"Joe, the estimator was also the installer so there was no gap in communications between multiple people with the company and myself. Also the customer service follow up was great. Nikki was very polite and helpful in Energy Today winning the bid for all our electrical needs."

"Bolt Electric is a wonderful, professional, responsive, fair price company! You really couldn’t ask for a better company for electrical work! Called Bolt Electric number and thought I was calling a Clearwater location as I live in Seminole, FL, so I was surprised when I realized the electrician Zack had come from Sarasota, but I am within their service area. Zack said they work in Pinellas County all the time, very normal for them. Bolt Electric was great in all respect of scheduling and electrician was on time. Their pricing was better than the other two companies I requested quotes from and extreme professionalism when they came to my home. Greatly appreciated. Bolt was wonderful in sending electricians who put up with my year-old puppy who thought Zack was his new play toy and was very kind to put up with the puppy, while trying to preform electrical work. Only let puppy drive him crazy for a few minutes, but he was so kind to be so nice about Finn wanting to play with him. I don’t write a lot of reviews, because I don’t want to write something bad about a company. It seems so many want to hurt a company, when not necessary and I don’t write good ones unless company has been truly wonderful! Believe me Bolt Electric of Sarasota is a wonderful company because of their professionalism, expertise and great prices!"

"Garish was very responsible and knowledgeable. Always responded to my calls. He is really knowledgeable as an electrician. Did an excellent job with no complaints, specially working up on my clutter attic since Ian. We placed things up in the attic and have not organized it then. Garish is a really nice person too. He is was able to work with my budget, too. I am very thankful I found him. I won't request electrical services from another company, ever. Beech Electrical is the best!"

"We called NU Electric to switch out three light fixtures on the outside of our house, and Josh came over. He did an outstanding job, even taking care of some of the wiring that had to be re-worked and the price was fantastic! I’ll call NU Electric for any of my electrical needs from now on and I highly, highly recommend them."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Yes, standard dimmer switches should never be used to control a ceiling fan motor. They’re designed for lighting, not motors, and they can cause humming, overheating, or permanent damage. You should only use switches that are specifically labeled for fan speed control.

A faulty light switch can trip a breaker due to circuit overload or a short circuit. A faulty light switch may not always trip a breaker, so don’t use that as your only sign that something’s wrong. Always investigate the cause of a switch that isn’t working properly, feels hot to the touch, or is making unusual noises.

You can install a dimmer switch on almost any light as long as the switch, bulb, wiring, and wattage are compatible. Check what kind of light you have, the type of light bulb, and the total wattage of the bulbs to ensure your dimmer is a match. You’ll want to choose a non-neutral wire dimmer if you don't have neutral wiring. Homes built before 1985 that don't have updated electrical systems may not have neutral wiring.

Three-way switches work in pairs, allowing an operator to control a single light or series of lights from two separate switch locations. Most often, a three-way switch controls a light or light series in a single room.

They’ll use more electricity than the average upright vacuum, but not remarkably more. Most power units plug into a standard 120-volt outlet and don’t have significant power demands. You shouldn’t notice an increase in electricity bills. If you have any specific questions about energy costs, ask your installer as you examine purchase decisions. Larger power units will need more electricity for their suction levels.
