"I have a lot of experience in electricity-related areas so I am quite demanding and critical. Each time I have called Buckingham, scheduling was prompt and the techs were knowledgeable, accommodating and thorough. They arrived on time and in the most recent case came back quickly to resolve an issue that was not clearly their responsibility. I really like dealing with these pros and will recommend them to my neighbors."

Customers say: Quick response

"Called Chuck. The office I work for had lights out. Chuck sent Trevor who was very efficient and had them installed and cleaned up his work area. The office is so much brighter. This is the second time that I have called Chuck Raycraft Electric and I will definitely be using their service again. It is so great to have someone so prompt and who values your time. Thank you Chuck and Trevor for a job well done."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Generally, you’ll want to keep between 60 and 70 feet between the generator and the transfer switch. There are a few reasons for this, including:

  • The distance reduces the noise coming from the generator into your home.

  • It increases efficiency because you won’t have a voltage drop from this short of a distance.

  • Prevents carbon monoxide poisoning: keep at least 15 feet between your generator and an open window. 

You can certainly talk with electricians about pricing, but the pro has the first and last word on what they charge. If you feel like a quote is too expensive, you can discuss the quotes that other electricians have made and see if they’ll lower their estimate in return. Or you may be able to talk about specific parts of the estimate and how they can be changed. 

Most electric water heaters have a built-in shut-off switch, so you can simply turn that to the OFF position. Some water heaters have the switch inside a panel, so you might need to unscrew the panel, remove it, move aside the insulation, and then shut the water heater off. To make sure it’s off, you can also locate the switch for your water heater in your electrical panel and shut the power off there. Most electrical panels have dedicated switches for the water heater, so you can shut off the power without affecting the rest of your home.

Local electricians with experience in your area understand the local building codes, which is very important when doing new electrical work. They also have experience with the kind of electrical problems homes in your location may have, and even the components that were used in the original construction, which leads them to make faster and better decisions.

An estimate for electrical work should include an estimated number and an estimated price to complete the work. An electrical estimate should also include a description of the services to be provided as well as the materials to be used, such as wiring, switches, panels, or other items, and the cost for those materials. If any tax is charged, that should appear on the estimate, too. Some estimates may include additional options that can be added to the base price of the quoted job if the customer chooses to go ahead with the add-ons.
