Mossville service area.
From our Lake Charles shop.
Trucks dispatch out of 803 W Bayou Pines Dr, Ste D, Lake Charles, LA 70601. Most days a crew is already inside Calcasieu Parish on another job, so the drive is short. For after-hours calls we roll one out from the shop.
Panel upgrade in Mossville most often takes a 100A or 125A service from a 1970s or 1980s home up to a modern 200A panel. Perimeter homes built in that era were sized for a fridge, lights, a window AC, and a well pump, and adding a heat pump, an EV charger, a Generac transfer switch, or a kitchen with a 50A range pushes them past their design.
A typical Mossville 200A upgrade replaces the meter base, mast, service-entrance conductors, panel, and grounding electrode system. We use Square D QO or Homeline Plug-on Neutral panels (200A main, 40-space minimum) so future AFCI and GFCI breakers stop fighting the neutral bar, and we install two NEC 250.53 driven ground rods six feet apart bonded with #6 AWG copper. The Entergy (or Cleco) disconnect ticket is coordinated by us, the parish AHJ inspection is scheduled by us, and we plan the outage so the home is back on power the same day. For homes with a detached shop or barn on a sub-feeder, we re-size the feeder if the new panel allows.
Permits are filed at the Calcasieu Parish Office of Permits and Inspections before the work begins. We do not ask homeowners to pull permits in their own name on electrical work.
What we look at for this job
Permits and inspections
Mossville sits in unincorporated Calcasieu Parish, so electrical permits are issued by the Calcasieu Parish Police Jury Building Division. We pull the permit and coordinate the parish inspector. Permit work runs under LA Lic #73821. You do not touch the paperwork.
What's covered
Lifetime Craftsmanship Guarantee on every install. If our work fails because of how we put it in, we come back and fix it at no charge. Documented in writing at handoff and stays with the home.
Why hiring a licensed electrician matters.

What Southwest Louisiana says about our work
Real reviews from real customers across Lake Charles, Sulphur, Moss Bluff, and the surrounding parishes.
I've had the privilege of getting to know Juliet and Dorian, and what stands out most is how much they care about people. They are genuine, kind, and passionate about doing things the right way qualities that shine through in the way they serve their customers and lead their company. In an industry where trust matters, Juliet and Dorian embody integrity, authenticity, and heart. I'd recommend them to anyone looking for electricians who treat their customers like family.
My experience with Hayse Electrical was a very possitive one. At my first meeting with Dorian and I explaining my situation with my problem I was having, he explained what the company was going to do in very precise detail, was able to quote me a price right away and set up an appointment in the meeting. On the day of my appointment McKenzie and Hayden called me ahead of time to say they were on their way and arrived when said time. They both worked continually all day til all the work was done. Both men were very nice and worked well together and alone. I would recommend Hayes Electrical, Dorian, Mckenzie and Hayden and I would use this company again.
A group of men and woman that are talented and focused. All licensed. Their customer service is excellent. They were able to upgrade my electrical system for a house built in the 1970s. We removed outdated fluorescent lighting, and these were replaced with current LED canned lighting, expanded the circuit board and repaired the drywall hole that the old fluorescence left in the ceiling. When we asked for options, they gave us multiple options from which we discussed pros and cons of each. Lastly, they are honest, trustworthy, and reliable.
Common questions for Electrical Panel Upgrade in Mossville
Do I really need a 200A service for my 1985 Mossville home?
If you have a heat pump, electric water heater, EV charger, whole-home generator, or plan to add any of them, yes. A 100A service can be made to work with a load calc but rarely leaves room for what is coming.
How long will my Mossville home be without power during the panel upgrade?
Typically four to eight hours, scheduled in a single day. We plan the outage early so most homes are back on power by mid-afternoon.
Is the Calcasieu Parish permit included in the price for my Mossville upgrade?
Yes. We pull the permit, schedule the inspection, and meet the inspector on site. The permit fee is itemized so you see exactly what the parish charged.
