"The problem turned out to be a burned out small electric door switch. I believe the price was way too expensive for the service performed and the price of the door switch. What more can I say? It got done."

"This company is obviously nationwide and hires local contractors.  I trusted Agies List that all contractors are licensed, bonded and have background checks.  This person was a handyman and not qualified to wall mount, conceal wires, add electrical outlet.  He  spend five hours in my home, for a job that should have taken two hours and left the area in a disaster.  The TV was hung close to the ceiling, the wires were hanging down from the TV, and the receiver was sitting on top of a plaster box because the cord was too short.  He was obviously not qualified to install TV wall mounts.  I have photos.    As soon as he left, I called Best Buy Geek Squad.  They were able to come out the next day and mount the TV professionally.  I have used the geek squad in Virginia and they are highly qualified.  They charge more than this nationwide company but you get what you pay for.  I called Angies List the day after the disaster and said i did not want to rate this company but I wanted to talk to a manager. No one called me to apologize. I have cancelled my membership.  Do not use this company unless you can be assured that the local contractor is qualified and is licensed.  You should never let anyone into your home that has not had background checks.

"I just pay $75 you never know who's going to come out. They do everything electrical. Just about everything is covered except the septic tank. I had an air conditioner replaced. It went great, all I had to do was pay for the freon. He didn't charge e more than what was needed."

"There were many things wrong in my computer (my fault and letting grandchildren on computer) Robert was so helpful, gave me many good instructions to keep everything safe, which I have written down, feel like I have a new computer. He was so excellent and experienced, took his time and was meticulous about what needed to be done. He was a pleasure to work with and I will use this company again! Linda Disy"

Electrical FAQs, answered by experts

Charles City’s harsh winters, severe storms, and humid summers require special attention to electrical projects. Underground wiring should be installed below the frost line, and all outdoor electrical components must be rated for extreme cold. Surge protection and proper grounding are essential due to frequent storms, while moisture-resistant materials help prevent issues from high humidity. Planning for these factors ensures dependable home wiring year-round.

Helpful?

In Charles City, residential electrical contractors handle home wiring, repairs, and upgrades, while commercial specialists manage larger business projects. Agricultural electricians focus on farm systems, including barns and irrigation. Generator installation experts are valuable for backup power needs, and smart home contractors offer automation solutions. Choosing the right electrical contractor ensures your project meets local needs and safety standards.

Helpful?

Hidden costs in Charles City electrical projects may include permit fees, relocating or upgrading outdated panels, and addressing asbestos or knob-and-tube wiring in older homes. Opening walls can reveal structural or grounding issues, while rural properties may require special equipment or longer delivery times. Weather delays are common, so building a contingency into your budget and bundling projects can help minimize surprises.

Helpful?

Schedule electrical projects in Charles City if you notice frequent breaker trips, flickering lights, burning odors from outlets, or sparking and non-functioning outlets. Homes with aluminum wiring or outdated panels should be inspected promptly. For major upgrades, plan work in spring or fall to avoid weather disruptions. Addressing these signs early helps protect your home and ensures safe, efficient electrical service.

Helpful?

As a new homeowner in Charles City, prioritize an electrical panel inspection and upgrade if needed. Replace outdated wiring, especially in older homes, and install GFCI outlets in kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoor areas to meet code. Add surge protection, upgrade smoke detectors, and weatherproof outdoor wiring. Inspect basement and crawl space wiring for moisture issues to ensure long-term safety and reliability.
