Whether you're running a restaurant on Pine Avenue, managing retail near the Pike, or operating an industrial facility at the Port of Long Beach, an undersized panel is a bottleneck your business can't afford. Older 100-amp services weren't built for today's demands: commercial kitchens, POS systems, heavy warehouse equipment. Upgrading to a properly sized 200-amp or 400-amp panel gives you the capacity to add equipment and expand without constant breaker trips or overloaded circuits. Shaffer Construction carries a triple CSLB license (A, B, and C-10), which means we handle the full scope of a panel upgrade, not just the electrical swap. We take care of City of Long Beach permits and inspections in-house: no third-party permit runners, no finger-pointing between trades. Our crews bring 25-plus years of Los Angeles experience to every job, from aging mid-century distribution panels to overloaded sub-panels in multi-tenant buildings. Call (323) 642-8509 or email hello@shaffercon.com for a free, no-obligation estimate. We'll assess your current service, explain what an upgrade involves for your specific building, and give you straightforward numbers on cost and timeline so you can make the right call for your business.
