"The RaLo electrician did a great job running new wire to install my outdoor camlight. He also informed me of a number of other issues he noticed and gave me good price to address those issues as well. I definitely recommend their services."
"Ludwing did an amazing job! He installed a new light fixture in my home and what I appreciated the most was that he explained the connection to the wiring and how things work. This was very helpful because he corrected a job from a handyman who installed a light fixture that could have destroyed my home. He is a master of his craft. Not only will I use him for future projects but have also shared his contact with friends needing electronic assistance."
"It went very well. They were very courteous and cleaned up after themselves. They were respectful of my space and of me while working in my home. They did a walk-through before hand to make sure we were on the same page with everything and then did another walk-through at the end to make sure everything was done and correct. This is the first time I've dealt with an electrician and I was very impressed, I will use him again in future if we have any electrical problems."
"A+ Top notch service. Installing 1 attic fan, realized needed another one replaced. They went out, got a 2nd one and installed them both, plus gave advice on our under cabinet lights that always blink. Followed up the next day with a $15 solution to try before we do a repair. Good communication - they answer the phone when you call. Showed up on time and done in under 2 hours which included the time to get the 2nd fan."
"Juan arrived a bit later than expected but got to work and did the jobs, running to Home Depot for needed parts which I didn't know we needed. He explaned things to me and knew what he was doing. He did all the jobs I outlined and left with everything working. He was cooperative in pointing the kitchen track lights where I wanted the to shine. He then looked at the plumbing job (vanity install) and realized that the vanity I bought wasn't a feasible option because of the direction of my pipes (to the side and not the back) therefore needing to go right through the drawers! I have returned the vanity to Home Depot! He didn''t waste time talking to me but did talk to himself (or on his phone ) while he worked! He cleaned up his dust and debris well, Satisfied with his cost which really should have been higher when I thought about it later. I would use him again if he was from near Frederick, but he came from Baltimore! I'd rather use local tradesmen...."
"I purchased a $99.00 deal for 1 electrician for two hours and Angies List also gave me $10.00 off. Ryan came to our home and he was punctual and very professional. He was ontime and went right to work. After he finished the lights in the garage he said I still had time left on the agreement so he got his extension ladder and replaced both of my second story outside flood lamps. I could not have been happier with his service and what i received for my money. I would recommend his group anytime and will use them again. Thanks Angie's List "
"The light switch in my bathroom started making a sound and I could smell it burning. I called the company as soon as they opened. I got the owner on the phone and he said he could have someone come out to my house later that day and gave on instructions on handling the light switch until his employee arrived. His employee called prior to visit to let me know he when he would arrive. The employee arrived on time, replaced the old switch and installed in a new switch. They charge by the hour and there was still time left over, so I was able to have him check on some other electrical issues. He gave me his assessment the issues and his recommendation for the products I needed. He also worked with the owner to offer me a discount when I was ready to get those items installed. I will be using their services again soon."
"The provider performed the service and explained why our light fixture wasn't working properly. Since it was simply a matter of not screwing a light bulb in properly he only charged a service fee and not labor plus gave me 10% off."
"The speakers were installed nicely. Although they were installed too close to wall and now limiting my options for screen install. The owner is very knowledgeable and I wish he was present on the day of install."
"Great job! They responded quickly to my request, showed up as expected, and completed the job efficiently! I couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience!"
Chandelier Installation questions, answered by experts
Projection spotlights offer an alternative (or addition) to Christmas lights. You simply plug in the projection and aim it at the side of your house or garage and watch the lightshow happen.
First of all, don’t shop for bargain lights—often, you’ll end up with a faulty or broken strand, full of dead bulbs or less-than-luminous brightness. Choose quality lights that will last you many years—LED lights have been known to last as long as 100,000 hours. Second, plan ahead and purchase lights for next year’s Christmas during this year’s post-holiday sales. Finally, have a vision and a plan—if you know the measurements of your home, including any windows, doors, and outside bushes you wish to light up, you should be able to only purchase the necessary lights and not more than you need.

Installing recessed lights requires you to cut holes in the ceiling, create an electrical wiring connection, install the fixture, and connect it to your service panel. It should only be done by those with electrical skills, due to the safety concerns it presents.
If you feel uneasy about taking it on yourself, it’s recommended to contact a local technician to complete the installation for you.
