"I recently bought a house that had knob and tube wiring throughout. Rittner's Electric did the re-wiring. I highly recommend Dave Rittner and Rittner's Electric for your electric contractor and I would/will be using for my future electric work. A total house rewiring is not a one day job...it's a multiple week job. From the initial estimate thru all the work and up to the final inspection Dave was the total professional. Dave's pricing and estimates were fair and spot on, as was the amount of time needed to finish the project. I work out of my house and Dave's communication as to what he was planning on working for each particular day made it easy to plan out what/where I could work. Bottom line, if you need an electrician might as well get a top notch, professional and experienced one so, just call Dave Rittner."

"Mike and Trevor, of Freedom Electrical, upgraded my home electrical service from 100 Amp to 200 Amp service. Mike provided a cost proposal based on a site visit. He was professional, competent, and learned what my needs were. When I accepted the proposal and initiated work, Freedom Electrical provided me updates on when they would be to my home and that was based on when the electric company would be available to shut down the house electricity. They arrived in the early morning on the scheduled date and worked until the project was completed, about 8 hours. I visited each of them every couple of hours to see the progress, and ask questions. They both were happy to answer my questions. Everything went without a hitch and the new panel had wires run to circuit breakers that looked so organized it reminded me of the lines on a computer chip circuit board! They were able to run a bran new 240 volt 40 Amp circuit with 6 gauge wire from the new panel through my basement wall to the outside of my house and terminate the circuit at an 'emergency shutoff' box. The incoming service line and the new circuit had putty packed around the cables where they entered the house (to prevent insects / rodents from entering through the holes). Before the left the site, I was informed that an inspector would be coming by. Once the inspector arrived and noticed the 'Freedom Electrical' sticker on my new panel, he said something like 'oh yah, these guys make my job real easy - they do the best work I have ever seen'. I highly recommend Freedom Electrical for anything requiring a professional electrician."

"Excellent. Electrical work in a 120 year old house in not easy at best, its a real challenge that includes working in the old attic and basement. The fans are beautiful and both working as promised. They cleaned up after the job and worked steady the whole time they were here. Could not be more pleased and will use them again whenever I need electrical work done. Thanks!"

Electrical FAQs, answered by experts

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.

If you strictly adhere to electrical safety rules, including assuming that a circuit is hot until proven otherwise, and have some knowledge of how an electrical circuit works, you can likely replace a light switch by yourself without too much trouble. However, it's always advisable to call a nearby electrical pro to do the job if you're unsure of any steps necessary to change a light switch. 

Full home electrical inspections are mandatory if you’re buying a new home, but if you’re just looking for a safety checkup, you have some flexibility. If you don’t have any concerns and your property is relatively new, a basic inspection is usually sufficient. If it’s been a long time since your home was last inspected, or it’s an older home, a full home inspection can help catch any concerns that may fly under the radar.

No, wiring does not need to be redone to get a dimmer switch, as they work with single-pole and three-way switches. Just ensure you choose a dimmer that is compatible with your wiring, fixture, and lightbulbs. Most homes built after 1985 have neutral wiring and work with almost all dimmers. If your home was built before 1985 and you don’t have an updated electrical system, you may have to use a non-neutral wiring dimmer.

Hire an electrician the same way you would an employee. Ask questions and look for a good fit. Streamline the process by using these questions to ask an electrician. It's also common to ask for a quote in writing. Don’t forget to provide all the project details to ensure there are no surprises or opportunities for added fees.
