    "I recently had the EV Guys team install a Tesla charger at my home and I couldnâ t be more pleased with the service. The team was incredibly professional and efficient from start to finish. They not only executed the installation flawlessly but also recommended the perfect spot in my garage for the charger, allowing for 360-degree access. This strategic placement has made it incredibly convenient for me to charge my vehicle. Their attention to detail and thoughtful approach to the installation process truly stood out. I highly recommend EV Guys to anyone looking to install an EV charger at home. Great job, team!"

I had a deadline and he worked me into his full schedule so that I wouldn't miss it. He was upfront on the cost and got the job done efficiently. He does excellent work. I will definitely be using Elite Sparks Electric on my next project."

    "I was told by The Geek Squad to install on electric outlet above my fireplace to install a 55 inch flat screen television. I looked online for an electrical contractor in my area and was recommended to 3 contractors. I filled out my name, address, email address and phone number and as soon as I was investigating the On Site Electric LLC, I received a phone call from Scott Larsen who advised of the costs and was here the next day. He and his apprentice took only an hour of labor to get me set up with a new outlet, they were very professional and very thorough. The job was done to better than my expectation. I give them a 5 thumbs up."

    "Very professional group of people. I had some challenging track lighting that I needed installed and the electrician came up with a great way to run the wires to each individual light fixture. I was very happy with his results. When I do my lighting on the upper level of my home, I will be calling them for an estimate and hope they have the same people working there."

Ours us an old house remodel, and TJ's skill has successfully untangled 100 years of wiring chaos. He also has terrific project manager skills, connecting us with and coordinating with our other contractors. He's definitely our "go- to" electrician from here out! Thanks TJ!"

    "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."

    "Punctual, Professional, amazing value. We just bought a house and needed some electrical work done - a car charger and some additional circuits in the garage. Igor and his team: 1) Did incredible work that I'm really happy with. 2) when the first crew got called away on an emergency job Igor (the owner) stepped in and finished off the work himself! You cannot beat that for service and professionalism. Overall 11/10, I will be hiring this company again any time I need electrical work done."

    "They provided an accurate quote, were on time and did everything we needed them to do. What more could you ask for? On top of that, they made recommendations that saved us a lot of money and spent a little extra time upgrading some of our existing wiring so that we got the best quality install. The entire experience was great and easy and I feel like we made the right choice going with them for our job. If we ever have anything like it in the future they will be the first people we call!"

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.
