"All Electric did everything right. They called within 30 minutes of my HomeAdvisor request, and were able to come to do the quote within 48 hours. The work was scheduled the following week and Monte showed up right on time and finished the work (installing a 240V line and upgrading my breaker box) in just over 90 minutes. I would have no reservations about using All Electric again or recommending them to a friend."

"I highly recommend Paragon Electric. Clint, the owner, was very responsive with calls and texts prior to the service call, and was thorough and knowledgeable. He explained his analysis of the electrical problem beautifully, answered questions and utilized his time well within the service call period, which included a run to a local store for an atypical breaker. Thanks Clint!"

"Helped solve a problem with our cameras not working in our home surveillance system. His quote was more reasonable than another quote but then Don called later with another possible solution that worked after I agreed to try it. It did and he saved me a huge amount of money. I would use his service again and recommend him to others. He was timely, courteous and friendly, plus he was honest enough to not try to gouge me for more money than was necessary to fix the problem. Thank you Don."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Daisy-chaining refers to placing multiple GFCI outlets in a row along the same circuit. This won’t do any harm, but it’s of limited usefulness because a properly-placed GFCI can monitor all downstream outlets on its own. Multiple GFCI installations won’t usually increase safety except in special cases.

The National Electrical Codebook indicates that there should be at least 6 inches of wiring in the breaker box for connecting purposes. When in doubt, err on the side more, because you can always cut some wire off but you can never add it back on, and if you don’t have enough you may struggle to finish wiring your breaker box properly.

Yes, in a new home, ground wires are mandatory. Some older homes may not be grounded, but if you decide to renovate, you will need to have your electricity grounded at that time. Remember, grounding helps keep everyone in your home safe from sudden electrical surges. It’s best to hire an electrician to inspect and work with your home’s wiring.

Rewiring projects cost anywhere between $1,500 and $10,000 on average, depending on the complexity and the size of the rewiring. You can anticipate spending between $2 and $4 per square foot of wire, including labor and materials. Wire material ranges from $0.25 to $1.60 per linear foot.

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.
