There's no way you're getting a new box, meter, and service wire for $2k anywhere in the US. Certainly not California.
Plus, lots of places require these to be buried. So you've got trenching costs and that's a pain too. $20k is definitely within the ballpark of a cost.
- kube-system 4y agoDid mine last year for $1200... and I had new grounds installed for that price too. But yes, it was above ground. But my point is, if someone need to do all of these things, it's for a reason. And these tasks aren't "upgrade a circuit", they're, "upgrade my home's electrical service"
- treis 4y agoLike I said, it's a spiral. You have a moldy bathroom and they make you get a car charger, which is a new circuit, which changes the load calculation, which changes your service needs, which changes your box requirements. Strict adherence to code has a way of making costs explode.
