"Garafano Electric has being taking care of all the electrical needs and upgrades in our 90 plus year old house for a few years now. They always do A+ work. We're currently in the middle of some home renovations and they've been willing and able to work with our erratic schedule. Honest, dependable, and great at what they do. Can't recommend them high enough!"

"Over the past month Eric has added a sub panel to bring 240 into the room for an electric tankless water heater, and just today added 4 recessed lights for our living room. I honestly did not know how he could add the recessed lights as the attic is very narrow and filled with insulation. The 240 install was also difficult. Not for Eric! He is a great problem solver and finds a way to get it done. Eric combines many years of experience, with high ethical standards, and fair pricing!"

"Paul from Fairway Electric responded promptly with a good quote and even scheduled the work to be performed on Saturday morning so I would not have to take off work. I had 3 light fixtures replaced. The electrician Chris was great, efficient, and professional. Excellent customer service from Fairway Electric. I would highly recommend them if you need assistance with electrical work. Thanks Fairway Electric"

"Electricity was needed for a new control panel for my backyard sprinklers, and I needed a couple of light fixtures replaced in my house. The gentleman showed up on-time and quickly took care of everything in three hours, which included making a run to the hardware store for a part. The price was very reasonable since I used the promotion on Angie's List. Moving forward, they will be the first people I call for electrical work."

"Tim Gephart has been my "go to" electrician since I first hired him through Home Advisor over a year ago. A true professional and gentleman. He has done many projects for me including new outlets, installing lighting and replacing an entire electrical panel. Each and every project was done with care and the highest level of skill. He is an expert electrician."

"I completely recommend Electric Zone--Definitely earned five stars. They are awesome, very professional and extremely reasonable. I am thrilled with the work they did upgrading and repairing my electric panel and installing my Tesla 14-50 charge station for 50 amps. I have, in the past had bad luck with electricians. That has now changed and I will be recommending and using Electric Zone whenever I have a need for an electrician."

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had an outstanding experience with Wilsons Electric. Their team was professional, punctual, and completed all of the work with exceptional quality and attention to detail. They installed a dedicated outlet for our carpet cutting machine, new light fixtures in our electrical room, and an additional power outlet in our lobby. From start to finish, communication was excellent, the work area was kept clean, and everything was completed safely and efficiently. It's refreshing to work with a contractor that takes pride in their craftsmanship and delivers exactly what they promise. I highly recommend Wilsons Electric for any commercial or residential electrical needs. We'll definitely be using them again for future projects."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The most common gauge for indoor outlets around your home is 12- and 14-gauge wires. But if you’re working with larger appliances like ovens, washing machines, or dryers (all of which require more amplitude), you might find 10-, eight-, or six-gauge wires to help support those hefty appliances.

Yes, it's possible to have electrical receptacles and overhead lights on the same circuit. The reason is that lights typically use much less power than large appliances, so combining them won't overload your circuit. By doing this, you can distribute the power consumption throughout the breakers in your panel more efficiently, which can be helpful if you have a lot of different electrical devices in your home.

Yes, many remodels include electrical upgrades for lighting, outlets, or charging stations. Confirm with your contractor.

Unless you’re a licensed electrician with extensive experience in upgrading electric panels, you must hire a professional for any electrical work. A licensed electrician will make sure your breaker is upgraded safely and in compliance with local codes. Your pro will also take care of any permits and inspections that are needed.

Regular inspections, avoiding circuit overloads, and updating wiring when needed help maintain efficiency.
