We have used several other companies but will not ever again.
We received a bad inspection report for our panel when we were trying to sell our home. Kalahari came in and went over the report. We looked over and signed a moderately priced quote. Then they set off to do the work to tidy up the panel a bit and swap out breakers. Once into it they decide they would rewire the whole thing. They did not charge extra and were still in and out fast. We have used several other companies but will not ever again.

He came out the same day/stayed until midnight to get it fixed.
Excellent customer service is hard to find these days; however, Jan has it down to an art form. I had company in from out of town during the 105 degree days and he came out the same day/stayed until midnight to get it fixed and he was leaving for vacation the next day…not to mention the rates were very reasonable. I will never use another electrician. Jan far exceeded my expectations and that is saying a lot. He even called to follow-up and make sure there were no issues. FIRST CLASS SERVICE!
– Satisfied Customer
They are my go-to electricians.
I have used them many times and they are great. Reliable, knowledgeable, courteous and easy to work with. They are my go-to electricians. Always available and always there when you are counting on them.

Atlanta continues to grow as one of the Southeast’s major hubs for tech, business, and home development. With older homes being renovated and new neighborhoods expanding across the Metro area, homeowners can qualify for programs that help reduce the cost of electrical upgrades.
If you’re planning a panel upgrade, EV charger installation, or major electrical repair, here are a few local resources and incentives that may apply to Atlanta homeowners.
If your property is inside Atlanta’s city limits, you’ll need a permit from the Office of Buildings, City of Atlanta (part of the Department of City Planning) to install, repair or replace electrical systems.
A licensed electrician like Kalahari Electrical Services can handle the permit application and inspection coordination for you.
Always verify your electrician is properly licensed; use the Georgia Secretary of State website to confirm credentials.
For instance, if you look up Kalahari Electrical Services, you’ll find our license number (EN213186).
In both cases, you’ll have to get a permit for any project that includes modifying your electrical infrastructure.
Getting a permit takes anywhere from a few days to a few weeks, depending on how complex your project is.
You’ll have to pay a permit fee, which can vary based on the size of your home and the value of the project.
Licensed electricians like the experts from Kalahari Electrical Services can apply for an electrical permit on your behalf, and handle the final inspection with the city or county’s building department.
To make sure you’re working with a licensed electrician, you can use the Georgia Secretary of State website.
Georgia Power offers several incentives, including rebates for home energy assessments, smart thermostats, and Level 2 EV charger when installed by a licensed electrician.

Atlanta is home to a mix of historic properties and rapidly expanding new neighborhoods, which means we see a wide variety of electrical issues. In older homes, outdated panels, aluminum wiring, and circuits that no longer meet current code requirements are extremely common, especially since Georgia adopted the 2023 National Electrical Code statewide on January 1, 2025. With the City of Atlanta set to fully enforce it for new permit applications beginning February 1, 2026, many existing systems will need attention.

The cost of electrical work in Atlanta depends on several factors specific to your project and property. We evaluate the scope and complexity of the job, the type and quantity of materials required, whether permits and inspections are needed, and the condition of your existing electrical system. Older Atlanta homes that require upgrades to meet the 2023 National Electrical Code may involve additional work compared to newer construction.
Atlanta homeowners may also qualify for programs and rebates through Georgia Power or other local resources that can help reduce the cost of panel upgrades, EV charger installations, and other electrical improvements. We provide upfront, itemized pricing so you know exactly what to expect before any work begins. Give us a call at 678-665-2309 to schedule yours.
