"John was professional and thorough. He returned my interest call promptly and came by the next day to do an estimate on outlets for a bathroom and kitchen appliance. On the day of the job, he spent the time to do the job correctly. In researching his fees, I found him fair and competitive with the local market. I am extremely pleased with the quality workmanship on my project. I would highly recommend Abbott Electric, LLC."

"Jonathan installed my Emporia Pro charger in my garage, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the very beginning, he was quick to respond, offered a fair price, and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. He was punctual, professional, and kept me informed every step of the way. As someone who is new to EVs and home charging requirements, I had a lot of questions. Jonathan patiently answered every one of them and explained everything in terms that were easy to understand. His knowledge, attention to detail, and excellent customer service gave me complete confidence that the job was being done right. The installation turned out great, and I have absolutely no regrets choosing him for this project. I highly recommend Jonathan to anyone looking for EV charger installation or electrical work. I will definitely be calling him again for future projects!"

"Updating this Zinsco electrical panel has been our top priority. Our home inspector warned that the outdated brand has become obsolete and creates a great risk to homeowners due to their faulty circuit breakers. This meant that if our circuit was overloaded or short, the breaker wouldn’t trip, and we would be tackling an electrical fire. We are so grateful to Elias Sugui (@certified_electrical_services) for taking on this project with ease. His calm demeanor and obvious expertise settled our nerves. From inquiry to execution, Elias provided exceptional service and professionalism. We’ll be sleeping much better knowing the job was done by him. We highly recommend reaching out to them for any and all of your electrical needs!"

"Dick and Dave reviewed my plans to install a level 2 electric vehicle car charger in my garage, which included a full rewiring of the entire garage, and installation of a new 20 breaker 200 amp subpanel. Dick was very responsive and was helpful with researching the project design prior to pulling the city permit. Dick provided the written estimate at a reasonable price. They started work immediately once I approved the project. Dick and Dave were very prompt and professional with this installation. I will highly recommend Aloha Solar and Electrical to my friends and family. Mahalo Dick for all your help on my project."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

While you can technically live in a home while it's being rewired, prepare for some debris and dust if your electrical contractor needs to remove parts of walls, floors, and ceilings to access wires. If you stay home during the project, ask your electrician to cut the power supply to all exposed electrical wires to keep your family safe.

No, it doesn’t matter which of the two wires goes on each of the two switch terminals. Just be sure to put the ground wire in the correct terminal. The ground wire is either green, bare copper, or green with a yellow stripe. The other wires are hot wires and are typically black. They can be used interchangeably.

Multiple wire sizes are used for residential electrical purposes. While the most common sizes used in homes are 14 and 12 gauge, some appliances, such as stoves, electric water heaters, central air units, etc., may use larger gauge wire to accommodate their larger amperage. Typically, larger appliances require 10-, 8-, or 6-gauge wires.

An electrician can handle wiring issues with the garage door opener, like faulty connections, circuit problems, or sensor malfunctions, but they’re not the right person to hire for mechanical repairs. Garage door specialists handle things like broken springs, tracks, and panels, while electricians step in if there’s an issue with power supply, motor function, or safety sensors that aren’t responding correctly.

Yes, electricians must be licensed, certified, and in most cases, insured. Licensing requirements vary by state and local municipality, but most U.S. municipalities require electricians to hold an electrical contractor’s license. It's always a good practice to confirm requirements with your local municipality. Even if licensing is not required in your area, hiring a licensed and experienced electrician often leads to a better end result.

A license is a legal requirement to operate a business and is necessary for pulling project permits. Certifications, on the other hand, are typically voluntary and demonstrate a certain level of expertise. In some cases, a certified electrician may send an apprentice or journeyman to perform the work, but they must operate under a primary electrician who holds the proper license.

Before hiring, you should verify the electrician's license, insurance coverage, and any third-party certifications. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing search to confirm a pro's license status. Additionally, businesses with the “Angi Approved” badge on our platform meet strict criteria, including having the required state and local licenses, passing a background check, and maintaining a high average rating.
