"Igor Zora and his painters did a magnificent job, paying attention to detail. They also wallpapered our bathroom. Being an older house, there were many things that needed special attention. They even steam-cleaned the bathtub. As Mr Zora was also working in a separate business venture, he was often unavailable to us, but he always came through. A big shout-out to his painters, Joanna White and her daughter, Melody. They did most of the painting, and did a beautiful job. All in all, we are satisfied with the work done."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

A correctly functioning outlet will not cause a fire risk if nothing is plugged in. However, if the circuit is overloaded or there is a fault with the outlet, the connecting wiring, or the circuit it is attached to, this can lead to the risk of fire or electrocution, even when nothing is plugged in. Turn off the circuit breaker immediately and seek professional assistance if you suspect a fault.

A C-wire is typically blue, but don’t rely on colors to find which wire is which when it comes to thermostat wires. The C-wire may also be black, brown, or purple. Instead, if you’re looking for the C-wire, look at the thermostat panel for a wire connecting to “terminal C,” or call in a pro to help you look for a C-wire.

By nature, two-prong outlets aren't grounded—but the box they run to might be, which makes them safer. The safest way to test if an outlet is grounded is to purchase a circuit tester, which cost about $20 at home improvement stores. 

If you discover your outlet (or outlets) aren't grounded, know that this greatly increases your risk of personal injury and electrical fires. You may want to consider installing new three-prong ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlets. On average, the cost to install GFCI outlets is about $210 per outlet.

A ceiling light will usually have two or three wires: black, white, and sometimes green. Black wires are positive, or hot, while white wires are negative, or neutral. The green wire is the grounding wire. 

When you’re wiring the light, connect black to black, white to white, and green to the grounding screw.

Regular inspections, avoiding circuit overloads, and updating wiring when needed help maintain efficiency.
