"Received a call right away and they were able to schedule me in for the same day. Adrian kept me informed of his arrival time and worked late in order to figure out the problem with the current issue with the solar panels. He needed parts to repair the issue and scheduled time to come back and install them. Adrian is very pleasant and professional. I’m would use them for future work. Thank you."

"I called Dan to install an outlet and he also found other serious problems with my house electrical. I have a much older home and was in desperate need of some electrical fixes. Dan was so nice and professional and very knowledgeable. He took the time to check everything out and really cared that things be right and things be safe. His price was very reasonable and I would definitely call him again and refer him to anyone."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

GFCI outlets help prevent dangers from ground faults that can cause shocks. This is a different issue that a ground circuit can’t fully address. It’s best to use GFCI outlets combined with ground circuits for complete protection for you and your electronics.

Basic smart light switches are available for as little as $20. If you can install them yourself, it’s a home upgrade that won’t break the bank. Many homeowners view them as a worthwhile investment for the additional convenience and security they can offer. However, they are a little more tricky to install than standard light switches, so if you don’t have the electrical knowledge to do a DIY job, unless you need a lighting upgrade, remember these are a nice-to-have rather than a necessary purchase.

This type of conversion is easy—you’ll just need to upgrade to the correct amperage in your wires before wiring the new outlet. However, these projects can be tricky without intermediate electrical knowledge, so consider consulting a pro before flipping any switches on your circuit breaker.

If you strictly adhere to electrical safety rules, including assuming that a circuit is hot until proven otherwise, and have some knowledge of how an electrical circuit works, you can likely replace a light switch by yourself without too much trouble. However, it's always advisable to call a nearby electrical pro to do the job if you're unsure of any steps necessary to change a light switch. 

Yes, a leaking water heater can damage electrical work. Water can seep into electrical components, causing short circuits, tripped breakers, or even fires. The combination of water and electricity is quite hazardous, so it's crucial to address any leaks immediately to prevent electrical damage and ensure your home’s safety.
