"I had them replace a Circuit Breaker Box in a new home I just purchased. Additionally, they replaced 4 GFCI outlets (meaning they upgraded them to code). Anyway, they showed up at 9 o'clock sharp, worked quickly, quietly, and efficiently. Even with one of my dachshunds who has never quite learned the value of NOT barking at strangers, they acted as if the annoying dog wasn't there. Very polite and courteous. As they left once the job was complete (9 in the morning to 4 in the afternoon) they mentioned that if we noticed anything wasn't right for us to call them and they'd come back out and investigate. The next morning we noticed one of the GFCI outlets wasn't working correctly and there was one other small issue that needed attention. I texted them, told them that noon would work for me, and literally at exactly 12:00 they showed up to correct the minor issues. Great customer service and professional as well. Big job with a big price tag but in the end, I know that my new home has a Circuit Breaker Panel that will function as required when needed instead of burning my house down. Not sure if there really is a price you can put on that kind of peace of mind. These guys are good. If you have a job you need done, then make the appointment here and now. I did and will do so again."

"I have been searching for electrician to come out and fix our voice, Network, and camera lines for our small business. I searched for weeks and wasn't so lucky. I came across homeadvisor.com and saw Progressive Consulting. I gave him a call, 10 minutes later her arrived at my business. I explained what I wanted and he already knew what it would take. He gave me a quote 30 minutes later. Very affordable price for the work he provides. The next day at 9:30 am he came out and completed the job just as estimated nothing less nothing more. I would HIGHLY recommend this company to anyone looking for electrical work. Quality and affordable couldn't ask for anything else."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

They can vary—a lot. For example, while the EU continues to move toward broader standardization, many different types of outlets still exist from country to country. Some local standards cared about polarization, and some didn’t. It’s similar to other countries around the world.

Generally, you’re less likely to find polarized outlets outside North America. However, alternative plugs and outlets often incorporate precautions so that accidentally touching live prongs on a plug is hard or impossible. You may also find interesting regulations overseas that limit the use of outlets in bathrooms or near sinks to decrease the chance of shock.

Old electrical systems may have more problems than newer ones. In some cases, like if your home has aluminum wiring, it may be necessary to update your electrical system. You should also update your home’s wiring if it still has knob and tube wiring, which is considered dangerous by modern building standards. If that applies to you, get in touch with an electrical professional near you to obtain a quote.

A gas stove doesn't always need a dedicated circuit. Unlike an electric range, which uses 240 volts and requires a 240-volt receptacle, a gas stove only uses 120 volts. In some cases, your electrician will need to replace the existing two-pole circuit breaker with a single-pole circuit breaker as well as swap out the existing 240-volt receptacle with a 120-volt replacement.

It can be safe to buy or live in a house with knob and tube (K&T) wiring, but only if the system is in good condition, functional, and has been thoroughly inspected and approved by a licensed electrician. Never purchase a home with K&T wiring without getting a professional electrical inspection first.

Key considerations include:

  • Safety and Condition: An inspector will verify that the wiring is safe and has not deteriorated. Over time, the insulation can wear away, leaving exposed wires that pose a significant fire or shock hazard.

  • System Capacity: The electrical service should be at least 60 amps. However, even at this capacity, K&T systems often struggle to handle the demands of modern appliances and electronics.

  • Lack of Grounding: Knob and tube wiring is an ungrounded system, which is a safety concern for many modern devices.

  • Ongoing Maintenance: If you live in a home with K&T wiring, it's recommended to have it inspected by an electrician every one to two years to ensure it remains in safe working order.

Ultimately, any inspection or modification of a knob and tube system should always be performed by a certified professional.

Heated floors use less electricity than traditional heating systems. The average electric bill for running radiant floor heating nonstop is around $3 per day. For example, a 1,500-watt electric space heater costs around $4.80 per day, a 27,000-BTU electric boiler costs around $6.25 per day, and a 100,000-BTU electric heater costs $46 per day.
