Thomas was amazing. He had ceiling fan wired and completed in less time than I had planned. Definitely kept them in my contact list for next time."

"I have had a huge issue for 6 issues at my rental property...Several electricians came out, and could not find it, but Isaiah did...So the issue was a crazy voltage drop on all my circuits when I ran the washing machine. It turns out that when the place was built, multiple sizes of gauge wire were used, and a thin wire created a voltage drop. I can not say thank you enough for actually figuring it out. Isaiah also dropped the bill down to half price because I'm a brokie. Thank you so much."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The size of your home will help determine the size of your electrical panel. Usually, the decision comes down to a 100-amp electrical panel versus a 200-amp panel. Smaller homes, especially those without an HVAC system, may be able to get by with a 100-amp panel. 

If you have a larger home or need to power AC, a 200-amp panel should be the best fit. It’s unlikely that you’ll need a larger panel than that unless you have a larger home or unique electrical needs, but an electrician can help you make the final call.

Hiring a professional for attic fan installation or replacement is highly recommended to ensure safety, proper ventilation, and effectiveness without damaging your roof. The type of professional needed can vary based on the fan type and project specifics.

  • HVAC Technicians: They understand airflow and ventilation principles, making them well-suited for the job.

  • Roofers: Experienced roofers are ideal for roof-mounted fans, as they can ensure a watertight installation.

  • Electricians: A licensed electrician is essential if new wiring is needed, or for replacing solar or electric attic fans to safely handle the electrical connections.

  • Carpenters: They may be needed to install gable vent fans or to ensure a new fan fits the existing structure correctly.

  • Handyperson: For a simple replacement of an old fan with no wiring or structural modifications, a handyperson might be an option.

It depends on where you live. Some cities may require a permit for electrical work, while others don’t. You’ll need to call your city’s building department to determine if you’ll need to apply for a permit or not. If a permit is required, you’ll likely have to pay a fee for it. 

Wiring an outlet can be done safely by someone with the proper knowledge and tools, but it can also be dangerous if not done correctly. If you're not comfortable working with electrical systems, it's best to hire a licensed electrician to do the job for you. That way, you can rest assured that your outlet will be rewired safely and quickly. 

Before the widespread use of PVC, affixing a ground wire to plumbing pipes was generally considered to be an acceptable workaround. Nowadays, not so much. There are plenty of nonmetallic water pipes and fittings out there, so any ground previously provided by the metallic piping would be interrupted in these cases, which is dangerous.
