"Excellent. Clayton showed up on time looked at the job and scheduled it. He came back at the scheduled time, installed everything and it all works. I love it. This is my go to company for plumbing, heating and cooling and now for electrical. Do you do windows too?"
"They went above and beyond. My electrical outlet in the living room (with tv, etc) had stopped working. They came and were able to replace the wiring and got the outlets to work. They also re-installed the outlet in the downstairs bathroom and was able to install a new light fixture in the upstairs bathroom. The last electrician we hired wasnâ t able to do any of these tasks. We had gone without electric in these areas for a while. Thank god for Angi. I was able to hire them through Angi and they did an awesome job. I will be keeping them in mind anytime I have electrical issues in the future!"
"I hired Chris from Sage Creek Electric to install a 220 line for my electric dryer. He was efficient, tidy, and quoted me a fair price in comparison to other companies I had received quotes from. The line was neatly installed way faster than expected, and fully functional. Plus he is a really nice guy! He was very professional and I’ve since recommended him to friends seeking an electrician."

"Construction R us did a total rehaul of the electrical on our house and they did a stellar job. I found them to be communicative and honest. It's sometimes hard to find pros who do work and who you can trust to give you an honest assessment but this company definitely fits that bill. They also did a great job working around our schedule.
Additionally they patched the dry wall after they were done and they did such a good job texture and colour matching we didn't even need to paint."

Crew arrived on promised date and installation went smoothly. Slight glitch regarding mistakenly not completely turning tankless water heater back on was immediately addressed by installation crew when notified. System functioning as advertised. Very pleased with Humidifier. Hope to have successful relationship with Albuquerque Plumbing in future."
Usually, a light switch goes bad due to normal wear and tear. Light switches are mechanical devices with internal moving parts. These parts make contact with each other, and, over time, the friction can wear them down, causing the switch to feel loose, arc, or fail to operate.
Amps describe the amount of energy that can flow through a circuit breaker. Every electrical device that’s attached to the breaker requires about 1.5 amps. While that equates to roughly 13 receptacles per 20 amps, using slightly fewer ensures that your circuit will always have enough energy for sudden power surges instead of tripping when one occurs. In general, 10 to 12 receptacles is recommended for a 20 amp circuit.
Simple moves on the same base or within a few feet will not take long, roughly three to four hours. Larger moves onto a new wall or transitioning a box from inside to outside will take 8 to 12 hours to complete. Ask your electrician for a time estimate prior to installation.
Upgrading your electrical system can save you money on your monthly utility bills by powering your home more efficiently. Electrification nonprofit Rewiring America estimates that a household could save $1,800 per year on energy bills by upgrading to a modern electric heat pump, switching to a heat pump for their water, installing solar panels on the roof, and converting to an electric vehicle.
If you’re wondering if you can use your electric vehicle as a backup battery, it depends on whether your EV is compatible with bidirectional charging. This technology allows energy to flow both ways, enabling vehicle-to-home (V2H) backup power, vehicle-to-load (V2L) for appliances and camping, and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) to support the power grid. Compatible EVs convert stored DC energy into usable AC power, helping reduce energy costs and enhance grid stability while providing emergency backup power.
