"Eric did a fantastic job installing our new bathroom fan. He was courteous, honest, and clearly knows his trade. The fan is quiet and works beautifully. It’s such a relief to find someone reliable and skilled. We will definitely use Angell Electrical again! Highly recommend."

"First, at the beginning of the summer season in a tourist town, they were able to fit me in two business days from my call. The issue was complex and after a lot of diagnostics, they determined that a wire had to be installed from the outlet to the ceiling light, replacing one that had failed. I imagined a mess and that I'd have to spend time patching and painting. 30 minutes later, I had a new wire, new box in my ceiling (which actually supported the modern light fixture, and they had cleaned up and put everything back. They found a novel way to get into the ceiling (behind a vent hood) so that you'd never know they were there. My second time with RGS and a second win - reasonable pricing, fast, efficient, and informative."

"Within days of purchasing the deal, I received the instructions and paper to draw my table templates. The table has 2 drop leaves plus 2 additional leaves that can be inserted in the table. The templates were pretty easy to draw. The finished pads were delivered in a very short time. They fit the table and each of the 4 leaves perfectly and magnetically lock together to keep them aligned when on the table. A year and a half later, I still love these pads."

The majority of potential burglars are amateurs looking to make a quick buck after breaking and entering. By installing motion-sensor lights, alarm systems, and security cameras, throughout the home, there’s a good chance you will deter crime on your property.

Cold weather can cause older incandescent Christmas lights to fail by causing cracks in the finish or the glass itself. Modern LED lights are affected in the opposite way and perform even better as the temperature drops. 

Yes, outdoor lights and receptacles should be on a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) for safety. The outdoors is considered a wet location where GFCI protection is generally required. A GFCI enhances safety by automatically tripping and shutting off the circuit if it detects an imbalance, which protects against electrocution and reduces the risk of an electrical fire. While it is the safest approach for all outdoor electrical components, specific requirements can vary depending on the type of light (e.g., pool lights), its location, and local electrical codes. For guidance tailored to your specific situation, it's best to consult a professional electrician.

If you need to visually inspect your Christmas lights to determine which are good and which need replacement, there are a few things to look for. First, look for discoloration, such as a dark spot or two on the inside of the glass. The spot is an indication of a burnt filament. Also, look for missing filaments, cracked bulb glass, and broken sockets.
