"I purchased a Big Deal and they came out. I informed them to let me know when the 2 hours are up so I can decide if I want them to continue. They came 2 hours early but the time frame they came I informed them it was possible that I might not be home. They charged me extra since there were two workers. One of the workers was outside smoking and on the phone. That was unprofessional because they were supposed to be working. The bottom line they did well but they left a mess downstairs and there is sawdust and electrical wires exposed all over the floor. He stated that most people do not expect him to clean since he will charge extra. I expected to clean some but not everything."

"Bought a house in Detroit for investment purposes. A 2 family home that 1 unit needed a complete renovation the other mainly cosmetic. Mr. Solomon gave a very reasonable quote. And did work on many things. Flooring,plumbing,electrical,concrete painting to name a few. After the work was completed and he was paid he came back to correct a minor issue within a couple of hours with no additional charge or complaint. Would definitely hire again. Thank you Mr. Solomon."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The standard copper wire gauge to use with any 30-amp circuit is a 10-gauge wire. The National Electric Code specifies a 10-gauge wire with appliances like water heaters running on 30 amps. If you try to use a smaller gauge wire, such as a 12 gauge, with a 30-amp breaker, you run the risk of the wire overheating and melting or causing a fire. Because of the safety hazards, the gauge of the wire is not an area to try to cut costs when connecting a 30-amp breaker to a water heater.

Yes, an AFCI (arc fault circuit interrupter) outlet also has line and load terminals, although it uses different technology than a GFCI and offers a different kind of protection. AFCIs monitor for internal arc faults, a type of wiring problem that can start an electrical fire.

For most applications, you won’t need a neutral for 240V. There are certain codes and regulations that differ between areas so just because you technically may not need one in order for the device to function properly, it may still be a local requirement. Professionals in your area know the requirements, which is just another reason to hire one instead of taking on a project that is frankly not very DIY-friendly.

Different fences use different amounts of electricity, but their operating costs are very low overall. Electric fences pull between 4 and 25 watts from the system if you have an average-sized yard. Barring any complicated math, you can expect an average electric fence to cost less than $5 a month to run. Aboveground electric fences, which are not typical for residential use or small animals, can cost more, but you shouldn't notice a significant change in your electric bill. 

To prevent a plug from overheating, always ensure that the electrical load connected to the plug does not exceed the plug's capacity. If the plug feels hot to the touch or emits a burning smell, immediately shut off the circuit breaker and unplug all devices from the hot outlet. Prevent electrical fires by avoiding using extension cords or adapters with the plug, as they can cause it to overheat due to increased resistance. Additionally, ensure that the plug is properly inserted into the outlet and that the outlet is not damaged or loose.
