"Mike was amazing. Communication was awesome. He gave me an estimate after reviewing the issue. Once approved he went to work, went to the store to get a replacement and was back to finish the job in no time. Mike is very friendly and easy to talk to. If you need something done well and quick definitely choose Speedy Electric. Will absolutely hire again!"

"Cris Electric is awesome. Proficient, knowledgeable and efficient. I learned so much in a short time about my home electrical wiring. I thought about the headache trying to understand why my circuit had not tripped but lights were inoperable in some parts of the house. By process of elimination Cris Electric found the source of my electrical problem. I am forever thankful to him for his professionalism and expertise."

"Istalled light switch; 2 electrical outlets and troubleshoot and fix bad existing outlet and lights. Quality work performed to my satisfaction. They diplayed a high level of knowledge and experience for the work in which they performed. They showed up on time, explained what was needed and cleaned up after themselves. And the cost is very reasonable."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

You should not attempt to disable a smoke alarm unless you’ve already activated a replacement unit. To stop a hardwired smoke alarm from beeping, reset the device or silence the alarm. If you’re removing a hardwired alarm, shut off the power, turn the unit counterclockwise to remove it from the ceiling, and disconnect the wiring.

Yes, it's possible to have electrical receptacles and overhead lights on the same circuit. The reason is that lights typically use much less power than large appliances, so combining them won't overload your circuit. By doing this, you can distribute the power consumption throughout the breakers in your panel more efficiently, which can be helpful if you have a lot of different electrical devices in your home.

A voltmeter measures the voltage of AC or DC electrical current. Unlike a multimeter, measuring voltage is a voltmeter’s only function. Voltage is the potential difference between two points within a circuit. Measuring voltage with a voltmeter can help identify wiring issues or determine whether a battery is dead.

Durations range from an hour for simple jobs to full workdays for significant upgrades.

Outlets do wear out, usually within 15-25 years, but they can fail even sooner than that —sometimes in a matter of years. If your plugs always slide out after you put them in, this is a sign your outlets need to be replaced. Additionally, if your outlets are damaged, cracked, discolored, or regularly tripping the circuit breaker, they may be at the end of their life.
