"Absolutely Top-Tier Electrical Work Hire Them Now! Stop what you're doing. Seriously if you need electrical work done, this is the company to call. They upgraded my home panel, dug a trench, and ran a clean, powerful line to a 60-amp sub panel for my studio. And when I say they crushed it, I mean every detail was handled with precision and care. They started by uninstalling the old panel and installing the new one like seasoned pros. Every circuit was run with intention, and the new ground wires were laid flawlessly. The work in the studio? Some of the best I’ve ever seen. Power is strong, clean, and professionally routed it’s everything I hoped for and more. They didn’t just do a job they elevated the space. Their work gave me peace of mind and made the studio feel like a real extension of my home. If craftsmanship, reliability, and integrity matter to you, do yourself a favor and hire this company. You'll be genuinely impressed."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Your heating and cooling systems cost you the most on your electric bill and make up 50% of your bill on average. Your washing machine, dryer, oven, and stove contribute significantly to your electric bill as well. Lights, fans, and smaller electronics add up, but aren’t the biggest energy consumers. You can reduce your power usage by setting optimal temperatures on your thermostat and investing in energy-efficient appliances.

Provided you leave the switch in the off position, your broken bulb shouldn’t be drawing any power. However, there’s always the risk that the switch is turned on by accident, potentially causing electrical damage or even a fire. Plus, broken glass in the home is never ideal. For safety, it’s a good idea to remove broken bulbs as soon as possible. If you’re in doubt, a local lighting professional can help you remove the bulb safely and quickly.

Yes, GFCI breakers are required for all outdoor outlets. This code requirement applies to all outlets located on balconies, decks, patios, and other outdoor lounge spaces. In addition, outdoor outlets need to have watertight covers that provide protection when cords are plugged in. If you have an older home that may not be up to code, it's a good idea to also ask your electrician about adding GFCIs to some indoor areas. Kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and any other areas of a home that are commonly exposed to moisture should have GCFI breakers.

The National Electric Code requires at least one GFCI outlet in each sectioned-off portion of a finished or unfinished basement and at least one GFCI outlet per circuit in a fully finished basement. There may be additional codes based on your local municipality and building department. A licensed electrician in your area will be familiar with the requirements and can ensure your home is up to code.

Yes, a light switch still has power even when switched off. Switches only interrupt or continue the flow of electricity into a fixture or outlet; they do not shut off the power flowing into the wire. The only way to shut off power in a light switch is to turn off the power at the circuit breaker.
