What Makes Our Solar Services Different
Most solar installers in Milwaukee only handle panels; we handle what's behind the walls, too. As licensed electricians, we find and fix issues like incorrect wiring, undersized systems, or code violations that others miss. This background makes our installs safer, more reliable, and longer-lasting than panel-only providers.
Every installation is completed by our certified Lehmann Electrical technicians, with no third-party contractors and no inconsistent work quality. You get the same level of expertise and attention to detail from consultation through final inspection, with direct accountability to our company throughout the entire process.
We understand Wisconsin's unique solar challenges: roof loads for snow, optimal panel angles for northern latitudes, and local utility interconnection requirements. Our team knows Milwaukee and Waukesha County permitting processes, building codes, and weather patterns that affect solar performance year-round.
Solar panels last 25+ years, and we'll be here the entire time. Need system maintenance, performance monitoring, or electrical work years after installation? We're your local partner for the life of your solar investment, not a national company that might disappear or outsource service calls.

Frequently Asked Solar Questions
Upgrading electrical panels typically costs homeowners $1,800-$3,200. Most folks end up paying around $2,400 for a standard 100A to 200A upgrade.
Price jumps happen when dealing with older homes where the wiring needs work or when panels need relocation. The permit fees add another $150-200 to the bill.
The age of your home matters big time. Pre-1980s houses often need more extensive work since the original wiring wasn't designed for today's electrical demands. Ranch homes tend to be straightforward jobs while split-levels can get tricky with panel placement.
Worth mentioning to customers that while the upfront cost seems steep, upgraded panels prevent hazardous overloads, accommodate modern appliances, and can lower insurance rates. Most homeowners see the value once they understand the safety benefits.
The inspectors are known for being thorough, so quality work is essential for passing inspection the first time around.
Replacing a breaker box runs $1,800-$3,000 depending on what you're dealing with. Most homes here need to jump from their old 100-amp service to 200-amps to handle modern demands.
The price swings based on access issues - panels tucked in crawlspaces or behind finished walls cost more. Older homes sometimes need service line upgrades too, which means coordinating with the utility company.
Permit costs add about $150. The inspectors are particular about grounding and bonding - they'll fail you quick if connections aren't perfect.
I've found most customers don't realize those ancient Federal Pacific or Zinsco panels aren't just outdated - they're genuine fire hazards. Worth pointing out the safety angle, not just the convenience of having more circuits.
Jobs typically take a full day. Homeowners appreciate knowing upfront they'll be without power, so they can plan accordingly. Most are surprised how much smoother their electrical system runs afterward - no more flickering lights when the AC kicks on.
