Customers say: True professional

"We’re more than happy with the work he did for us. We admire his professionalism, efficiency and expertise in his line of work. His fee is very reasonable not to mention that we have only enough as retirees but need some things to get done in the house. I was lucky to pick his name among the many choices. Now I know who to call when something needs to be fixed in the house. I highly recommend him. Nothing will go wrong when he does things. Thank you so much Austin."

Electrical FAQs, answered by experts

A correctly installed 3-way switch will not trip a breaker. If using a 3-way switch trips your circuit breaker, the ground wire might be touching something it should not be, there could be a short in the wiring, a wire could be loose, or the wrong wires are connected to the wrong locations on the switch. If you cannot easily see the problem, such as a loose wire, contact an electrician to fix the issue.

You're in luck, because replacing a breaker panel is not a regular occurrence that most homeowners have to worry about. Electrical breaker panels last 25 to 40 years, assuming you properly maintain your system and conduct annual inspections. Factors like load demand and exposure to the elements slightly reduce a breaker panel’s lifespan.

Heated floors use less electricity than traditional heating systems. The average electric bill for running radiant floor heating nonstop is around $3 per day. For example, a 1,500-watt electric space heater costs around $4.80 per day, a 27,000-BTU electric boiler costs around $6.25 per day, and a 100,000-BTU electric heater costs $46 per day.

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.

That depends on your setup. If a circuit breaker already has GFCI protection, then everything connected to that specific circuit is being monitored. You don’t need additional GFCI outlets on that breaker.

However, if the breaker is not GFCI, then you should have GFCI receptacles for at-risk outlets nearby water sources, because they are not receiving protection. Breakers in a breaker box can vary between GFCI and non-GFCI. Look for GFCI labels on the breaker or try to find the breaker model number to look it up if you aren’t sure.
