Boris is not a licensed electrician. He does small repair work on existing wiring: swapping outlets, switches, light fixtures and ceiling fans. Anything that needs a permit and an inspector's sign-off — a panel upgrade, a new circuit, an EV charger or rewiring — is a job for a licensed contractor, and he'll tell you so up front.
