"We had a separate outlet installed for a freezer. Precise Electric did an excellent job finding a straightforward path from the electrical panel to the location for the new outlet with minimal damage to our home. We also really appreciated their flexibility to complete the installation quickly. We would highly recommend them."
"An impressive company. Peter really pulled thru for us in a time constrained situation. This is a very honest company. In the process of selling our house, we thought we needed a new electrical panel. Peter told us "no". He could correct the panel and then connect the new electric water heater. His men Sergi and David worked diligently until they were finished. Regional inspection passed like a breeze. I would hire this company again in a heartbeat. They are honest, professional, polite, experienced electricians, and the price was very fair for the work performed."
"UpGrade Electric did a fantastic job. We upgraded the main panel from 150A to 200A, installed a subpanel and added 7 electrical base heaters. Minimal damage to drywall. Very skillful and highly recommended."
We pride our company on reliability, great communication, integrity, and quality work. We strongly believe in giving our absolute best in all of our projects no matter how big or small. We are experts in our trade and will always keep you educated on your particular task or project. We look forward to earning your business!
"Jesse reviewed the circuit breaker issue that I was having. He fully understood the problem and let me know what the options were. He advised me that it was something that I could do myself, but I chose to have him do it, as he offered a very reasonable price and I felt I'd rather have a professional do the job. He was most pleasant to work with. I will keep his info in case I have any other electrical problems in the future. I recommend Persistence Electric to anyone having electrical problems."
"True professional! Came out to give me a bid the same day and performed the work the following Monday morning. Actual cost was less than the original bid. I will recommend SGS to anyone that needs electrical work."
"I posted on Nextdoor in the Banning Lewis Ranch community looking for help with a light fixture repair, and Andrew from C2 Electrical Solutions responded. He was professional, friendly, and did outstanding work. He quickly fixed the issue, and I’m extremely pleased with both the quality of the repair and his customer service. I highly recommend reaching out to him if you need any electrical work done."
"I spent 40 years in the construction industry as a general contractor. I'd rate American Electric among the top 5 electrical companies I've ever worked with. Professional service, extensive knowledge of the trade and current codes, and real value for service. I'd hire them again in a heartbeat."
"I hired Adam to install a light fixture to go over my pool table. I should mention that Adam is a Master Electrician. He does EXCELLENT work at a very reasonable price!!! I used to use bigger contractors to do all my electrical work [usually an apprentice was sent out]. Adam did a fantastic job. I will use only Adam for all my electrical work from now on. He is very professional and honest. I would highly recommend him to anyone who asks me. The fact that Adam is a Master Electrician and does the work made me feel very comfortable that the job would be done right. He is a 10 out of 10 in my opinion!"
When removing an old security alarm system, you likely won't need to remove any of the wiring. Wiring can either be left in place for a replacement system or capped off for safety and pushed into the wall. If you're uncomfortable with the wiring, or if it's badly damaged, contact a professional electrician for assistance with safe removal.
Thankfully, LED lights use less electricity than incandescent lights, meaning you won’t spend as much on utility bills by using these light strips. Each 5-meter LED light strip will cost about $3 per year on your energy bill.
The safest way to pull an electrical cord from the wall outlet is by gently but firmly grabbing the plug and pulling it out. Pulling on the cord instead of the plug can cause damage to the cord, leading to an increased risk of electrical problems like fire or electric shock. If you notice damaged wiring on an appliance or device, it’s best to stop using it immediately.
Yes, the National Electric Code (NEC) requires at least one GFCI outlet in each sectioned-off portion of an unfinished basement, partly to ensure a power source is available for a sump pump in case of flooding. If you install multiple outlets in your unfinished basement, all of them must be GFCI-protected. For finished basements, standard outlets are generally permitted, but at least one GFCI outlet is still required per circuit. Keep in mind that local municipalities may have additional codes, so it's best to consult a licensed electrician to ensure your home is fully compliant.
Yes, hot tubs can use a significant amount of electricity, primarily to keep the water heated. A typical hot tub uses between 1,500 and 6,000 watts, and the pump can add another 1,500 watts. This usage can result in a monthly cost of around $20 to $30. The exact amount of electricity consumed depends on several factors, including the hot tub's age, size, heater voltage (120V vs. 240V), usage habits, and thermostat setting. Newer, energy-efficient models generally use less power than older ones. To reduce electricity costs, consider investing in an energy-efficient model, using a quality insulated cover with a thermal blanket, and keeping the filters clean.
