"recently hired Bright Room Electric for some electrical work in my home, and I couldn?t be more impressed. From the first phone call to the final walkthrough, their professionalism and attention to detail stood out. The electricians arrived on time, explained the work clearly, and completed everything efficiently and safely. They were respectful of my home, cleaned up after themselves, and made sure I was completely satisfied with the results. It?s rare to find a company that combines skill, reliability, and great customer service?but Bright Room Electric delivered on all fronts. I?ll definitely be calling them again for any future electrical needs and highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch service."

"Joe was a great help with our electrical projects. We had several smaller projects that we needed done in our new house. He recommended some ways to simplify our projects, quoted a reasonable cost, and performed great work. He even did a great job cleaning up after finishing. I would highly recommend him for your project!"

"For months my electricity in my apartment was acting crazy. It was like power surges constantly. Gary came out and was extremely professional and not intimidating whatsoever. Turned out it was just normal wear and tear that loosened connections. I would definitely choose SS&E Electric next time and will refer him to others!!!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

No. When applied properly, electrical tape is designed to be an insulating material with high resistance to electricity. It can reinforce electrical connections and act as a safeguard to help ensure the electrical current stays within its designated pathways. However, it’s important to note that it can break down over time and you should never use it as a replacement for electrical wire caps.

The National Electrical Codebook indicates that there should be at least 6 inches of wiring in the breaker box for connecting purposes. When in doubt, err on the side more, because you can always cut some wire off but you can never add it back on, and if you don’t have enough you may struggle to finish wiring your breaker box properly.

Provided you leave the switch in the off position, your broken bulb shouldn’t be drawing any power. However, there’s always the risk that the switch is turned on by accident, potentially causing electrical damage or even a fire. Plus, broken glass in the home is never ideal. For safety, it’s a good idea to remove broken bulbs as soon as possible. If you’re in doubt, a local lighting professional can help you remove the bulb safely and quickly.

To check if doorbell wires are live, use a non-contact voltage tester. Hold the tester near the wires; if it lights up or beeps, the wires are live. Always ensure the power is off at the breaker box before handling any wiring. If you don't have a voltage tester, consider getting one or consulting a professional to ensure safety.

The best place to put an electrical outlet depends on your needs. A good rule of thumb is to install outlets every 6 feet in large rooms. Hallways over 10 feet long need one electrical outlet minimum. 

If you find yourself needing extra plug-ins for all of your gadgets, you may want to increase the number of electrical outlets in your room. When adding outlets, keep in mind that older homes could have outdated electrical panels. In these cases, you may need a pro to upgrade you from 100-amp to 200-amp service before increasing the power load.
