"Ryan is an excellent electrician. We asked him to change a switch for bathroom light. He was able to fix potentially dangerous wiring and replace the switch. He also replaced two wall sconces. He is careful and meticulous in his approach to any job. He has done many jobs at our home that other electrical services did not fix. I would reckon highly"

"I found Patterson Electric on Angi, and Mr. Patterson contacted me promptly the next day. I live in an older home that had started to develop electrical issues. Mr. Patterson worked dillegently to not only diagnose the main problem, but took the initiative to fix some minor issues he found along the way. I felt his prices were very reasonable for the work performed."

Using enough wire to rework in the future.
Installed ground up to match other home outlets. (It makes zero difference other that looks, I always match the house.)

"We were very impressed with the service we received from the Electrician we secured from I-ReM Electric. He was very personable, professional and knowledgeable about the work that needed to be done, taking time to explain things with expertise, confidence and detail. We have since secured him for an additional project. We highly recommend I-ReM Electric."

"G and W Electric. Talk about dedicated to his business and his customers. After coming to my business and checking out our needs. He put together a plan to replace my whole electrical service at our Laundromat/carwash. This was by no means a cakewalk. My concerns were how long will my business be shut down. G&W assured me he would stay and work until the job was done. Well he sure did. He showed up at 2 in the afternoon and began working. He actually worked 24 hours straight and had the brand new service completed at 2 the next afternoon. Now that is dedication to his customer. Will i have him back in the future? Hell yes. We talked about a generator for our building and will see what comes of that. But as far as work ethic goes. He and his company are top notch and I recommend him to anyone that needs electrical work done. Apparently no job is too big for this company."

"Quality work! Frank came out for three jobs.. Two electrical jobs and one outdoor project. 1) installed new lights in my basement and moved the switches to a more logical location. 2) removed an old lamp post outside and shut off the electrical lines that ran to it. When my wife and I decide what kind of lighting we want outside, we will be hiring him again for the install. 3) removed several small-medium boulders from the property. Also moved a large pile of scrap wood to our burn pile (would have taken me hours). Highly recommended for general handyman work and/or small tractor work outside."

"Alex was awesome! He took the time to do the project right but also didn’t waste time. He was nice to my pets and myself and not a problem to have in my home. I plan to use him again for some other electrical projects and will also recommend him to others!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

A ceiling light will usually have two or three wires: black, white, and sometimes green. Black wires are positive, or hot, while white wires are negative, or neutral. The green wire is the grounding wire. 

When you’re wiring the light, connect black to black, white to white, and green to the grounding screw.

A C-wire connects your thermostat to your household heating and cooling system to provide continuous 24V power. The furnace's transformer converts household electrical current into this low-voltage power to operate the HVAC system's circuitry. In most configurations, the C-wire connects to the terminals labeled "C" on both the furnace's low-voltage terminal block and the thermostat. In some cases, if a dedicated C terminal is unavailable, the C-wire can be connected to the "G" (fan) terminal at the furnace.

It is safe to run a generator continuously, but you must follow safety protocols to ensure personal and home safety. Read the manufacturer’s instructions for specific recommendations, but the general recommendation is to turn generators off overnight or when you’re away from the house. Overworked generators can pose a fire hazard and if your generator is not in a well-ventilated area, running it continuously could lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.

It’s not a good idea to mix LED and incandescent Christmas lights if you can avoid it. LEDs and incandescents can have significantly different electrical current needs. This difference can lead to a higher risk of problems and failure for both light strands. When possible, switch all your lights over to one kind or the other for the best results. Do not connect the different types of light strings to each other, and avoid linking them to the same circuit. 

Yes, a hot or overheating outlet is a fire hazard and can cause a fire. An outlet becoming hot indicates an electrical problem, such as an overloaded circuit, loose connections, or a faulty component. The heat from these issues can ignite nearby flammable materials like curtains or furniture. If you notice an outlet is hot to the touch, turn off the power at the circuit breaker, unplug any connected devices, and consult a qualified electrician. If a fire does start, use a Class C fire extinguisher or baking soda to suppress it, or evacuate immediately and call the fire department.
