"My experience with Award electric was amazing. Everyone was so nice! Melissa, Ward and Joshua! I had to add an outlet for a washer. They let me know everything before during and after. Work was clean and fast. I would highly recommend them for any of your electrical needs. Thank You Award Electric!"

"I had tile laid in the house and when they removed the stove the tile guys noticed that the stove outlet was on the floor behind the stove. Wires were exposed and the outlet box looked like it had been sparking. I contacted Bill thru Home Advisors and within 5 minutes he called me back and I had an appointment the following day. The appointment was set between 930AM & 1130AM I got the call just before 930AM they were headed my way. Gilbert the technician and his "sidekick" came in looked it over and said they could do the job right then. They installed the outlet in the wall like it should have been in the first place, the outlet itself was broken so Gilbert ran out to get a new one while the other technician kept working. Gilbert got back with the new outlet and it was finished up perfectly. Both guys were extremely nice, worked fast, and the price was very reasonable. I have some other small electrical projects to get done around here and I will be calling Bill Richards Electric again ---"

"Excellent experience working with Daystar Electric - they are skilled professionals, and provide excellent service. . I had a lot of work associated with a home remodel. Roger met with me to review the work and work up an estimate - he provided excellent suggestions and advice. The work was done efficiently and expertly, and with minimal disruption to drywall/ceilings. Communication was excellent throughout the process. It was a pleasure working with Daystar and I will definitely hire them again. Highly recommend"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

You can make a pigtail with either thermoplastic high-heat-resistant nylon-coated (THHN) wire or non-metallic (NM) cable, often referred to as “Romex.” Each pigtail requires a neutral wire, a ground wire, and a live wire. The gauge of your pigtail wires must match the gauge of those on the device. 

The number of outlets and lights you can safely run on a single circuit depends on the circuit's amperage and local electrical codes. A general rule is to allow one outlet or light fixture per 1.5 amps, keeping the total load under 80% of the circuit breaker's capacity. For example, a 15-amp circuit can typically support up to eight outlets or lights, while a 20-amp circuit can accommodate up to ten. Always consider the combined power usage of all connected devices and fixtures to prevent overloading. For specific guidelines and to ensure safety, it is best to consult local electrical codes or a licensed electrician.

Rewiring projects cost anywhere between $1,500 and $10,000 on average, depending on the complexity and the size of the rewiring. You can anticipate spending between $2 and $4 per square foot of wire, including labor and materials. Wire material ranges from $0.25 to $1.60 per linear foot.

If you have a tank-type electric water heater, it runs regularly to keep the water at the desired temperature. If you live in a home where you don’t use much hot water, it could seem wasteful to run power to heat water that you’re using infrequently. You could save some power by using a smaller tank, insulating the tank, or lowering the temperature of the water heater.

Smoke detectors come in two different options: hardwired or battery-operated. While hardwired units are attached directly to the home’s electrical system, a battery-operated smoke detector only needs a simple battery for operation and can be placed virtually anywhere in your home. Some homeowners may mistakenly think their battery-operated units are hardwired in because all their units are interconnected, but many battery-operated units can operate within a smoke alarm network in your home.
