"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!!!"

"Charles was on time and addressed the issue by rewiring and relocating the outlet. I showed Charles another issue I had with multiple problems that he addressed and repaired better than I thought possible. I was so impressed with his work that I will have him do some more work for me next week. Adding his honesty and attention to detail, I would definitely recommend this electrician if your considering having work done at your home. I was also struck by his honesty. Had an electrician out here last year who said I should replace the housing for the electrical meter to the tune of $1500 plus. I held off hoping to get a better price. When Charles inspected it, he said it was fine and really didn't need to be replaced. So too sumit all up"

"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."

"Great guy, fantastic work at a very fair price. Preston went above and beyond what was required in all phases. Preston did all the electrical, new panel, lighting, etc. for my basement refinishing. Ultra responsible, on time and honest. He keeps you informed and in the loop along the way which is important for larger projects like mine. I promise you will not be disappointed in hiring Preston for any of your electrical work. He's now my go-to guy for anything electrical."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Poorly designed and incorrectly installed outlets can create an electrical fire hazard, as do some phone chargers and adapters that plug into these outlets. However, most outlets are perfectly safe as long as they remain in working condition. Keep an eye on what you are plugging into the outlet and stay alert for signs of outlet malfunction, like sparks, burning smell, or frequent circuit tripping.

The cost to upgrade an electrical panel ranges from $1,200 to $2,000, depending on the type of electrical panel you need and the size of your home. Amperage plays a central role in determining the cost, so calculate your home’s electrical load before purchasing. For example, a 100-amp and 400-amp panel vary widely in cost. 

The standard copper wire gauge to use with any 30-amp circuit is a 10-gauge wire. The National Electric Code specifies a 10-gauge wire with appliances like water heaters running on 30 amps. If you try to use a smaller gauge wire, such as a 12 gauge, with a 30-amp breaker, you run the risk of the wire overheating and melting or causing a fire. Because of the safety hazards, the gauge of the wire is not an area to try to cut costs when connecting a 30-amp breaker to a water heater.

The most common reason a GFCI outlet would trip even when nothing is plugged in is if there’s a problem at the circuit breaker end. This could be an overloaded circuit, with too many appliances plugged into it, or another type of fault. If a GFCI outlet keeps tripping, it can also be because it is faulty and needs replacing.

You can make a pigtail with either thermoplastic high-heat-resistant nylon-coated (THHN) wire or non-metallic (NM) cable, often referred to as “Romex.” Each pigtail requires a neutral wire, a ground wire, and a live wire. The gauge of your pigtail wires must match the gauge of those on the device.
