Closets For LifeAbsolutely the most HORRIBLE experience I have ever had with a contractor. Currently seeking legal action to resolve an abandoned job. I paid MJ $3,000 to complete a job. I, like a fool, paid her in full even though she wasn't done because she needed the money to pay her insurance. Four...
The demolition and installation went on without a hitch. There was a small problem with hot water coming out of the faucet, but the team quickly came over and remedied the situation. I will definitely be using Tilford again.
Tilford ContractingIt went alright, I wasn't really thrilled. They were supposed to install two fan outlets in my ceiling. They did refund me some of the money. They were satisfactory.
D & R Electrical SvcI would highly recommend Lipe Brothers for any garage door installation or service. They're simply the best!

"The individual was prompt and pleasant to work with. However, he was not able to adequately address the situation. What I asked him to do was see about repairing an. old electric sauna stove. He was unable to find parts, and to be fair. these might not be available. He was able to get the stove to work, but then as soon as he left, if didn't work again.. Since he may have been dealing with an impossible task, I can't rate him poorly for this. I would consider working with him again on some other electrical problem."

Generally, general contractors charge between $50 and $150 hourly, though not every contractor charges by the hour. If charging based on the project, you can expect a markup of 10% to 20% of the construction cost. You can expect to pay between $300 and $500 daily if charged by the day.
Yes, you should get a quote or an estimate from an electrician. Most electricians offer free estimates or quotes. When getting quotes, do your research and verify each electrician’s license. Get quotes from three different electricians to compare. If the prices or items listed appear different on the quotes, ask the electrician to clarify. Learning as much as you can about the electrical work you want done will help you get the most accurate estimate.
General contractors are the ones that coordinate home construction projects. They are in charge of the day-to-day oversight of the subcontractors to ensure that the project is completed on time and to resolve problems as they arise. General contractors:
Complete pre-construction planning, both with the customer and crew
Provide realistic cost estimates
Develop construction timelines
Ensure deadlines are met
Acquire permits as needed
Purchase supplies and materials
While city and state laws vary on general contractor licensing requirements, hiring an unlicensed general contractor could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local general contractor guidelines for your area.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
Qualified, licensed electricians will charge from $50 to $100 per hour. The cost to hire an electrician for emergency visits may range from $100 to $200 per hour because this urgent service usually takes place during off hours and may require an electrician to leave or reschedule jobs they’re currently working on. Scheduling work on holidays or during periods of high customer demand, like after a major storm, will also lead to higher rates or extra fees.
