.
