"I had a bathroom remodeled. The project started as a disaster. I had fired 2 contractors, lost money and time and really did not know where else to turn to. I was suggested to try Angie list, and so I did. I got in contact with Mr. Mc Caffrey, I did not have much faith however he surpassed and exceeded all my expectations. He was on time and showed up for work each single day he promised he would. The price was competitive and the bathroom was done in 10 days. The job included a jet tub,installation,plumbing, carpentry, electrical and tile work. I am greatly appreciative and will recommend Mr. Mc Caffrey at any time."

"Ask yourself, do you have the right people on your bus? As a developer, we constantly have to comb through our vetted subs list to find partners that help bring our game to the next level. Before selecting any sub we look back and check our records; Which ones kept a safe and clean job site, were they on time and on budget, were there any call backs, how did they handle change orders, did they exceed expectation? time and time again Dan and his team has been identified as a must have partner on the bus! The care, the drive, the passion in how the work is executed is a breath of fresh air. We HIGHLY recommend Dan and his team for your next electrical job!!!"

"Dave, was professional and reliable. He did the job very well and returned when we had questions and resolved them. We upgraded our service from 100 to 200 amp electrical service. We also installed a charging port for our new electric car. We are very satisfied with the new service and charge station. I would highly recommend him to others."

"Alan is very professional, knowledgeable, and patient. I am the type of person who asks a lot of questions, Alan took the time to fully answer each of my questions without rushing, I really appreciated that. I contacted several electricians and he was first to come to my house to review the project and provide me with a price on the complete project. Another electrician, once he found out it was a detached garage, told me he would not do the trench work, and I would have to find someone else to do it. I told him not to both giving me a price. The trench work tuned out to be the hardest part of the job. In trenching to the garage, a massive root was uncovered; Alan handled it very professionally and did the necessary work to properly install the wire. I would defiantly recommend him he did the complete job, pulling permits, having the work inspected, the total installation and cleanup. I think you would be happy with his work."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Although homeowners can turn off a breaker, it’s vital to follow safety precautions when doing so to prevent serious and potentially fatal injuries. For instance, you want to ensure there is no water on the floor when you touch the breaker and wear protective gear such as safety glasses. Anytime you deal with anything electrical, it’s always best to be as safe as possible.

While most electrical items can be plugged into a GFCI outlet, some appliances with internal or stationary motors, such as refrigerators, vent fans, and fluorescent lighting, can cause nuisance tripping. This happens because they experience a small, normal amount of current leakage, which can cause the GFCI to trip even when the appliance is working correctly. Although this is not a safety hazard, it can be inconvenient and may cause the GFCI outlet to wear out faster. For this reason, it is often better to plug these types of appliances into a standard outlet. Additionally, electrical circuits over 100 feet long can sometimes cause tripping. Some appliances, like hair dryers, have their own built-in GFCI protection, so connecting them to a standard outlet is fine.

To determine if an electrical outlet is blown, look for visible signs of damage such as a burning or smoky smell, burn marks, or a melted or discolored plastic cover. If you notice a burning smell, contact an electrician immediately. Other signs include a plug that keeps falling out or the outlet not working when you test it with different devices. For further troubleshooting, you can use a voltage tester or multimeter to check for power; a reading of zero indicates a problem. Also, check your circuit breaker or fuse box to see if the circuit was tripped and reset it if necessary. If these steps don't resolve the issue, the outlet may need to be replaced.

A two-way switch is also called a single-pole or single-throw switch. These switches only have an on-and-off function and only control a single light or series of lights wired together. A three-way switch has no “on” or "off” position and works with a second switch in the circuit to control a single light or light series from two locations.

Whether you need electrical upgrades depends on the electronics your game room includes. If your game room will have high-powered electronics, arcade machines, or a home theater, you may need to upgrade your electrical panel or add dedicated circuits. An electrician can assess your current system and provide an estimate for any necessary upgrades.
