My house was built in 1968, and I had installed a 200 amp panel and photovoltaic (solar) system, but had done no other upgrades. The system was clearly inadequate for current technology, and far from meeting current codes. I had Accurate bid on both a complete rewire, and a major upgrade. They felt the major upgrade would meet my needs, would meet current codes, and it was considerably cheaper, so that is what I chose. The first thing they did was run new grounding wires throughout the system, and install new circuits where needed - in the kitchen, the office, one bathroom, and the garage. They installed a total of 27 LED recessed can lights in 3 rooms, a hallway, and a stairway. Where there were lots of lights, they added dimmer switches for better control of the amount of light - a nice touch that I had not considered. They put the light over the kitchen sink and the under-counter lights on separate switches, so there is very good control of which lights are in use. They removed all the old outlets, switches, and switch plates and replaced them all with new ones. They did a great job of hanging two chandeliers in the entry hall, which has a very high ceiling, and they were careful of the elevation at which the lights were hung, relative to the entry doors and over-door window. The upgraded the garage lighting, retrofitting one old fluorescent fixture to a new energy efficient T8, and installed two other T8 fluorescent fixtures near the work bench, one to provide general lighting and one as an under-shelf light directly over the work area. They created a new exterior outlet at my front porch, and upgraded the other two exterior outlets with rain-protective covers. They removed some odd old "accessories" that were no longer needed, like plugs for wall clocks. The installed new exterior lights at the back patio doors, and a new doorbell for the front door. And they installed ceilings lights in two bedrooms which previously had no "installed" lights. The house is so much more livable now, and I'm delighted to be able to see what I'm doing, in every room and hallway. Note that I purchased the light fixtures - pendant lights, ceiling lights, under-counter strips and chandeliers - and they provided all the recessed lights. The only thing that had to be re-done was the pendant lights in the kitchen, because the first ones I purchased would hold a standard base incandescent light, and even though I had CFL bulbs in them, the City of Long Beach inspector would only accept pendant lights that were LED or CFL-only, so we redid the pendants with LEDs. Following their work, I had the interior of the house painted. In that process, one light fixture was incorrectly re-installed by the painter and was not working. I also found one outlet that was not working. Accurate's supervisor who had done this job came back right away and made these two fixes at no charge. I am really impressed with how easy these people were to work with, and how good their work is. I enthusiastically recommend them.

I'm pretty sure he could have jerry rigged something that would have allowed him to make a sale, but left me with a less than ideal situation. He also explained what I would should look for when talking to others about the installation.
He suggested that, should I have any questions or concerns about other products, that I should feel free to call him for advice.
I would highly recommend calling Century Shower Doors (ask for Dave to do the estimate) before installing a shower door.

He came on time, with his equipment and friend to help. The original window was not installed correctly but Mike put in support and shims to creatively correct the situation. He was open to suggestions and thorough.
It is stunning. The installation took longer than anticipated, about a week longer. Part of this was due to removing the slate flooring.

FAQs for doorbell installation projects in Long Beach, CA
The average cost to hire a handyman ranges from about $40 to $140 per hour. Average project cost ranges between $180 and $700, but the cost per hour and per project depends heavily on the type, size, and complexity of the project. The pro’s experience level and your location also factor into how much a handyman charges per hour or per project. You can also expect to pay higher rates or additional fees for emergency services, or around periods of high customer demand, like holidays.
It’s important to ask an electrician a few questions before you commit to hiring them so you can make an informed decision as a consumer. If you’re getting estimates or considering hiring an electrician, ask them these questions:
Are you a full-time electrician?
Are you bonded, licensed, and insured?
What level of experience do you have as an electrician?
Can you please share three references?
Do you do residential or commercial electrical work?
What kinds of electrical work are you most familiar with?
Will any subcontractors be performing the work?
Are permits and inspections required?
Who is responsible for obtaining permits and inspections?
What is your schedule?
Do you offer a guarantee or warranty on your work?
Will you sign a do-not-exceed clause to keep the job within the budget?
Yes, you should get a quote or an estimate from an electrician. Most electricians offer free estimates or quotes. When getting quotes, do your research and verify each electrician’s license. Get quotes from three different electricians to compare. If the prices or items listed appear different on the quotes, ask the electrician to clarify. Learning as much as you can about the electrical work you want done will help you get the most accurate estimate.
Qualified, licensed electricians will charge from $50 to $100 per hour. The cost to hire an electrician 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’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.
Yes, you should hire a handyman who’s licensed, certified, and insured, if possible. States have different requirements for handyman licensing, registration, and certifications. If licensing is required in your area, you may pay more for a licensed handyman with experience than one who is not licensed or certified, but you’re likely to get a better end result for your project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local handymen guidelines.
