"The provider came to give estimate for the emergency situation we were in for water leaking into electric panel box from electric pole attached to house outside. The provider suggested we upgrade Panel Box from 100amp service to 200amp service since box had to be changed anyway. The estimate was $400 higher than the other estimate we got from another ANGI electrician at $3100 but the provider could come the next day to complete job. Where the other electrian could not do the job for 4 days out. Provider stated that he doesnt accept credit cards or do financing so I told him "no thank you" to the job, as this was an emergency and didnt have cash to pay him. After Provider left he called back stating he could use an associate of his credit billing account so he can do the job. The provider NEVER mentioned getting PERMITS AND A UNDERWRITERS CERTIFICATE for us to upgrade the AMP service to our home. I hired this provider From ANGI believing he was a vetted Professional and we would have all proper services done including any and all paperwork involved especially that he was charging more for the job. After job was completed he still had no credit card available and was mad that I didnt have all cash. I was dumbfounded as he stated that he had access to a credit terminal. I gave him a Check for $1600 and a $100 bill Which then he gave me an invoice that had no Electrical License listed or any type of insurance listed. I had to actually call Suffolk County NY to find out if he actually had a license and insurance which I wrote down on attached file. Provider stated he had to get in touch for the credit. He called later with a link for PAYPAL for me to pay $1300 that I owed him which I paid asap. The provider then had to come back because he didnt attach our Oil Burner to the new Circuit Panel Box and it was freezing inside our home. He then approached me while my husband was still in the basement getting the oil burner started and was demanding another $100 because PAYPAL charged him FEES. I said bluntly "NO" and he started billigerently YELLING at me "YOU WANT ME TO EAT IT???" over and over. He left Slamming my front door while screaming outside extremely loud "SHE WANTS ME TO EAT IT???" meaning the extra $100. I called PAYPAL to ask about the tranaction and Payplal stated that he had to agree to their terms and fees which are on the business owners' and not the customers responsibility. He was very scary and I was afraid of him and was afraid he was going to retaliate against us some way. The PERMIT and UNDERWRITERS CERTIFICATE MUST BE FILED AND DELIVERED TO US as we only found out that this was MANDATORY by an Electrical Contractor that my daughter was hiring for same service."

"Shaun and his guys worked at my house for over a 6 month time period due to a large leak that caused my 2 bathrooms, kitchen and basement to be ripped out. Throughout the entire process he made sure to show up with his guys and walk both my husband and I through what we wanted done and how they were going to do the work. All of the guys that he had work for him were respectful and cleaned up after themselves. They were always on time and also they were very good with my German Shepard puppy who it was not always to keep in contained areas. Throughout the project we kept adding more things on and the whole team was absolutely amazing and always doubled checked with us for all the changes we would make and make sure it was to our satisfaction. I would highly highly recommend this company to anyone and everyone. If you want someone that will answer the phone and be there when things are rough this is the company for you! I don't know what we would have done without Shauns guidance and help throughout this entire process."

"This was the worst experience i have ever had with a company. They came and damaged my house and kept us without AC for days. They admitted to the extensive damage and went weeks before attempting to repair it. The services were never fully completed and they were paid over 90% of the job. I disputed the last 10% and provided overwhelming evidence of their negligence. And after a year their last ditch effort was to send collections letters. Don't walk, RUN from this company. I will provide pics and my my experience to anyone who is planning on using this company. Used to be family owned and was amazing. Second they sold it went downhill fast."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Yes, standard dimmer switches should never be used to control a ceiling fan motor. They’re designed for lighting, not motors, and they can cause humming, overheating, or permanent damage. You should only use switches that are specifically labeled for fan speed control.

You can reset a breaker several times, but it’s bad for the breaker. Resetting the breaker too many times in a short period can make it overheat and cause damage. That’s in addition to the damage that the multiple overloads do to the circuit. If a breaker is tripping every few minutes, it’s far better to leave it off and call an electrician for an inspection. This also decreases the chances that a short circuit or other issue could cause an electrical fire.

An electrician will charge between $100 to $150 to install a new light switch. Whether you need to cut into the wall and repair drywall will determine your final project cost, as you can expect to pay $50 to $75 per square foot to repair drywall.

You can use both LED and incandescent bulbs in an incandescent fixture as long as the bulb base is the right size. Never use a higher wattage than what the fixture recommends. However, it’s usually safe when transitioning to LED bulbs because they typically have a lower wattage than their incandescent counterparts.

Typically, when a 3-way switch only works when one switch is on, this is one of the most telltale indicators that the switch has gone bad (although this could also be the result of faulty or loose wiring). To diagnose the issue, toggle each switch until the light comes on. Once it’s on, toggle each switch separately again; the switch that doesn’t turn the light off is the bad switch.
