Flat Rate Services Charlotte has been in business since 2015. We services all of Charlotte and the Charlotte metro areas. I have over 40 years experience in the plumbing, electric & remodeling trades. I pride myself on doing what is best for my customer always putting my customers before profits. I understand that my customers work hard for their money so I do everything possible to help them get the best finished job for their dollar. That is the reason I started the Flat Rate business model. If you require a standard Plumbing, electrical, appliance or audio/video installation you always know exactly what it's going to cost. You will never hear that Joe down the street had the same work done for $100 less because he paid the same reasonable flat rate. There have been many other that have popped up since 2015 trying to copy my flat rate model but nobody does it with the quality & pricing that I offer. If you have me do your job you can sleep well knowing that you got the best quality work for your money

"I hired W B Lighting Rods/William Burden to install lightning rods on my home. I spoke to William on a Monday and by Thursday before 1 PM the lightning rods were installed on my home. William explained everything he was going to do before he did it. The lightning rods were affordable and most of all it gives me peace of mind knowing that my home is protected against lightning strikes and fire damage. I couldnâ t be happier with this company!!"

"John truly exceeded all my expectations by responding quickly and completing everything in one afternoon! At my Mom’s house, I needed two porch light fixtures replaced and the inside chime system of the doorbell repaired. Even with unforeseen problems, such as having to rewire a part of the porch light connections and installing a new chime system, John gave me repair options, let me choose the one that worked best for my needs, and ensured that I understood everything before proceeding with repairs. Plus, he was more than fair with his service fee! I will continue to refer John to everyone I know! So if you need an Electrician, you won’t be disappointed by giving John the opportunity to earn your business!!!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

You can use both LED and incandescent bulbs in an incandescent fixture as long as the bulb base is the right size. Never use a higher wattage than what the fixture recommends. However, it’s usually safe when transitioning to LED bulbs because they typically have a lower wattage than their incandescent counterparts.

There are a few ways to reduce your electricity bills if you use window AC units to keep cool. Set the unit temperature at least 1 degree higher than it is currently to reduce costs. Keep the unit clean for it to run efficiently. You may want to hire a window AC specialist near you to inspect the unit once a year and keep it in tip-top shape.

There are a few signs of a faulty or failing dimmer switch. This includes your dimmer overheating or feeling warm to the touch, buzzing or clicking noises coming from the dimmer, your dimmer failing to properly dim the lights, and flickering lights. That said, these signs could signal other electrical issues. You’ll need a pro to figure out if your dimmer is the source.

You can use a double-pole switch for a regular light fixture, but it's unnecessary and won’t be the most efficient choice. A single-pole switch works perfectly for standard lights. Double-pole handle high-power appliances that require both hot wires to be disconnected. Using a single-pole switch for regular lights is more cost-effective, simpler, and more common in residential settings.

Track lighting typically needs to be hardwired, connecting directly to the electrical wiring in your ceiling for a permanent and reliable power source. Hardwiring provides a clean and professional look with no visible cords. However, plug-in track lighting options can be connected to a standard electrical outlet, offering easier installation and flexibility. The choice between hardwired and plug-in track lighting depends on your needs, preferences, and existing electrical setup.
