"Joe is a very talented electrician that will do a great job. He installed my Tesla EV charger in less than 2 hours and with an amazing finish. I love it. I recommend Joe 100%."
"George came to price an outlet installation for my new washer. He was so direct and honest and reasonable that I hired him to do it on the spot. Two weeks later the light in my bathroom ceiling fan went out. I called him to come out and instead he diagnosed the problem (correctly) through text and led me through some simple steps to fix it. If I could cook like my mother I would have baked him a pie. Instead I'm writing this review so that everyone knows what a great electrician and person George is."
"Top notch. Paul did a great job installing an EV charger in my garage. He was very friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. He provided me a competitive estimate for the job but I was amazed when he actually charged me less because he said it took him less time then he had originally planned to complete the work. I highly recommend Paul"
"We have an older house (built ~1930) with largely original wiring and lathe and plaster walls. In other words a challenge when doing electrical or plumbing work. VMA Electric bid the job out carefully and coped with calm and competence with the inevitable difficulties (some incompatibilities between the main panel breaker and the charger's GFI, routing wire between the ground floor fireplace and the chimney on the roof, solution=an elegant wireless Lutron switch). Both the field and the office teams were efficient and pleasant. I would use them in the future without question. They were competent at every level. And while not the cheapest bid on all work, with an old house I have found it saves in the long run to go with an experienced firm."
"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."
"Contacted S&S via Angies List to get a quote on some electrical work. Scott and his team were very responsive and helpful. It turns out that I did not use S&S for this work at this time, but I wanted to comment favorably on their customer service. Would consider them for future work and recommend others consider them."
"We couldn t be happier with Dan from Do Good Electric. He was prompt, courteous, and worked with us to stay within budget for our basement remodel. He explained everything he was doing, kept the work areas clean and was extremely respectful of our home and property. We would recommend Do Good Electric to anyone and will absolutely hire him for any future electrical jobs we need."
"Kevin installed a power transfer switch and the necessary wiring cables for the system. The work was flawless and completed on schedule! I would definitely use his company services again and highly recommend."
"Excellent service. Ryan was professional, flexible, quick with response time and very reasonably priced. I would highly recommend his company for any electrical work needed for your home."
Having a Level 2 charger can increase your home value, especially as electric vehicles become more popular. Homebuyers who have EVs or are interested in getting one will appreciate the convenience of a ready-to-use charging station. The added value can vary based on location and buyer preferences.
You can use outdoor electrical outlets to conveniently power landscaping equipment such as electrical lawnmowers, leaf blowers, and pressure washers. From a recreational standpoint, outdoor outlets are handy for powering electric grills, mini-fridges, and stereos. They're also helpful when it's time to string Christmas lights on your home and around your property.
You can plug your electric car into a regular 120-volt household outlet only if you’re using a Level 1 charger. This method is slower and may take several days to fully charge your EV. For faster charging, you’ll need a Level 2 charger, which requires a 220- or 240-volt outlet.
The cost of installing a 240-volt outlet for an electric car averages between $175 and $300. Depending on the type of outlet as well as labor costs, you might pay as little as $130 or upwards of $400. Hiring a professional electrician makes up the bulk of the expense but ensures a safe and code-compliant installation.
Local electricians with experience in your area understand the local building codes, which is very important when doing new electrical work. They also have experience with the kind of electrical problems homes in your location may have, and even the components that were used in the original construction, which leads them to make faster and better decisions.
