My name is Beth Finlayson and I am the owner of this electrical business. I run a small business out of Woburn MA and have been in the trade for over a decade now. My company always strives to be prompt, professional, and yet still maintain reasonable rates.

"Beth did a great job installing new motion sensor lights on my property. Her customer service and communication was excellent. We arranged the entire job via text and email. She was very responsive to my questions and gave great advise. I will hire her again the next time I need a licensed electrician."

Amaral industries is a small owner-run business, established in 1997. We pride ourselves on old-world craftsmanship, outstanding customer service, and value. Eduardo is the owner of the company and head blacksmith, working with each client personally, and overseeing all aspects of the job. He holds a BFA in sculpture, is the son of an architect, and grandson of a blacksmith. All our work is designed & fabricated at our shop in Bellingham, and installed with care & precision. Initial visit to your home or business, and estimate are free. Extensive design work requires a $250 deposit, which is non-refundable. The fee is deducted from the final cost of the work. We are fully insured. Will also serve the Cape Cod area. Award winning.

"We recently had our front walkway and stairs upgraded. The old stair railings needed to be replaced. Based upon a recommendation from our landscape designer we hired Amaral Industries to do the job. Eduardo Amaral discussed the project with me before fabrication took place. Eduardo and his extremely talented assistant Jayden did an amazing job fabricating and installing the railings. I highly recommend Amaral Industries for your decorative ironwork desires!"

"This is the second time we hired Mike. Our projects were having our fieldstone basement repointed, adding a small piece to our existing fence to our garage, and adding paving stones behind the garage. While he was here, we showed him another project we were considering, and he was able to fit that in the following week. The second project was cleaning out the attic of the garage, removing the floorboards and installing a new 4-foot shelf in the attic ceiling, painting the interior, and installing 3 new windows. Mike is truly a jack of all trades! All the projects above came out great and we were very thankful to have his guidance as things went along. He provided a quote for the job, was communicative, and arrived in a timely manner. He cleaned up after very well after each day and he explains his process, problems, and solutions as he goes so, I always felt informed of what was going on. I would definitely recommend and hire Mike again for future jobs."

Lighting questions, answered by experts

Although security lighting may not deter a determined burglar, its presence will make your property that much less enticing to would-be trespassers. When paired with other types of home security systems like alarms and surveillance cameras, strong lights will better help you and the authorities identify thieves in the instance they attempt to break in or succeed at doing so. 

It’s not illegal to fly an American flag at night without a light shining on it, but the U.S. Flag Code notes that it’s respectful to provide illumination. Installing a flagpole light is also common practice and will add more to your home’s curb appeal at night. Choosing a solar-powered or battery-powered light for your flag is an affordable way to provide illumination.

The easiest and best way to power your outdoor lights is with the use of outdoor outlets. Most building codes now require exterior outlets in homes, so you likely already have outdoor outlets available to plug into. However, you can have these outlets installed if your space doesn’t currently include them.

Your maintenance needs revolve around the type of foundation you choose, as well as how you furnish or decorate it. Patios require little else other than the occasional hose-down, but decks and other wooden structures will require annual power washing and sealing. You may also need to restain the wood every two to three years.

Adding a solid roof rather than building a pergola or leaving the space open will make maintenance much easier. Without a roof, you will need to spend more time sweeping, washing, and covering your furniture to protect it from UV bleaching.

In most cases, general electricians and lamp repair specialists can repair lamps, although it’s usually best to hire a lamp repair specialist. Many electricians won’t offer lamp repair services, as the jobs are usually small, and some lamps require dedicated lamp repair expertise that electricians may not have. A dedicated lamp repair technician is also a better option because they will be familiar with different types of fixtures, including antique lamps, and can provide a more dedicated service.
