    "Mike was very responsive and reasonably priced. He installed a 220V line and an EV charger in my garage. A 65ft long line needed to be run on our flat roof from the electrical panel. Very neat, very professional. Work was superior to previous work we've had performed by other electricians. I'll be sure to use him again should I need more electrical work at my residence."

    "JMG was very prompt. They arrived very quickly. Juan was super friendly and professional. They tracked down my electrical problem and fixed it straight away. The price was very reasonable and I highly recommend JMG for any electrical problems that come up. I will definitely use them again if I need some electrical work."

    "I originally hired AKA to install 2 ceiling fans. When the electrician got to my house, I asked if they could do some additional work with a few lighting fixtures around my house. The work was completed very efficiently and they had no issues with the extra work. Pricing was fair as well. The electrician saved me some money by inspecting my existing electrical boxes where the fans were going and discovering they were already sufficient for supporting the weight of a ceiling fan. Saved me about 40 bucks on fan braces. He could have just told me he needed to replace them and charge me but he didn’t. I will use this company again when I have the need for an electrician."

    "They went above and beyond. My electrical outlet in the living room (with tv, etc) had stopped working. They came and were able to replace the wiring and got the outlets to work. They also re-installed the outlet in the downstairs bathroom and was able to install a new light fixture in the upstairs bathroom. The last electrician we hired wasnâ t able to do any of these tasks. We had gone without electric in these areas for a while. Thank god for Angi. I was able to hire them through Angi and they did an awesome job. I will be keeping them in mind anytime I have electrical issues in the future!"

    "We hired Albuquerque Plumbing and Heating because we had used them before to replace a water heater. They replaced our dead air conditioner. Not only were they the lowest bid for the same air conditioning unit but the entire installation was nothing short of perfect. They sent out two guys who were professional, courteous and competent. They respected our wishes that they wear a mask while in the house. I recommend this company whole heartedly!"

    "Upgraded electrical panel, rewired 220 outlet. Orlando and his crew showed up when expected, and completed work on time for price agreed upon, he even handled a few additional details beyond the original scope of work. He was polite, respectful, answered all questions, and was completely transparent about the work being done. and the required inspections. Will be booking additional projects soon with Lobo."

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.
