"Keith answered my initial call personally and came by within 2 hours. The entire socket (which was plastic) had to be replaced. He installed a new porcelain fixture. He was very pleasant and professional. I've given his contact info to some family members who need some electrical work. Overall, we were very pleased and will use him again for our electrical needs."

"The blower motor on my furnace was squeeling, and not working at all most times. When I spun the squirrel cage manually it would work for a short time, but then finally got to the point where it wasnt working at all. Just a hummy noise. When I called them, I left a message and within hours I got a call back. I explained what I thought was wrong and they confirmed that it sounded like a bad blower motor, or to try the starter capacitor first. I got a capacitor first and swapped out, but no luck. Then got in touch with them again and within a hour got a new motor to swap out. He was very easy going and said I could swap it out myself if I wanted and then if I had problems, to call them and they could come out. I attempted the swap, but I could not get the squirrel cage off the old motor. I called them the next day and they came out that same day and finished the work for me using the right tools. Within a hour and a half, I was up and working again and have been working fine ever since. a new blower motor and starting capacitor was changed. I would recommend them in the future to anyone."
String lights require electricity, but not an excessive amount, especially when compared to other lighting fixtures. LED rope lights, for instance, consume around one watt per foot. Running six or seven light strings simultaneously should only cost you around $10 to $15 each month. You can save even more money by remembering to turn off your lights during daylight hours.
While you can technically live in a home while it's being rewired, prepare for some debris and dust if your electrical contractor needs to remove parts of walls, floors, and ceilings to access wires. If you stay home during the project, ask your electrician to cut the power supply to all exposed electrical wires to keep your family safe.
A duplex outlet simply means that the receptacle has two plug-in outlets for two plugs. It’s a common design choice for homes. The two outlets should be wired identically during installation so the hot side is the same for both.
Appliances in your home that need dedicated circuits include:
Refrigerators and chest freezers
Electric ranges, microwaves, and toaster ovens
Dishwashers and garbage disposals
Washers and dryers
Heating and air conditioning units
Hot tubs, saunas, and water pumps
Sump pumps
Central vacuums
Aluminum wiring can pose a significant fire risk because it tends to expand, contract, and overheat, leading to failing connections and splices. If your home has aluminum wiring, it doesn't always require a complete replacement, but you must take safety precautions. The first step is to hire a licensed electrician to conduct a thorough inspection. Based on their findings, you have several options:
Full Replacement: The safest but most expensive solution is to replace all aluminum wiring with copper.
Copper Pigtailing: A more budget-friendly option, suitable for certain homes, involves adding a short section of copper wire to the end of each aluminum wire at connection points.
Other Safety Upgrades: Your electrician may also recommend installing aluminum-compatible outlets and applying an anti-oxidant paste to connections to prevent corrosion.
Consulting a professional will help you determine the best course of action to ensure your home's wiring meets current safety standards.
