Comment: We tried to change a few light fixtures and switches. It appears to us that some of the wiring needs to be replaced. We just had 2 outlets stop working, when the circuit breaker is on.

"Michael got the job done! Very professional. His advice saved me a lot of money. I didn’t need a panel upgrade but needed extra outlets and switches installed in my panel. He was respectful and listened to my problems before diagnosing the issue and fixing it…He also cleaned up the debris after he finished! Would highly recommend him!"

"We had a fantastic experience working with Ali, the owner of the business! He installed multiple ceiling fans and lighting fixtures for us, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. What really stood out was his being intelligent, quickly figuring out how to work with various ceiling fan brands, which can be tricky. His work was precise, careful, and incredibly efficient. He graciously fit us in at the end of a very busy day, which we truly appreciated. He stayed organized throughout the job and even left the old fans neatly packed in boxes for us to discard, which was thoughtful. We already have more projects in mind and wouldn’t hesitate to hire him again. Highly recommend!"

"I had a great experience with EV Electrical. Uriel and his Father were extremely attentive, professional, and detail-oriented throughout the entire project. From outlet installation to kitchen lighting, they took the time to make sure everything was done correctly and kept me informed every step of the way. What stood out the most was their follow-through and commitment. Even when one part of the project was pending, they made sure to come back and complete the job properly instead of leaving anything unfinished. Their work ethic, reliability, and quality of work were truly appreciated. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for dependable and honest electricians."

"I needed an electrician to replace sconces and a chandelier in my dining room. I contacted Angi and the next day I received a call from Semir from Solaris. He came to my apartment the next day to see what needed to be done. Based on that meeting, I ordered new fixtures. Semir returned and did the work. He was very professional in his work, and he cleaned everything up when he was finished. After surveying what was needed to get 2 track fixtures working, he purchased and installed 2 new transformers and replaced all the halogen bulbs with LED. One of the track fixtures needs further work and he will be returning to complete that job this coming week. I would highly recommend Solaris and Semir to anyone needing an electrician. 5 stars is not even high enough."

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:
- Installing a light fixture or chandelier
- Installing a ceiling fan
- Adding an outlet
- Updating or replacing a circuit breaker
- Installing or updating an electrical panel
- Adding outdoor lighting and other electrical features
For cost information related to the above tasks, visit our Electrical Cost Guide.
- 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. - Do you have insurance?
Never use one who isn’t insured. You can ask to see proof of insurance. - 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. - What are your rates?
Always ask up front. Getting a detailed quote up front is the best way to go. - 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. - Is your work warrantied or guaranteed?
Any reputable company or contractor warranties their work, usually for at least a year. - 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 ChargesRates 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 TogetherWhen 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.
- 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.
