"Aaron the owner came out on a weekend too do a wiring inspection on a house my wife and I just moved into. I made several calls trying too find an electrician and in a timely manner. Several tried to upcharge (and didnâ t know I am a licensed contractor in the state I just moved from. ) He provided not only honest answers but a fair affordable price that I can safely feel confident calling again for any further electrical needs"

"This company is obviously nationwide and hires local contractors.  I trusted Agies List that all contractors are licensed, bonded and have background checks.  This person was a handyman and not qualified to wall mount, conceal wires, add electrical outlet.  He  spend five hours in my home, for a job that should have taken two hours and left the area in a disaster.  The TV was hung close to the ceiling, the wires were hanging down from the TV, and the receiver was sitting on top of a plaster box because the cord was too short.  He was obviously not qualified to install TV wall mounts.  I have photos.    As soon as he left, I called Best Buy Geek Squad.  They were able to come out the next day and mount the TV professionally.  I have used the geek squad in Virginia and they are highly qualified.  They charge more than this nationwide company but you get what you pay for.  I called Angies List the day after the disaster and said i did not want to rate this company but I wanted to talk to a manager. No one called me to apologize. I have cancelled my membership.  Do not use this company unless you can be assured that the local contractor is qualified and is licensed.  You should never let anyone into your home that has not had background checks.

"There were many things wrong in my computer (my fault and letting grandchildren on computer) Robert was so helpful, gave me many good instructions to keep everything safe, which I have written down, feel like I have a new computer. He was so excellent and experienced, took his time and was meticulous about what needed to be done. He was a pleasure to work with and I will use this company again! Linda Disy"

"The work of the carpenters and plumber provided was especially good. I have not found a single flaw in the cabinet resurfacing...it is amazing!. The doors and new drawers look great and work well.  The carpenter was able to do the electrical installations and the plumber was able to do minor repairs as necessary. After the counters were installed, the glue had to dry overnight and Sears sent someone else back the next day to finish the plumbing.  All the workers made every effort to clean up their mess and to leave as much of the kitchen as functional as possible. The countertop people were a little less special. They had to redo part of the countertop and were not as reliable in showng up as the others.  They left no instructions for caring for the granite and seemed to think, when I called to ask about this, that mine was an unusual request. They gave me a website for the type of granite they used. According to the salesman we purchased from, the job would take 3-4 weeks. It actually took three months. The delay was, in my opinion, caused by Sears not getting things arranged as efficiently as they might have. That said, I must add that I have never attempted to get such a variety of jobs coordinated on my own. It might have taken six months without Sears organizing things. We were given telephone numbers and email addresses to contact the coordinators, if necessary, and usually got at least a quick reply if not action One other problem is that I discovered, after all workers had left, that there is a spot on the granite countertop which is not polished and shiny like the rest of it. I have called the counter installers and was told they would have to get in touch with Sears about the matter and would get back to me. That has been over a month and I have heard nothing.  The entire job is supposed to be guaranteed. I cannot say Sears has followed up with our complaint but neither am I sure the matter was ever reported to Sears. The overall look of the kitchen is beautiful. The new appliances are working well. I am satisfied with the job and would consider hiring Sears again."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

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.

Professional services ensure safe installations, reliable repairs, and compliance with codes emphasizing safety in electrical networks.

A circuit breaker flipping off when it detects an overloaded circuit isn’t a problem, but flipping the switch frequently can damage it and eventually cause an electrical hazard. If you’re going on a long vacation or leaving your home for the season, you should avoid turning off your circuit breaker to prevent electrical damage to your system.

No, you should always use proper electrical wire caps to safely cap off electrical wires. Electrical tape isn’t as durable as electrical caps and can deteriorate and separate over time, exposing the live wires. The only way to use electrical tape for this project is to wrap it around the caps themselves to reinforce them and create an even stronger connection, preventing an electrical emergency.

The American Wire Gauge system calculates wire size diameters using the complicated formula D(AWG)=.005·92((36-AWG)/39) inch. A simpler rule of thumb is that every six-gauge decrease doubles the wire diameter, and every three-gauge decrease doubles the wire’s cross-sectional area. On the other hand, wavenumbers are typically measured in reciprocal meters (1/m or m−1) or reciprocal centimeters (1/cm or cm−1).
