J Allen construction - South Lake Tahoe's Best Electrical Company

Absolutely. We frequently work on electrical panel upgrades for South Lake Tahoe homeowners adding EV chargers or solar systems. Circuit overloads are a common local issue, especially in older homes. We can assess your current panel's capacity, install a new panel or sub-panel if needed, and ensure your new EV charger circuit is properly installed and permitted to handle Tahoe's power demands.

Yes, we do. As a general contractor with expertise in carpentry, framing, and interior finishes like tile and sheetrock, we coordinate the entire project. This means we handle the kitchen remodel—including any necessary electrical updates for new appliances or lighting—and seamlessly manage the deck construction, ensuring proper structural ties to the house and a cohesive final result for your South Lake Tahoe home.

Building an ADU in Tahoe involves specific steps: first, we help you navigate local zoning and permit requirements.

We manage all trades to create a comfortable, efficient, and code-compliant accessory dwelling unit.
