"One of the few contractors I've ever worked with who actually sticks with the quoted price and timeline. Great work, explanation of work, and I've had ZERO issues since IQ Electric did the work in my newly finished basement. They will be my first call if I need future electrical work done."

"Very professional and efficient. I felt that communication was clear, and he made sure that I was 100% happy with the job before he left. Everything was explained clearly to me from start to finish, and he guided me on purchasing my EV charging box. I would definitely hire Jeff again for any future electrical work."

"Got back to me promptly and came out right away to go over the work, made appointment for the next week to do the work, showed up when he said, worked efficiently, did good work. I arranged for Cody to come back to run power to my shed through an existing 100 foot conduit which also went well and it was not a new conduit. I plan to use Cody for future electrical projects."

"Josh is fair and very responsive with his crew of interchangeable professionals who are prompt and professional. My project was a huge undertaking across four apartments involving exterior panel installations and a complete rewiring of the entire building. I worked with about 6 of his crew members spanning months without any meaningful complaint and would depend on them for all my future electrical endeavors. His pricing is very fair for the quality of work you get."

"I hired Bill to change a 15amp outlet to a 20amp. The job was more in depth than I anticipated because of the distance from circuit breaker to outlet location and the need for new wiring. We discussed discussed other location possibilities, but Bill was confident he could complete the job as I had planned. He did so with absolute confidence and professionalism. Much appreciated!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

In Lewiston, overloading outlets with space heaters or portable appliances during harsh winters can strain circuits and wiring. Ignoring humidity control in older basements may lead to corrosion and electrical faults. Skipping regular inspections for water leaks or outdated wiring, especially in historic homes, increases risks. Avoid DIY electrical changes without proper planning, as this can compromise safety and reduce the lifespan of your electrical system.

Helpful?

Upgrading electrical systems in Lewiston can make your home more attractive to buyers, especially given the area’s older housing stock. Modernizing panels, adding GFCI outlets, and installing whole-house surge protection are popular improvements. Energy-efficient lighting and smart home features are also appealing, as they help manage Maine’s higher electricity costs and add convenience, both of which boost resale value and marketability.

Helpful?

Before starting electrical work in Lewiston, confirm that all required permits are secured and your contractor is experienced with local housing types. Schedule utility service upgrades or power shutoffs in advance, as these can take time. If your home is historic, arrange for a thorough inspection to identify hazards like outdated wiring or hidden moisture. Planning around Maine’s winter weather helps prevent unexpected delays.

Helpful?

Many Lewiston homes feature thick stone foundations, plaster walls, or original knob-and-tube wiring, making upgrades more challenging. If your house has been converted from multi-family use or sits near the river, you may face added moisture or intricate layouts. These factors often require specialized tools and techniques, so it’s wise to have a professional assess your home’s unique electrical needs.

Helpful?

In Lewiston, you can safely replace standard outlets or light switches if you first turn off power at the breaker and use a voltage tester, especially in homes with older wiring. Avoid working in damp areas or on circuits you’re unsure about. If you discover knob-and-tube wiring, need to upgrade your panel, or have outdoor electrical concerns, contact a local professional to ensure safety and code compliance.
