We have been serving customers in Maine for about 15 years. Previously, we were under the name Quietside Electric when we were located in Southwest Harbor and before that as Mountainside Electric when we were based out of Carrabassett Valley. We are a small operation and that gives us the ability to take on the small tasks that most of the larger size contractors do not want to take on. We will be closing for March and April to take our snowbird break during the spring mud season but we have availability for the rest of 2025 and the start of 2026.

"Yes, Ross was very efficient, answered the call immediately as my refrigerator was on the blow out. He came in from Bar Harbor. His price was fair!!!"

"Guys were professional and knew their stuff. Arrived on time,too. Solved my issue in 15 minutes. 'Was completely unprepared for the over $500 bill! My regular electrician was too busy but this was a fire hazard which demanded immediate attention. Wouldn't book with Baker's company again just because of outrageous price."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Volts and watts aren’t directly convertible units—they measure different aspects of electricity. Volts measure electrical potential, while watts quantify the power. The relationship between the two is defined by the equation: Power (watts)= Voltage (volts) x Current (amperes). In other words, the product of volts and amps results in watts, but there is no fixed conversion of volts into watts.

The average cost to replace an outlet is between $125-$200. However, it can cost more if you have complex electrical issues that need fixing. You can expect to pay between $50-$100 an hour to hire an experienced electrician. But it's worth the cost to keep your home and family safe. 

First, check the current electrical code in your area to ensure spaces you’re considering meet the requirements. After that, your outlet’s location is up to you. If you’re moving it to hide wiring, you may want to move it in a spot that will also be hidden from view, such as behind a media center or table. As long as you meet the spacing guidelines set by electrical codes, you should be able to pick any spot in your home for an outlet. 

Many homes have a 200-amp service, which requires a 2-inch electrical meter riser. Larger homes or homes that require more energy for several appliances and devices may have a 400-amp service. For 400-amp service, opt for a 4-inch electrical meter riser.

Different types of light switches include single-pole switches (the standard switch in your home), double-pole switches, toggle switches, three-way switches, four-way switches, dimmer switches, and more. 

A single-pole light switch controls the power to a single device, whereas two-way, three-way, and four-way light switches control lights from different locations, increasing the number of connections in the home.
