"My initial contact with Hans Nix was a bit odd as I had just started looking on Angie's List for Electricians and received a call from Mr. Nix. He asked me what type of work I needed to have done, I told him and he said he saw my inquiry on Home Advisor. I was not aware Angie's List and Home Advisor were one entity? Nevertheless, he came out that very day, 8/13/18 and gave me a quote for the job. In hindsight perhaps I should have obtained at least one more quote/estimate, as the actual time he spent replacing my fixtures was 5 hours. This equals $145.00 per hour. Two days later I found issues with both Vanity Lights in my bathrooms and had to call Mr. Nix back. He claimed the problems lay with the fixtures, that I needed to obtain new ones from the company I ordered them and he will come back out and switch them out. Now, I am not the type of person who hovers over people while they are performing work in or around my home. However, when Mr. Nix was finished he was in a rush to be on his way so I went ahead and paid him. It was not until the following day that I noticed the problem with the fixtures. One Vanity Light had 6 shades of which 2 were not all the way screwed to the top. I tried to fix this and all it would do was turn without catching on anything. Another one was completely touching my mirror and it was impossible to move it. The Vanity Light in my Guest Bath had a sizeable defect in the brass coating. I thought this would be in the back, however, I was mistaken and it is in the front of the fixture. Mr. Nix left these 2 fixtures in this condition without saying anything to me before he left. I feel it would have been prudent of him to mention these defects to me as I certainly would not have had him install the Guest Bath Vanity Fixture at all and have him take a look at the Master Bath Vanity Fixture to find out why 3 shades fit perfectly and the other 3 did not when all the pieces were identical. For Mr. Nix to return he will charge what he calls a "service call" and will cost $75.00 to re-install the new Vanity Fixtures when they arrive. I had mentioned to him that I thought the electrical box in the Master Bath should be re-located higher and would hope that is included in the $75.00. I am debating as to whether or not to have him back, in part because he keeps trying to sell me his "Whole House Surge Protection," and also due to the rather high cost I've already paid and it seems to be ongoing."

It’s important to ask an electrician a few questions before you commit to hiring them so you can make an informed decision as a consumer. If you’re getting estimates or considering hiring an electrician, ask them these questions:
Are you a full-time electrician?
Are you bonded, licensed, and insured?
What level of experience do you have as an electrician?
Can you please share three references?
Do you do residential or commercial electrical work?
What kinds of electrical work are you most familiar with?
Will any subcontractors be performing the work?
Are permits and inspections required?
Who is responsible for obtaining permits and inspections?
What is your schedule?
Do you offer a guarantee or warranty on your work?
Will you sign a do-not-exceed clause to keep the job within the budget?
Tipping an electrician is not a requirement nor is it expected, as they build a fair wage into the price of the job. It’s up to your discretion. There are no set rules for tipping electricians, but if they did a great job and you’re so inclined to tip 10% to 15%, it will likely be received with thanks.
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.
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.
Yes, although there are different types of electricians, they must be licensed, certified, and in most cases insured. States have different requirements for electrician licensing and certifications. In some cases, there may be licensing requirements at the local level, but not the state level. It’s always a good practice to confirm requirements with your local municipality. If licensing is not required in your area, you may pay more for a licensed electrician with experience than one who is not licensed or certified, but you’re likely to get a better end result for your project.
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.
