Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include: <ul><li>The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check</li><li>Required to have applicable state and local licenses</li><li>Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review</li><li>Paying to advertise their services</li><li>Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi</li></ul> Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.</div>

Q: What do electricians charge per hour?

<div>Qualified, licensed electricians will charge from $50 to $100 per hour. The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-hire-electrician.htm">cost to hire an electrician</a> for emergency visits may range from $100 to $200 per hour because this urgent service usually takes place during off hours and may require an electrician to leave or reschedule jobs they&rsquo;re currently working on. Scheduling work on holidays or during periods of high customer demand, like after a major storm, will also lead to higher rates or extra fees.</div>

His workers, Jared and Jose, were professional and very thorough! They were the best subcontractor on our remodeling project! Mike gave advice based on what was best for my place and not the most expensive option.

I needed an electrician asap or my project would would stopped and I would have had to wait another two months for the subcontractor to return. Charles Young responded within an hour of my voice mail and had an electrician at my house within two hours. They saved my project!!

Terrific. This is a wonderful electrical subcontractor. They are very easy to work with, prompt, thorough, safety-conscious, pleasant to have in your home, and professional. I would highly recommend them. They may not be the cheapest in town, but the slight extra expense is worth it for sure!
