Upgrading the meter base, mast, and feeders for a full service increase — the heavy work that supports everything downstream.
$2,000–$5,000 · Full Service

$800–$3,000 · Room to Grow

GFCI / AFCI & Code Updates
Adding GFCI/AFCI protection and bringing a panel up to current code — often required at sale or after an inspection.

From a sparking outlet to a full 200-amp panel upgrade — here's how AllBetter replaces the guesswork.
Show Us the Issue
Take a photo of the outlet, panel, fixture, or breaker message and describe what’s happening in plain English — flickering, dead circuit, burning smell. Verified electricians see the real job and bid accurately.
Compare Real Bids
Review bids side by side: price, identity verification status, completed jobs, and ratings. Use the in-app chat to ask about license, insurance, materials, and timing — all without exchanging your phone number.
Pay When You Approve
Your money sits in escrow while the electrician works. Inspect the finished job and tap Approve — only then is the pro paid. Posting and comparing is free; a small service fee applies at booking.
Let a Pro In — Without the Pit in Your Stomach.
Hiring an electrician means trusting a stranger around your home and your family. AllBetter makes that easy: you see who they are, what they charge, and what others paid — before anyone knocks on your door.
- You choose the face. Ratings, reviews, and photos of real past work — pick the electrician you actually trust.
- The price is the price. Fixed bids in writing — no service-call fee, no mid-job "actually, it's more."
- Your money waits for you. It sits in escrow until you see the finished work and tap Approve.
Strangers in Your House Shouldn't Be Strangers.
Electricity is invisible — which makes it easy to overcharge or take a deposit and vanish. Two checks and one habit shut that down:
ID-Verified to Bid
Government ID confirmed by identity before they ever see your job. No anonymous "Joe with a truck."
Every pro · no exceptionsEscrow-Protected Payment
Your money sits in escrow while the work happens. The pro is paid when you approve the finished job — not before.
