We did a lot of last minute chances he was very patient with our requests and did exactly what we asked. We will definitely use him again and recommend his work without hesitation.

    "Ali, the owner, promptly called. Within minutes I hired him to help me and it was on labor day. Above and beyond from my point of view. My new laptop was locked with the blue screen of death. Something that has occurred quite frequently to many computer owners. It was impossible to recover on my own. Al diagnosed that I had a software issue in windows Fortunately it was not the hard drive. His prices were reasonable for what he had to do, I have my computer cleaned and new Microsoft installed. It was not only fixed but better than before with Ali's continuing support with questions. He is a friendly professional computer literate person who stands behind his work. Katie fort"

    "We are so accustomed to waiting for workmen/women to come to our house that when Peter arrived early, we were shocked and delighted. He was very knowledgeable and handled all of our needs competently and pleasantly. We added a large project to our list and he did a fine job on that, cleaning up not only the mess it caused him to make but a preexisting leaf mess in our garage. We used various other electricians in the past, but OC1 will be our go-to company from here on in."

    "I hired Stifflers Electric Service to rewire motion detector lights on my home to fix improper wiring install from the previous owner. Mr. Stiffler definitely knows what he's talking about. The price for the job was very reasonable. David completed the project promptly and the result exceeded my expectations. David also gave me good advice on other electrical work and saved me some money when recommended a remote switch for the future instead of installing a hard switch which would be more expensive. In addition, Mr. Stiffler also promised to come back and replace a blown light in one of the motion detector lights for no charge."

    "I am giving the highest recommendation possible to both Beacon Electrical Services and specifically to Dan McHale, who initially provided and installed an attic fan in our detached garage and then on a second job he dug/trenched/provided/installed a Cat6e line and conduit from the house to a detached building in the back yard. His work was pure perfection on both projects. Dan went the extra mile to "fix" a wire connection in the garage of which I was unaware was unsafe; and he maintained a kind disposition in the sweltering heat as he hand-dug a trench for 120 feet of line for future internet installation. Beacon Electrical's response to all of my inquiries was thorough and prompt; and Dan was very knowledgeable of the Fios/internet protocols. Each suggestion that Dan made improved upon my initial vision for how and where to place the line, conduit, and phone jack. Dan, again, went the extra mile by going into the house and into the crawl space to prepare the work that Verizon would not permit its employees to do during the Covid pandemic. Even after the job was done, on his day off from work, when Verizon arrived to hook up Fios and had questions, Dan was willing to intercede for me with the Verizon tech by further explaining to them what had been done so as to expedite Verizon's installation. Dan was respectful to me and to my elderly parents throughout each encounter. In the midst of the Covid pandemic, Beacon Electrical took every precaution to protect the customer from the very first greeting to the final signing off on the job. As my 90-year-old father wanted to constantly "be near the action," Dan made sure that my father didn't get within six feet (or more) when he wasn't wearing his face mask. Dan's kindness, professionalism, and pride in workmanship is undeniable. My experience with Beacon has been a blessing, and they will remain my electrical company of choice! If first impressions matter, Beacon Electric excelled ... from the clean and shiny company vehicle to the appearance of their representatives. Also, lastly, though not of any lesser impression, is the office personnel. Having prompt, courteous return calls is such a luxury these days. Congrats to the owners and managers. You have much of which to be proud. (A new forever client)"

    "Greenleaf Electric: very professional, assessed needs quickly. Installation of a ChargePoint home EV done after the local inspector required electrical upgrades for the main panel, changes to insure the house was up to code, including placement of a new mast. Other improvements done to bring my 1965 era home up to date. Greenleaf Electric is exceptional. Very pleased with the staff brought in to assist, the two inspectors from Frederick County, also Potomac Edison - all were professional. Also replaced security lights, installed Ring doorbell and cameras, installed new Carriage lights for the garage and front door. Just awesome! Thank you!"

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.
