"My job was complicate because there is agency that need to approve the work FEMA and the township of Keansburg . So I looked around for some time I interview few contractors and was not sure but luckily Tom was recommended by one of my friends I interviewed him and was very much satisfied impressed by the answers and knowledge of what needed to be done. We shocked hands and complete the form to get the permit from the township no issue everything was fine. He showed do the job in time. The job was done very quickly and clean . The inspection passed the electrical work and the laid out of the cable and panel. With complement for the electrical inspector. I receive Communication from the electrical company that they will connect the electrical wire to the house. Thank Tom I almost forgot the price for the work was less than the other’s contractor. I recommend Contaldi electrical contractor. And gives them my genuine thanks I know that because of Tom work I would have electricity. Thank"

Work performed included upgrading the amp service, installing a standby generator, installing all new wiring throughout the house, installation of all electric fixtures, receptacles, switches and detectors and installation of dedicated lines for major appliances, HVAC etc. Anthony and his team were very knowledgeable of code issues and inspections were flawless. Very much appreciated Anthony’s personal engagement with the project, his thoughtful suggestions and his patience in addressing our questions."

"Mike was fantastic! The price for installation of recessed lighting was very fair. Mike took the time to go over what I wanted, gave me his feed back and was very professional. I was absolutely thrilled when the installation was complete. I would recommend A Shore Thing Electric to everyone I know. I would tell anyone looking to hire an electrician to call Mike first!!!!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Yes—if a breaker is old or damaged, it might not be able to detect power surges or electrical overload. If that happens, the breaker won’t trip. Instead, it will begin to overheat, putting your electrical system at risk of fire or total electrical failure. Circuit breakers don’t last forever, so you can proactively replace old or damaged breakers before they stop working.

The National Electric Code states that outlets should not be spaced more than 12 feet apart, and there should be an outlet placed every 6 feet at the floor line in areas designated as living spaces. Most homes in the United States have 75 outlets, but it will depend on the amount you need based on your home's size and your needs.

If you strictly adhere to electrical safety rules, including assuming that a circuit is hot until proven otherwise, and have some knowledge of how an electrical circuit works, you can likely replace a light switch by yourself without too much trouble. However, it's always advisable to call a nearby electrical pro to do the job if you're unsure of any steps necessary to change a light switch. 

A 100 amp electrical service panel can't convert into a 200 amp panel simply by switching the breakers or adding circuits. Upgrading from 100 to 200 amps typically requires replacing the circuit box and updating the electrical service coming into the house. Your electrician will handle the details of the project to ensure a safe and thorough installation.

Most electric water heaters have a built-in shut-off switch, so you can simply turn that to the OFF position. Some water heaters have the switch inside a panel, so you might need to unscrew the panel, remove it, move aside the insulation, and then shut the water heater off. To make sure it’s off, you can also locate the switch for your water heater in your electrical panel and shut the power off there. Most electrical panels have dedicated switches for the water heater, so you can shut off the power without affecting the rest of your home.
