"I needed my sump pump replaced, wanted to add a water pressure back up system and had them install a new garbage disposal that I had purchased myself. I had installed our previous disposal myself but I figured they were already coming so I would have them install the new disposal. First of all, the work was excellent. My main problem was with the cost. When I questioned the high rates, $285 to install the disposal and $542 for a new sump pump and installation, I was told that they have pricing set by "job" not by actual time necessary. That was the least expensive model of sump pumps. Another model was $300 more. The backup sump pump would have to be done on another day so it was not even considered at the time, although the prices of the other jobs made me concerned that it was also over priced. Since you are charged a fee for having them show up at the door I decided to have them do the work but I had a feeling the jobs would not take more than an hour. They had two plumbers, one was experienced, and the other one seemed to be learning on the job. Either way, each one was done within an hour. In hindsight I should have trusted my instincts and paid the mandatory "visit" fee and hired another company. If you take the cost of the pump out of the equation I paid $285/hr and $392/hr respectively more than double the highest national average. I will never use this company again because they are taking advantage of people. I would highly recommend that you get some estimates before they show up... don't get charged a flat rate for simple jobs. Don't be afraid to say no and hire another company."

"We hired Marcus to fix lights in the basement, transformer for a doorbell and a ceiling fan. Some how now the only thing working is the outlet in the kitchen.

FAQs for electrical service projects in Buffalo, NY

It’s important to ask an electrician a few questions before you commit to hiring them so you can make an informed decision as a consumer. If you’re getting estimates or considering hiring an electrician, ask them these questions:

  • Are you a full-time electrician?

  • Are you bonded, licensed, and insured?

  • What level of experience do you have as an electrician?

  • Can you please share three references?

  • Do you do residential or commercial electrical work?

  • What kinds of electrical work are you most familiar with?

  • Will any subcontractors be performing the work?

  • Are permits and inspections required?

  • Who is responsible for obtaining permits and inspections?

  • What is your schedule?

  • Do you offer a guarantee or warranty on your work?

  • Will you sign a do-not-exceed clause to keep the job within the budget?

Tipping an electrician is not a requirement nor is it expected, as they build a fair wage into the price of the job. It’s up to your discretion. There are no set rules for tipping electricians, but if they did a great job and you’re so inclined to tip 10% to 15%, it will likely be received with thanks.

Yes, you should get a quote or an estimate from an electrician. Most electricians offer free estimates or quotes. When getting quotes, do your research and verify each electrician’s license. Get quotes from three different electricians to compare. If the prices or items listed appear different on the quotes, ask the electrician to clarify. Learning as much as you can about the electrical work you want done will help you get the most accurate estimate. 

Qualified, licensed electricians will charge from $50 to $100 per hour. The cost to hire an electrician for emergency visits may range from $100 to $200 per hour because this urgent service usually takes place during off hours and may require an electrician to leave or reschedule jobs they’re currently working on. Scheduling work on holidays or during periods of high customer demand, like after a major storm, will also lead to higher rates or extra fees.

Yes, although there are different types of electricians, they must be licensed, certified, and in most cases insured. States have different requirements for electrician licensing and certifications. In some cases, there may be licensing requirements at the local level, but not the state level. It’s always a good practice to confirm requirements with your local municipality. If licensing is not required in your area, you may pay more for a licensed electrician with experience than one who is not licensed or certified, but you’re likely to get a better end result for your project.

As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include: 

  • The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check

  • Required to have applicable state and local licenses

  • Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review

  • Paying to advertise their services

  • Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi

Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
