"I'm selling my house and needed a quick turn-around to get some electrical work done as required by the buyers' lender. It's only been a couple days since I posted my project on Angi and the work is already done. Safety Home Services contacted me right away to get my project on their schedule. Kevin arrived as scheduled and was very quick and thorough with the GFCI replacements and other items on my list. As a bonus, he identified and clearly labeled all the switches in my breaker box. I'm a very happy customer."

"It did not start out auspiciously.  I had originally called them up and requested that they schedule me for a Friday, any Friday, after 11 am (this was to give me time to get to the work site from my home, it is a rental property 75 miles distant). I didn't have a pressing requirement to get the work done soon, and I wanted to be present when they started to explain the scope of the work.  They assigned me a day about three weeks distant for an 11am appointment.  As I drove to meet them at about 9:30 on the appointed morning I got a call from my tenants at the work site, telling me that the electricians had already showed up!  I was not happy about this, and told them to direct the workmen to start on some of the simpler items.

The two men they sent were competent, and quickly wired up the bathroom fan.  However, I was disappointed to see that they used switches that didn't match the color of the other switches in the room - I had switches that would have matched the color, but I had not arrived yet.  They progressed through my punch list of items, and quickly accomplished everything but the three-way circuit.  This turned out to be a difficult problem; a previous tenant had started to re-wire the circuit, and stopped short of finishing the job.  As a result there were wires going to places through walls that could not be identified.  I went up in the attic to see the situation, and I could see that this was a nearly hopeless job to untangle without committing to opening up walls and running a completely new set of wires.

I decided to just get out of the way, and let them puzzle on it for a while.  To my surprise, they worked it out and got a three-way upstairs / downstairs light switch circuit working!  I was quite impressed by this bit of detective work!

On balance, my experience was a bit mixed.  The scheduling mixup really bothered me, and resulted in some things being done in a way that I would not have approved had I been on-site.  On the other hand, I admired their tenacity in getting that attic circuit figured out.

Would I hire again is a tricky question; I learned that I was paying their time to travel a fairly long distance compared to some electricians that were more local, so on the basis of cost alone it probably makes sense for me to use a different company."

"We hired Distinct Electric to do our new construction electrical. They did a fantastic job and helped us with great design ideas as well. The 6 or 7 employees I met during the construction process were all polite and professional. I am having them back out to install Generac generator in a month or so. Highly recommend."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Upgrading your electrical panel is often worth the cost for safety, improved electrical performance, and potential long-term savings. A primary benefit is preventing electrical fires and other hazards from a malfunctioning panel, ensuring your household's safety. An upgraded panel also provides a steady flow of electricity, eliminating issues like flickering lights and frequently tripped breakers. It allows you to connect additional appliances without overloading the system, which is especially beneficial for older homes with 100-amp service that are prone to overheating. If you run large appliances like central air conditioning, heating systems, hot tubs, or saunas, you might consider upgrading to a 300- or 400-amp service to meet the higher electrical demand. Furthermore, an upgrade can lead to long-term savings on energy bills and potentially lower insurance costs.

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.

If the outlet is a GFCI model, this is normal since these outlets have their own breakers that shut off when they encounter a problem—just hitting the reset button should solve the issue. Otherwise, the outlet could have bad wiring, or your circuit breaker could be having issues. If the issue started out of nowhere and is not on a GFCI outelt, it’s best to contact an electrician to diagnose the issue.

There are a few telltale signs that it’s time for a replacement. You should consider an upgrade if:

  • Your panel is over 25 years old

  • You’re adding a new electrical system

  • Your current system doesn’t offer the power you need

  • Your home is a jungle of power strips

If you need to run a wire from the meter to the breaker box, start by turning off the power using the main switch to avoid injury risks from live wires. Then, locate the ground wire from your meter and connect it to the ground bar of the breaker box. Connect the neutral wire using the same method to improve your circuit efficiency.

Next, locate the hot wires running from the main switch to the meter. To connect them to the correct terminals from meter to breaker, unscrew the nuts of the breaker hotwire terminals, insert the positive hotwire, and ensure it’s firmly attached. Finally, secure the wires with electrical tape and wire tie cables before re-securing your breaker box. Keep in mind that this process can be dangerous, so don’t hesitate to hire a local electrician.
