"They removed the bad pieces of trim and wood siding on my home. Then they covered the siding with Raindrop, water protective weather wrap, waterproofed around all my windows, custom cut and installed all the trim around the windows, doors, hose bibs, electrical outlets, and where the heat pump connections were. They installed new porch lights, replaced one window and added pipe to the hose connections. They installed all the siding and trim on my home. They kept the work site neat and picked up. They were professional and very friendly and did a wonderful job. Dave and Cody are an excellent team. I am so happy with the appearance of my home now and have gotten many compliments on great it looks now.  During the last big storm, we were so pleased with how it deadened the noise of the wind and the rain. I haven't had to turn on my heat yet because the house has stayed nice and warm. I am looking forward to a drop in my electric bill.  I would recommend the DaBella Exteriors company to anyone considering updating the exterior of their home. I absolutely love my new siding. Thank you RJ, for coming out and talking to us and explaining the pros and cons of your product, the benefits, the guarantee, taking your time to answer all my questions and for working with me. I appreciate all of you."

"I was contacted by a Tech at the assigned time and had to run to the store for a cable I needed. When I called back, I had a different Tech, but he was able to continue right where I had left off. There was no need to explain anything again. Awesome."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

How far you can run underground electric depends on the wire gauge (generally AWG) and the circuit voltage. Too much voltage drop in an electrical circuit can negatively affect performance, so the smaller the voltage drop, the better. Ideally, it shouldn't exceed 3%. The smaller the wire and the longer the run, the more significant the voltage drop. 

For example, with a 120-volt circuit, you can run 60 feet of 12 AWG cable without losing more than 3% voltage. With a 240-volt circuit, you can run 120 feet of 12 AWG wire while maintaining a voltage drop of 3% or less.

Black is the standard color for hot wires, which transfer electricity to your outlets and switches. Red wires are also hot wires. White (and sometimes gray) wires are considered neutral, delivering power back to the panel. Finally, green wires, which are sometimes bare copper, are ground wires, used to ground an electrical circuit and prevent electrocution.

To install an outlet from existing wiring, you’ll need to choose a location where you can already access existing wiring. The easiest way to do this is to install an outlet on the other side of the wall of an existing outlet. 

Since the wiring is already in place, all you have to do is connect a new cable to the existing wiring and then connect the correct wires through the wall—to the new electrical outlet. Place your new outlet into the opening in the wall and then connect the correct wires to the appropriate terminal screws.

No, there aren’t additional code requirements for kitchen lights. Kitchen lights and other electrical circuits in the kitchen have different code requirements. Outlets need to be particularly robust because of their frequency of use and proximity to liquids. If you need help determining where to install outlets in your kitchen, consult a local electrician who can ensure that placement is functional and up to code.

Provided you leave the switch in the off position, your broken bulb shouldn’t be drawing any power. However, there’s always the risk that the switch is turned on by accident, potentially causing electrical damage or even a fire. Plus, broken glass in the home is never ideal. For safety, it’s a good idea to remove broken bulbs as soon as possible. If you’re in doubt, a local lighting professional can help you remove the bulb safely and quickly.
