    Electrical Switches, Outlets and Fixtures - Install or Repair

    "Very trustworthy, competent electrical contractor / master electrician. Installed new 54-inch ceiling fan-light fixture along with two (2) associated wall-mounted wireless control switches. This project also involved removing existing ceiling light fixture and replacing existing ceiling-mounted support bracket with new stronger support bracket. Competitive rates. Strongly recommend this company."

    "The project included adding an outside outlet so I could directly plug a portable generator into my electrical panel, installing a whole house surge protector, and repairing two outlets. I feel the work was done very well and for a reasonable price."

    "I have worked with them professionally and had them out for my own personal residence, and they are top notch. Without hesitation, I called Melissa and expressed the urgency for an electrician. Same day I had Lenny and his team over to repair issues that could have been very dangerous had they not been taken care of right away. Always friendly, and there when you need them. I would highly recommend them to any business or residence that needs a reputable electrician. Thank you."

    "Chris is very knowledgeable in his field of expertise. He knows what he is doing and what works best. There were some hiccups during the installation process (it was a very complicated and extended setup) but he figured out all the issues and got it all working for us. Highly recommend anyone looking for any network setup, at home or your business. He does a very professional and thorough job at a very reasonable price."

    "We had a exhaust fan installed in the bathroom with an additional switch and another project few years later involved converting our light switch to a smart switch. The only thing I didn't like was that at the time (obviously this could be different now) they didn't offer the ability to pay with credit card. I had to go get cash. Now a days every business big or small should offer ability to pay with credit. Besides that great service. I would use them again as I already have twice."

    "Matt and his crew were very prompt and worked together well, i had them replace my older main panel and sub with a new larger one and relocate at the same time. on top of that i had them wire a backup generator outlet, new ac breaker box outside and a new outlet for my sump pump and a whole house surge protector. they were nice enough to also run some new wire for me in case i want to add a few more circuits. they were on time at 9am to start and put in the extra effort to get it all done in one day and were out the door shortly after 6pm. the price for all that work was a little less than i expected and glad we had the work done. great quality, clean install and would hire again!"

    "Kevin , our electrician was efficient and very pleasant completing our project. We were given an estimate a week ago, completed job promptly, and beat the price from the estimate. I would be glad to refer him for further electrical work. The job was explained to us and we had a complete electrical panel with breakers replaced and each breaker was labeled with function for ease of knowing what appliance / service was associated with each switch. Thank you Jim and Liz"

Frequently asked questions

  • An electrician’s cost per hour comes in between $50 and $100. It’ll vary depending on your location and the type or professional you hire. Areas with a higher cost of living can expect to pay on the higher end of that scale. Licensing level may also increase the price.
  • Usually you’ll pay a higher rate for the first hour. This covers their travel and time expense. Emergency or after-hours rates are usually higher too – expect to pay an emergency fee of up to $300 plus a higher hourly rate.

Electricians do a fair amount of larger remodeling and new construction projects but also common residential projects including:

For cost information related to the above tasks, visit our Electrical Cost Guide.

  1. Do you have a license to perform electrical work in this state?
    All states require an electrical license or work performed under a Master Electrician. You should also ask how many on the job hours of experience they have.
  2. Do you have insurance?
    Never use one who isn’t insured. You can ask to see proof of insurance.
  3. Do you have prior work references?
    You might skip this for small jobs like installing a light or outlet. For larger projects, always get references.
  4. What are your rates?
    Always ask up front. Getting a detailed quote up front is the best way to go.
  5. Who is going to do the actual work?
    Often, a Master Electrician will come out to diagnose and bid on projects, but they have their apprentice and journeyman electricians do the work. This isn’t a terrible thing, in fact it’s common practice. The Master’s license is on the line with any work he supervises.
  6. Is your work warrantied or guaranteed?
    Any reputable company or contractor warranties their work, usually for at least a year.
  7. Are you usually on time?
    Overbooking is a frequent problem with electrical work. Often, a service call goes long, and they end up showing up at your home late. This common complaint is easily remedied with an up-front and honest discussion. If they can’t be on time, make sure they’ll call.

1. Don’t Be Misled by an Electrician’s Hourly Rates

A truly skilled, well-equipped professional with a truck full of parts that charges $100 an hour can be a much wiser choice than an inexperienced hack, working with inadequate tools and no parts, but charging much less. Often, more experienced professionals get the job done quickly with warrantied work.

2. Compare Travel Charges

Rates reflect travel times. Travel charges can have a big impact on your costs and are in some ways easier to compare than hourly rates. Many electricians spend a third or more of their time navigating traffic on their way to a jobsite. Every contractor must find a way to pay for the expense of driving each day.

3. Bundle Repair Jobs Together

When you feel it’s time to call a pro, review your list and then conduct a mini-inspection of your home. Look for faulty switches and dysfunctional or crowded outlets. When the electrician comes, you’ll save money and time by getting everything taken care of at once.

4. How to Prepare & What to Know Before the Electrician Arrives
  • Be as thorough and detailed in describing your needs to your contractor. The more they know, the quicker the job will go.
  • Before they arrive, prepare a precise list of items you want serviced. Electricians have budgeted their time for a service call. They don’t have time for additional requests once they are on site.
  • Make sure the electrical panel box is accessible. You’ll pay for the time it takes to access it.
  • Clear away fragile items, knickknacks and furniture from areas where you expect the them to work.
  • If you have questions about the project, ask them before they start. Most are happy to run you through the problem and the process of fixing it.
  • Ask about potential issues after the work is complete. During a service call a professional will spot any potential hazards.
  • You’ll lose power to parts of your home while they work. Be prepared to pause anything you’re doing during the service call.
  • In most cases you’ll have the option to either pay at the time of service or have a bill sent to you. You’ll be able to pay with cash, credit and sometimes check.
5. Install Money-Saving Electrical Fixtures
  • By switching from ordinary incandescent light fixtures or bulbs to fluorescent or LED ones, you can substantially reduce energy consumption in your home.
  • Motion detector switches can help you save money on outdoor lighting while at the same time providing very cost-effective security to your home.
  • Creative landscape lighting and indoor accent lighting can make your home more appealing to you, your guests and potential buyers in the future.

    Comment: The house was probably wired by the previous owners in the 70s or 80s and we think it was not done to code. There is a real problem of plugs that stopped working over the years, light switches that need two different switches to be on to turn something on, and I just worry something could be wrong. I would love a quote for how much a 1,900sqft house would be to rewire, we have a main floor, a second story, and a basement. If possible to get a quote on a basement remodel to become a finished space as well that would be amazing, but I would like these quotes to be separated.
