"Trustworthy, efficient, competent and friendly. Good communication, also. I have used dye-hard electric for several things around the house such as ceiling fan installation, cam lights and some rewiring. Never disappointed. I highly recommend Dye-hard electric."

"I bought the $299 for eight hours deal, but my hubby had all the contact with them. He said when he called to make the appointment, the female was very nice and set the appointment up when he wanted it, which was at 10 a.m. Someone called yesterday to remind us of the appointment and told hubby that it was $75 extra if they had to go into the attic. Hubby called me at work to see if I knew about this, and I told him I did, but I didn't know if they needed to go into the attic. This morning (Jan 22), when hubby got back from the post office at 9:15 a.m., they were waiting in the driveway, an hour early. He brought them in and they went to work. We were having electrical problems with some outlets not working, and the light over the sink and in the garage not working at all. According to the receipt, they ran line to the patio for two outlets and a ceiling fan, as well as installing the outlets. They ran a new line to the garage. They installed some new breakers in the panel. Hubby said they were professional and quick, and were done at 11:15. Hubby had bought wire and a couple of outlets. The electrician used all of it, plus some of his supplies, so we  paid another $204.60. Everything is working now, except for one outlet which was hard to get to. I think if I had been home, I would have found some more things for them to do, because they were there for only two hours. But, as of right now, they did a good job.

Electrical questions, answered by experts

While most electrical items can be plugged into a GFCI outlet, some appliances with internal or stationary motors, such as refrigerators, vent fans, and fluorescent lighting, can cause nuisance tripping. This happens because they experience a small, normal amount of current leakage, which can cause the GFCI to trip even when the appliance is working correctly. Although this is not a safety hazard, it can be inconvenient and may cause the GFCI outlet to wear out faster. For this reason, it is often better to plug these types of appliances into a standard outlet. Additionally, electrical circuits over 100 feet long can sometimes cause tripping. Some appliances, like hair dryers, have their own built-in GFCI protection, so connecting them to a standard outlet is fine.

Yes, you can put a GFCI outlet in almost any electrical outlet location. As long as the outlet is wired correctly back to a circuit breaker, you can likely replace the existing outlet with a GFCI outlet.

A larger heater requires a larger breaker—unless there’s one already installed. The longer answer to this question is more nuanced. Do you place demands on the heater at the same time as running other heavy-duty appliances like ovens and washing machines? Do you live in an older home that may not have considered the higher electrical demands we have now? Breakers need to be sized at 125% of the load. To find that load, you should call a local electrical pro.

An electrician will charge between $100 to $150 to install a new light switch. Whether you need to cut into the wall and repair drywall will determine your final project cost, as you can expect to pay $50 to $75 per square foot to repair drywall.

240V is the standard for more demanding appliances in the United States, whereas 220V is more common elsewhere. The voltage isn’t very different in any practical sense. The United States is a newer country compared to many other regions in the world with a faster adoption of new electrical needs. Appliances in the United States are often bigger than other parts of the world.
