    "Tripped Electric upgraded our main service panel in our barn, and trenched a new 100-amp sub-panel to our shop. Every electrician on site was knowledgeable, and smiled even though I asked them a million questions. PUD disconnect, rewire/upgrade, Snohomish County L&I inspection, PUD service re-connected, back up and running in 2 days! I went out and bought a lotto ticket, who the hell gets PUD on site 2 days in a row?! (No disrespect PUD, all the linemen were super cool.) Seriously though, for any local electrical needs, residential or commercial, I highly recommend calling Tripped Electric. Reminds you of the good ol' days when local businesses actually gave a crap about their customers."

    "I am writing this review with JOY in my heart. I have been a homeowner for 35 years and have NEVER had service like this before. The light sockets in my basement apartment were not working. I do not have a 'go to' electrician. The last guy charged me ridiculous amounts of money for a job he never completed. My confidence in finding an honest provider was low. I call a home builder friend who recommended New Electric. It was THE BEST call I have ever made. Jacob arrived that same day after his work shift was complete. He assessed the situation, fixed the problem and within an hour all was good in the world. He advised me and made recommendations. No pressure, no sales pitch. He charged me $180. Wait, what? that's how much companies charge just to come out to assess let alone FIX a problem. Later that week another issue came up-one he had warned about. Again, I call, he arrives promptly, handles the situation and BOOM! Done. I think I am in LOVE with this company! THANK YOU"

    "Rock Electric was great. We had electricity brought to a new shop in our backyard. The Rock people were on time, they stayed in touch while we were scheduling and rescheduling. The initial visit went well and all the little details were worked out in a straightforward manner. No issues when we requested the work be permitted either. They were accommodating and professional When there was a question about the trench we dug that we thought met specs they reached out immediately and made sure they were ok to proceed. The job was done quickly and the permitting inspection was also done at the same time. Great customer service. They did a fine job of staying in touch for time frames. After initially speaking with some other outfits that never got back to us or did not show or call for their scheduled appts it was refreshing to work with a group with conscientious, communicative, customer oriented people. We would definitely hire them again if a project comes up. Thanks guys."

    "I had a great experience with Wire Craft. They installed 2 recessed lights where no lights had been, replaced 1 hanging chandelier with 3 recessed lights and replaced 1 track lighting system. They arrived when promised, did a great job, left my home as clean as it was before they did the work and even cut some $ from the bid price because it took an hour less time than estimated. I will so use them again."

    "Everything was smooth in terms of the project. There was a hiccup with the quote I got because they mistaken the installation as an indoor installation. But it was outdoors. We agreed on a price that worked (which was higher than initial quote). They did a great job and made sure inspection was done. Great job. I would go back for future electrical projects."

    "I hired Austin to install an EV charger in my garage. Austin was very attentive, coming out on my schedule to do a quick walkthrough of the garage and give me an estimate. I found his estimate to be very fair, and we scheduled a time this last weekend to have it installed. Austin gathered all information he needed and arrived on time to perform the job. Overall it took about 4.5 hours for him to run the conduit for the charger to the other side of the garage, and install the charger. The charger worked right off the bat, and the inspector just stopped by and said it was good work. Overall, I would recommend Austin to anyone looking to do electrical work in their home, and I will absolutely use him again."

He checked the fixture for the suspected short and found there wasn't one. He replaced the light bulb and left without charging me anything. The fixture with the new lightbulb in it is working just fine now. Thanks to Scott and his wonderful work in checking everything out before coming to the proper conclusion. Love him! When I need electrical work, I will definitely call Mr. Electric!!!!"

    "Sound Power installed a new 100A service line from my main service panel to a sub panel in my detached garage. They showed up on time, communicated clearly and professionally, and did excellent work. Despite running into some unforeseen challenges (totally not their fault) and needing an extra day to complete the project, they did not charge extra, ethical and trustworthy. I went with Sound Power after getting 3 other quotes, theirs was the best, so I feel comfortable saying their price was fair. I would hire them again or recommend them to others."

    "We sold our house last month ï¼ however ï¼ During the home inspection, we encountered an electrical issue. We hired Vets Power Electric LLC to help us fix the electrical problems in the kitchen and bathroom. They were very professional and incredibly friendly. They are well-trained, highly skilled, and worked efficiently. They helped us fix the GFCI outlet; we had six outlets that weren't working, and one GFCI that needed to be replaced. They managed to resolve everything in just 10 minutes. Their tools were all readily available, so I didnâ t even need to go to Home Depot. The whole process was very smooth, and they gave me plenty of advice, from which I learned a lot. I will definitely continue to choose Vets Power Electric LLC for any future electrical issues I might encounter. I highly recommend this companyâ theyâ re truly outstanding!"

    "An overdue review for spring work by Kyle and the team at MECO. We needed to replace an outdated electric panel and bring it up to code, reconfigure our laundry room power supplies, and fix some problematic outlets. This is a tight knit outfit that provides very competitive bids and works to ensure complete satisfaction before the job closes. As a small business owner Kyleâ s day extends far beyond the standard 9-5. Share up front what times and communication methods work best for you, but remember to be patient when heâ s out in the field. MECO got us through a challenging situation with our laundry room setup, and also helped us save money when they determined we could scale back an outside project after consulting with the city. Thank you Kyle for personalized, quality service."

    "Bogdan was awesome. An expert electrician and super friendly. He installed extra panels on each side of our exterior for both hot tub and generator, installed dozens of outlets and light switches, 3 way switches, and pendant lights, led lighting under counters, sconces on the deck and large led light panels in the garage. He advised on kitchen island outlet locations and floor outlets for lamps in the living room. Came out multiple times as needed for add on requests. He also installed our Tesla Charging Station in our garage. He is trustworthy and does an excellent job."

    "I had Max come over to fix my electric panel, and he was absolutely awesome! First of all, he showed up right on time, which is already a win in my book. You can tell he really knows his stuff?he took a look, explained the issue in simple terms, and laid out my options without overcomplicating things. Max was super friendly and easy to talk to. He didn?t just focus on the job; he also made sure I understood what he was doing and gave me some handy tips to keep everything running smoothly in the future. The repair was done quickly, but Max didn?t rush anything?he made sure every detail was taken care of. Bonus points for leaving the place clean afterward. If you need a reliable, skilled, and all-around great electrician, Max is definitely the one to call. Highly recommend!"

His estimate was reasonable (and exactly what we paid) and we were able to get the work done quickly. On top of it, we lost power to our garage the day he came out to replace knob and tube. He troubleshooted and fixed for free since he was already there and it was a quick fix -- it shows what a good guy he is!"

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.
