"This is the 2nd time I have used Safe Electric and both times I have used them have been great experiences. I had 3 new fixtures installed plus a new circuit run to be used for a new freezer in our finished basement. Jon & Eric were the two electricians that were sent to my home. They worked efficiently and quickly, but did outstanding work. Even though our basement had a finished ceiling, they were able to run a wire through with minimal disruption to the finished ceiling. I had concerns about the alignment of the lights on the fixture (this was a manufacturing defect and nothing to do with their installation) and they obliged me by improving the light alignment. They also cleaned up after they were completed and disposed of the old light fixtures and packaging materials for the new fixtures. Their work was excellent. The only negative aspect was the price which seemed very high to me. The cost for installation of the 3 light fixtures was $462 and the new circuit was $903."

"I recently had Mosby Electric perform an electrical installation on 8-14-2026, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the service. From the moment I called, their team demonstrated fast arrival and professionalism. The electricians were highly knowledgeable, completing the installation efficiently and with great attention to detail. Their expertise made the entire process smooth and stress-free. I truly appreciate the quality of their work and the respect they showed for my home. I gladly give Mosby Electric 5 out of 5 stars and highly recommend them to anyone in need of electrical services."

"The Safe Electric guys are great. Craig took the time to explain what needed to be done and why and how they would do it. Although they had to diagnose and repair unexpected wiring issues, they did not charge me any more than the original estimate, and they worked over the weekend to finish the job on time."

"I recently moved into a new home with some electrical issues, and I had been searching for an electrician for several weeks.  I interviewed dozens of electricians and could not find anyone that felt right for me and that I could trust.  I had several issues in the home, the first of which I wanted to tackle was the panel and service.
I saw an Angie's list deal and contacted Jeremy.  He responded right away.  He came out the same day to look at the panel and had his team out that same week to complete the work.  He was the most responsive and most thorough of the 10+ electricians I received quotes from or talked to.  He is not only an excellent electrician but is also a superior communicator and highly responsive.
All of the other electricians I spoke with were anywhere from 4+ to 8+ weeks out with work and frequently did not bother getting back with me on quotes or questions.  Jeremy was no more than 2 weeks out and always responded when I had a question or concern.
As for the work done, I was very impressed with the quality of work that Jeremy and his team did.  I will be using Undefined Heights for all of my future electrical needs, and I suggest you do the same.  Jeremy and his team get an A+ in my book.  Thanks Jeremy!

Electrical questions, answered by experts

In Columbus, homeowners often overlook permit requirements, underestimate the scope of rewiring, or hire unlicensed contractors. Failing to coordinate electrical work with other renovations can cause delays and extra costs. Ignoring seasonal weather when scheduling outdoor projects or missing unique historic district rules can also create setbacks. Always shut off power before starting work and ensure proper grounding and GFCI protection for safety.

Helpful?

In Columbus, electrical project timelines vary by complexity. Simple circuit installations or adding outlets often finish in less than a day. Panel upgrades typically require 1–2 days, while whole-house rewiring can take 3–7 days, especially in older homes. Permit approval and weather conditions, particularly for outdoor work, may extend the timeline, so plan for possible delays during busy seasons or inclement weather.

Helpful?

Your Columbus home may benefit from electrical upgrades if you notice frequent breaker trips, flickering lights, or still have two-prong outlets. Homes built before 1960 often require rewiring or panel upgrades to meet modern safety standards. If you rely on extension cords or lack GFCI outlets in key areas, consider improvements—especially if you plan to add appliances, install EV chargers, or update lighting.

Helpful?

When planning electrical projects in Columbus, consider local code updates, permit requirements, and the timing of inspections, especially if your project involves rewiring or circuit installation. Harsh winters can delay outdoor electrical work, so schedule accordingly. If your home is in a historic district or near flood zones, anticipate extra steps for compliance. Neighborhood association rules and utility company policies may also impact your project’s timeline and scope.

Helpful?

Combining electrical work with other home upgrades in Columbus can streamline your renovation and minimize disruptions. For example, if you’re remodeling a kitchen or finishing a basement, coordinate panel upgrades or rewiring at the same time. This approach often reduces the need for multiple inspections and can help future-proof your home for additions like EV charging stations or smart home systems, making the process more efficient overall.
