Customers say: Quality work

"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

Before the widespread use of PVC, affixing a ground wire to plumbing pipes was generally considered to be an acceptable workaround. Nowadays, not so much. There are plenty of nonmetallic water pipes and fittings out there, so any ground previously provided by the metallic piping would be interrupted in these cases, which is dangerous.

Yes, in a new home, ground wires are mandatory. Some older homes may not be grounded, but if you decide to renovate, you will need to have your electricity grounded at that time. Remember, grounding helps keep everyone in your home safe from sudden electrical surges. It’s best to hire an electrician to inspect and work with your home’s wiring.

The number of outlets and lights you can safely run on a single circuit depends on the circuit's amperage and local electrical codes. A general rule is to allow one outlet or light fixture per 1.5 amps, keeping the total load under 80% of the circuit breaker's capacity. For example, a 15-amp circuit can typically support up to eight outlets or lights, while a 20-amp circuit can accommodate up to ten. Always consider the combined power usage of all connected devices and fixtures to prevent overloading. For specific guidelines and to ensure safety, it is best to consult local electrical codes or a licensed electrician.

You will need a permit for any electrical work that involves installing or replacing wiring, moving or installing new fixtures, switches, or outlets, hardwiring appliances or HVAC equipment, installing subpanels, and upgrading electrical service. You typically don’t need a permit to have an electrician replace an existing light fixture or electrical box. You can always call your local building department to see if your project needs a permit, but a professional electrician will be able to tell you. In most cases, your professional will pull the permits for you.

Electrical fires are unique from other fire types because they have the potential to deliver electric shocks in addition to being on fire. Avoid serious injury from possible electrical emergency situations by avoiding the use of water, foam-based fire extinguishers, wet-chemical fire extinguishers,  flour, or baking powder to put out an electrical fire.
