"I went with Home Depot home Services for my Needs. its a bit more expensive. but have extra safety of home Depot backing the service.
I had a problem with overload outlet and Microwave blowing the fuse. so called them for an initial inspection and to get an estimate on what it would take to replace the panel and possible rewire the kitchen because of the Microwave blowing out the fuse.
He recommend to use another outlet which was on a different circuit that was higher rated and that could take the load.
He did recommend changing out the panel as the panel was older. Also was reported to have caused some fires in other states so due to the age and concerns I had; I went ahead and agreed to changing out the panel and he gave me a verbal estimated of 2100. with a written one being done later and sent thru email.
I had a number of other projects being done in the next few weeks, Windows and Roof replacement so had to wait for the other projects to be completed on my home.
I schedule the panel install and Jim came out and did the work in 1 day.
I am recommending Jim he is Professional; easy to talk to and just a nice guy. He explained everything and when he was finished he even helped me an outlet I had issue with at no charge.
Great service great Company.

"Generx Generators was outstanding in communication and installation of our home standby generator. Their professionalism far exceeds, not only their line of work, but most other contractors as well. They take care of everything from start to finish. Without hesitation, I recommend them to anyone looking to add a generator to their home. They are truly the best at what they do."

"Actually, Power and Control Installations did much more than install electrical switches, outlets and fixtures. They installed a new 20 amp breaker, and ran wiring 60 feet underground to my new shed. The electrician they sent out was very professional, courteous, and answered all my questions. The work was completed to my satisfaction. I would highly recommend this company to others."

"Had a breaker replaced for my pool heater in JUL17. During Labor Day Holiday in 2017 I noticed the smell of melted plastic coming from the panel. I called the previous company on their work and emergency number but no reply until Tuesday morning after the holiday. I called All American Electrical on Sunday of the holiday weekend and Erica scheduled the technician to come out that Tuesday. He found arcing in the breaker and documented everything to provide to previous company. The previous company refunded the full amount thanks to the inputs from All American Repair FYI. The technician didn't have the breaker on hand but they rescheduled for Friday of the same week. This week to the weekend prior to Hurricane Irma hitting the area. I had a dated generator connection in the garage as well and I had just purchased a generator for the pending hurricane. Erica received texts and information for the generator connection and got everything they needed to update the generator connection and repair the pool heater breaker the same day. The technicians went over the generator connections and told me how to work everything. Erica even provided their home number in case we had issues working the generator. The power did go out due to the Hurricane and the generator and connection worked with not issues along with the pool heater breaker. They did a great job and would recommend for anyone needed electrical work."

"Very Good. Shane was right on designated time and completed the install in excellent time. Put all the removed fan parts in box received with new fan (same model) for roadside pickup. Sweep up all debris dropped on patio. Very reasonable price and will use again shortly for installation of outside lights at garage door. Have used this business in the past. Highly recommend Destiny Electric for any electrical work. No one better."

"The whole experience from start to finish rates a 5, I would go higher if I could. Dexter returned my call right a way and scheduled a time to come by. (Not a time frame) on arrival he was very courteous and professional. Went the extra mile to make sure that fan was installed properly. Once done I was asking some questions about changing some light fixtures and replacing a exhaust fan in the bathroom in the near future, he checked out the fan and got it running before he left. Great guy I will definitely be calling him back in the future and will recommend him to our friends.."

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?
Tipping an electrician is not a requirement nor is it expected, as they build a fair wage into the price of the job. It’s up to your discretion. There are no set rules for tipping electricians, but if they did a great job and you’re so inclined to tip 10% to 15%, it will likely be received with thanks.
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, although there are different types of electricians, they must be licensed, certified, and in most cases insured. States have different requirements for electrician licensing and certifications. In some cases, there may be licensing requirements at the local level, but not the state level. It’s always a good practice to confirm requirements with your local municipality. If licensing is not required in your area, you may pay more for a licensed electrician with experience than one who is not licensed or certified, but you’re likely to get a better end result for your project.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:

Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
