"This review is in reference to Job: 559197 Patrikios Papasavas, an electrician with Mister Sparky arrived on the scene and I explained to him that my pool electrical panel had tripped a breaker and would not reset. He said the Standard Repair & Troubleshooting Diagnostic: fee is $306.75 my gut feeling was to cancel but I did not. He went to the house panel and shut off the breaker to the pool pump. I have an older Gould panel without a main breaker feeding a sub-panel; he said he found the bus bars in the main panel burning. I think he meant to say there was some previous arching, but I could be wrong. He opened up the sub panel and said he found the breaker for the pool pump. This breaker was arcing. He turned it off and removed the breaker and found the bus bars burning as well. He said these panels are electrical hazards and must be replaced. The only options were to address these hazards and replace the home master panel. I am no electrician but If a breaker is going bad and yes breakers do go bad and yes I can go to any hardware or electric store and purchase a 30 amp dual breaker. That option was not even suggested, replacing the breaker that was arching and buzzing. Below were the options. Option 1: -Replace burned electrical panels with 1 200 amp main breaker CH-series panel -Update grounding per code -Install surge protection on panel -Run new 240v 30 amp circuit with the insulated ground for pool panel -Pull permit Cost $5,412.75 Option 2: -Replace burned electrical panels with 1 200 amp main breaker CH-series panel -Update grounding per code -Install surge protection on panel -Pull permit Cost # $4,628.75 Option 3: -Replace burned electrical panels with 1 200 amp main breaker CH-series panel -Update grounding per code -Pull permit Cost $3,987.75 He then asked me what option I wanted and they would start the job immediately. I asked him to email me the quotes and he asked why since all in need to do is decide on one and he would get started. I told him that I would have to collect three quotes since this was an expensive project, Mr. Papasavas then asked me what I valued more, safety or money. I looked at him and said they are both equal at those prices, and of course, he did not want to hear that. He then said ok I need to collect $306.75, I made the comment that you have only been here 55 minutes, that’s one **** of an hourly fee. He said he was a Master Electrician, and that is what Mister Sparky charges. He left my home without cleaning up, After he left I noticed he left behind his ladder in the garage, he called me back and asked if he could swing by and pick it up. I of course said yes. He also left behind his floor savers a pair of really nice shoes that he did not return to get. I wonder if I will get a refund since the invoice states: 100% Satisfaction Guarantees Service & Repair Guarantee If you are not 100% satisfied with the service we have provided, we will refund all of your money. If our electricians smoke or swear in your home; are not drug-free; do not wear floor savers or leave your home without cleaning up, you do not pay for the service. I will leave the shoes in my entryway of the house, please ask him to stop by and pick them up. I contacted another reputable electrician and he said I could replace the panels or just the 30 amp double breaker since it was bad. I chose to change the breaker, myself. The cost was $11.00 to buy a matching breaker. I reconnected the saltwater pool panel and switched on the breaker and now the pool pump works and the Saltwater pool system also works beautifully. As they say, buyer beware!"

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:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
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
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
