"Despite a -12 windchill, Kevin and Jose sent a notice 30 minutes before their arrival and got to work immediately. They were both extremely courteous, professional, knowledgeable, and industrious. The project was extensive but they managed to keep power interruptions to an absolute minimum. Considering that the generator project required work involving gas, electric, and internet, their presence in our small house went almost unnoticed. I would absolutely recommend them. Great work!"

"When the Satellite TV tech came down from the roof, he said that my Lightning Rod installation was the best & neatest he had ever seen before. I then fully realized what a great job this company had done. He had worked a very long day, just to get the Lightning Protection installation completed on both my 2-story house and my 3-stall barn. He took the time to explain what he had done. I felt that for the cost of my Insurance Deductable, I saved myself the hassle of dealing with the aftermath of a Lightning strike. Insurance does NOT replace family heirlooms. I feel that I am fully prepared for North Texas weather. Would highly recommend Donohue's if you want to have peace of mind when Mother Nature gets nasty."

"Jeff has done a great job diagnosing the problem and providing options for the solution. We had to replace the breaker box and some wiring so this old house can continue providing electricity. He seems to know a lot about electrical stuff and has been very helpful. Would definitely hire again and recommend him to others."

"1) Quality: During his first visit Court began with a careful examination of our house and the pond that now provides heat in winter and air conditioning in summer. He walked through the basement examining the current installations and then came to the dining room to discuss his ideas. He had a large volume of pictures from many previous geothermal installations, some very much like ours. There is a quiet professionalism to Court that is so much better than salesmanship. His final design includes extra protections, and elegant features. For instance, this winter the furnace heats all our domestic hot water with otherwise wasted heat generated by the compressor. The house remains quietly at our set temperature regardless of the weather outside, hot or cold. 2) Customer Service: Court is always available on email or phone when I have questions. He and his partner came to tweak the system last week and spent time carefully correcting all the many adjustments available on a geothermal installation. 3) Value for money: I don't know what other firms would charge. Court has emphasized all along the federal tax rebates and electric company rebate, the services that will automatically arrive because of this system. He accurately predicted the overall savings this system brings compared to our oil and coal furnaces. I was amazed in the end how reasonable our total bill was for such a large installation. 4) Overall Impression: Court and his partner are professionals who know precisely what they are doing and get it done. I couldn't be happier with this heating-cooling pond-thermal system and the process that brought it to us."

"I hired Surtr Construction for electrical at a building I had purchased. They did 2 panel upgrades 200A services and wired 6 office spaces. Work was phenomenal. They had all proper permits ready to go prior to job starting. Code inspector had no issues after work was completed. Will be using then for all Remodel, Electrical projects in future."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Incorrectly wiring a single-pole switch results in the connected light or device not turning on or tripping the circuit breaker. Although it doesn't matter which terminal the hot wire and the load wire connect to, mixing up a circuit wire with a ground or having loose connections can prevent the switch from working. 

You should always turn off a breaker whenever electrical work is being done. This step can prevent electrical shock and injury. Also, if a breaker is repeatedly tripping, it can mean there is an electrical overload, and it should be shut off. You should contact an electrician to figure out the cause. Make sure to review how to turn off your circuit breaker safely if you do it yourself, and follow safety precautions to avoid severe injuries.

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.

If you’re outlet isn’t working but the breaker isn’t tripped , that could mean a number of things. First, check if it’s a GFCI outlet, which has added protection so your breakers don’t malfunction. If that’s the case, simply hit the outlet's reset button and see if it works. If it doesn’t, or you don’t have a GFCI outlet, you might have a loose outlet or loose wiring, a damaged breaker, or an overloaded circuit, which would require a dedicated breaker. It’s best to consult with an electrician to diagnose the problem accurately.

The best light switch is user dependent. What works for one person might not work for another. Someone looking to ward off burglars may choose to install proximity light switches or anti-vandal switches, while someone who simply wants to find the switch in the bathroom without using a nightlight may prefer an illuminated light switch. Consider the location of your light switch and the features you want to help you decide on the right light switch for your home.
