"Once we found a time that worked for both of us, I asked how much it would be. Was told $85. They walk in my house without putting on shoe coverings (we have new carpet) and shoe coverings should just be a given for any service coming into a customer house. The one he sent couldn't figure it out. He was here for MAYBE 10 minutes; he called someone to try and figure it out, ended up going to Menards to purchase a different switch, (that's ok), was gone MAYBE 45 minutes, installe switch and charged $200. Upon my arrival home in the evening, switch did not work. Had to keep another switch on to make the one they installed work. He sent another young man the next day after and he was here MAYBE 10 minutes (and the owner implied he should charge more since they had to come back- REALLY???) I asked if we could some money refunded and was told I could stop by the shop and get 1/2 hour refunded. He can keep is $42.50 to send his employees to school. My opinion total cost should not have been more than $100."

"Kyle was here to try and upgrade the electrical service to my modular home which is 43 years old. It is not cost effective to do."

Customers say: Terrific value

"Justin and his partner, John Petto from ultimate power installed brand new circuit boxes, ran a new 220 service to our new hot tub and fixed the wiring on the fan above the hot tub. With all the work we had to have done, they were very reasonable, and below the three other bids that we received. Actually, one of the bids told us that the wiring to our new hot tub wasnâ t even possible! Justin And John were so professional, knowledgeable, and completed the work in a very, very timely matter. I would highly recommend Justin with Bower Electric and his partner, John with Ultimate Power!"

"This is a truly great company. They provide great customer service and spend time explaining the details and answering questions. My husband obsessed about every single detail and could not deny that it was a no brainer. Our first electric bill since installing the panels was a CREDIT! I was not expecting that. If you have ever considered solar, seriously, just do it. Long term, you can not go wrong."

"Grayson quickly responded to my inquiry about hanging a 65" TV above the fireplace. He provided a reasonable quote and was able to complete the work just two days later. He even arrived early. Once his helper arrived, they got right to work. Both were well-mannered, friendly, respectful, and polite throughout the entire process. They made sure the TV was placed exactly where I wanted it. After finishing, Grayson asked for a paper towel to wipe off any fingerprints and even offered to vacuum the area. I highly recommend Grayson and RidderYoung Property Services. I will definitely be calling him again for any future electronic or electrical jobs."

"The service has always been above and beyond my expectations. For example, I've got an enormous trampoline and they move it every time they mow w/out extra charge. The service is always done on time and well."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Both can and canless lights have distinct advantages, and the better option depends on your specific needs and preferences. Canless lights are often preferred for modern homes due to their slim, low-profile design, energy efficiency, and ability to fit in tight spaces with less ceiling depth required. Can lights, or traditional recessed lights, provide a classic look and may be better for high ceilings or areas that need stronger, more focused light. While they can be durable, they typically require more ceiling space and installation work. Ultimately, you should choose canless lights for a modern look and energy savings, or opt for can lights for a traditional aesthetic and robust lighting in larger spaces.

Rewiring projects cost anywhere between $1,500 and $10,000 on average, depending on the complexity and the size of the rewiring. You can anticipate spending between $2 and $4 per square foot of wire, including labor and materials. Wire material ranges from $0.25 to $1.60 per linear foot.

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.

Often, you can add extra breakers to an electrical panel. A new breaker can help with new appliance needs, and it’s a common solution when finishing an attic or basement. However, adding extra breakers can’t bring in more amps to your house, so you still need enough amp service to power everything in total. 

A GFCI outlet is easy to identify. It features two buttons on the face that read “TEST” and “RESET.” Sometimes, the “RESET” button is red. These are positioned in the center of the two three-prong plug-in slots you see on a regular outlet. Some also feature a green light to indicate when the outlet is working, changing to red when there is a problem.
