About one to two hours for a typical single-family house.
Will you pressure me to do repairs?
No. The findings are yours. If you want a price for any of the items, we will give you one.

New circuits, panel changes and service work generally need a permit from the local construction office. Simple like-for-like replacements usually do not. We tell you when your job needs one.
