"Kevin, answered my call promptly. Responded to the issue the same day that I called him and he also arrived timely. The defective switch was fixed within 10 mins. and Kevin was on his way. I was so pleased with the service and I will definitely call K&K first, if I have any additional electrical issues."

"Everything about Able Electrical Services service was superb! I was in a jam, and Able Electrical Services came to the rescue. Both of the mechanics that assisted were excellent. Russell Ridgway was the primary mechanic and he was amazing! His work is superior and he exceeded my expectations every step of the way. For example, I needed electrical outlets to connect install a wet bar. He measured the wet bar and installed the outlets exactly where they were needed and ensured sufficient power was added to accommodate a kegerator and mini-frigs. I highly recommend Able Electrical Services and hope I never need to use any other electrician."

"We had just moved into a newly renovated house. One by one the recessed lights throughout the house were burning out. The electrician from Kolb took his time diagnosing the problem until he found the cause. He was very thorough and patient. In the end it was some loosely concocted wires. We were very happy with the time he spent to get it right.

"The service was stellar from the start. I contacted C. T. Smith Electrical and everything from explaining what I needed to the actual work being done was managed professionally. I provided pictures as well as the electricians came out to assess. The price was very fair for the jobs requested and even when there were some issues that required additional work, the additional cost was fair. They have no way of knowing what is behind the scenes until the start the work and I completely appreciated their assessment and the options available to complete the job. I am so happy with outcome. I will definitely recommend! Thanks C. T. Smith Electrical."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

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 cost of fixing faulty wiring depends on the type of repair required. Replacing an electrical service line, for example, can cost up to $500. Rewiring an entire house will cost at least several thousand dollars. Replacing old wiring like knob and tube wiring will be even more expensive, but fortunately that kind of outdated wiring is fairly rare. Always get an estimate from a reliable electrician to learn the cost details. 

Most mechanical and digital timers will only turn your Christmas lights on and off once per day, but a smart timer will likely do so as many times as you want.

A full home inspection can cost nearly $350 on average, but inspecting the breaker box specifically is likely to be lower, between $100 and $200. Don’t confuse this service with a basic breaker trip check, which doesn’t take long and is usually billed at $40 to $50 per hour.

If the electrician discovers a serious problem and needs to replace a breaker, it can cost between $100 and $200 in additional expenses. Although rare, replacing the electrical panel typically costs between $500 and $2,000.

On average, it takes from four to eight hours to replace an outside electrical meter box, not including rewiring. It will take a few more hours if the project requires pros to do any rewiring work. Consult your local electrician about a time estimate for your specific project.
