"I would recommend Mr. Paul of TPaul Electric to anyone in need of a knowledgeable, skilled electrician. He replaced an outlet for me (on a holiday!). He was punctual and courteous. The job was done expertly. He explained everything in layman terms so that I could understand. He was quick and cleaned up after himself. I am very satisfied with his work and will call him again for any electrical need."

"My experience with PK and Altman Electric was excellent. From my initial contact with Elizabeth in the main office to the service that was provided by Raphael and Omar, the staff was professional, polite, and punctual. I called on a Tuesday, and Elizabeth scheduled me in for Wednesday! And Raphael and Omar arrived an hour early. Before starting, Raphael reviewed a TO DO LIST with me. A ceiling fan and two outlets, including a GFI and light fixture, were either replaced or serviced. Pricing is competitive. Very pleased and would highly recommend."

"I highly recommend Simply Electric for any electrical work, especially panel installations. Gerry recently replaced my old, outdated electric panel with a new one, and the quality of work was exceptional. From the initial estimate, he was professional, punctual, and very transparent about the process. He took the time to explain the process and what to expect. . I now have total peace of mind knowing the work was done correctly and up to code. I will definitely be using him for future electrical needs!"

"I had a great experience with Solaris Electrical! Semir personally came to my home and did an excellent job. He responded to my posting very quickly and came the next day to install a 240 V (Level 2) outlet for my EV charger in the garage. He also upgraded my existing electrical panel and completed everything quickly, precisely, and with outstanding quality. The work was done neatly and professionally — no mess, no delays, and everything works perfectly. I’m very happy with the result and will definitely use Solaris Electrical again for future electrical projects. Highly recommend this company — Semir is professional, efficient, and reliable!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Smoke detectors come in two different options: hardwired or battery-operated. While hardwired units are attached directly to the home’s electrical system, a battery-operated smoke detector only needs a simple battery for operation and can be placed virtually anywhere in your home. Some homeowners may mistakenly think their battery-operated units are hardwired in because all their units are interconnected, but many battery-operated units can operate within a smoke alarm network in your home.

The average radon mitigation system uses about 876 kWh of electricity per year, although the exact amount of electricity used will vary depending on the size of the radon fan. Once the system is installed, the annual increase to your energy bill could range from $30 to $300 per year, again depending on the size of the fan.

Yes, an electrical fire can start even if nothing is plugged into an outlet. While a correctly functioning outlet poses no risk, a fire can be caused by faulty wiring, damaged outlet components, an overloaded circuit, or other electrical problems hidden behind the walls. If you suspect a fault, immediately turn off the circuit breaker and contact a professional electrician to diagnose and repair the issue.

At a minimum, you need an electrician to inspect the house wiring after a fire. The electrician will need to replace damaged or melted wires. If the electrical wiring is old, about 25 years or more, you should rewire the house after a fire. Old wiring can increase the risk of another fire, so replacing the wires is the safest option.

If the electrical wires you’re working with are too short, one of the easiest ways to elongate it is to extend them with a push-in connector. These user-friendly tools help you splice two wires together with little fuss or the need for extra tools, like a crimping tool, which is an older way of extending wires. As long as you can stripe the ends of a wire, using a push-in connector shouldn’t be an issue.
