They told me $69.00 so I scheduled the call. The electrician came to my house, took a quick look around and then sat for around 2 hours doing an 'appraisal'. He told me that he would not do any work on the house because it would not pass the electrical inspection (it was in a 'pending' status at the time) and that they would probably have to do a 'demolition' of the walls, which would cost somewhere in the neighborhood of $5,000.00 to $10,000.00. At the end of this long, rambling appraisal, he presented me with a bill for approximately $380.00. That was bad enough to have to pay that for no work, but the most outrageous thing about it was that the appraisal was dead wrong. When I had the county electrical inspector out to my house a few days later, the house did pass the inspection (although the garage did not), so the Paris Plumbing electrician's diagnosis was totally wrong about the house. I kept looking until I found a reliable and trustworthy electrician to do the work on the garage to bring it up to code."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/tn/mcminnville/paris-plumbing-and-electric-reviews-6284026.htm"},"position":5},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Williams Moisture Control LLC","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"NC","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Helen B."},"reviewBody":"The landscaping fabric they put on the mud didn’t hold and it washed through the rock. It didn’t hold up plus they didn’t connect the pumps properly for months. The mud washed through the gravel and he came back and said he had to put in a retaining wall. After I paid him $8300 he said he needed another $8300 to finish it. I later got quotes from a couple other places and they weren’t that expensive. But I was in a hurry to get it done. He started with a reasonable estimate and he wanted half of it right then. He came back on Monday and said he’d been thinking about it and he added another good little amount. It just went on and on. It took months to get it done. The sump pumps weren’t connected to electricity.

FAQs for electrical service projects in Whittier, NC
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.
