"We had an excellent experience with Awesome Electrical Services updating our historic home from outdated knob-and-tube wiring to a modern electrical system. Brian was incredibly communicative, taking the time to discuss the project, timeline, and costs while patiently answering all of our questions. Patty was wonderful, making scheduling, paperwork, and communication easy and efficient. Their entire crew was knowledgeable, professional, courteous, and respectful. JR and Nick were exceptional foremen who went above and beyond to keep the project on track and ensure every detail was addressed. We'd also like to thank Mike, Julian, Trey, and Chris for their professionalism and craftsmanship. Rewiring an older home is a major undertaking, but they made the process smooth and stress-free. We highly recommend Awesome Electrical Services, especially for owners of older homes."

"Rich was excellent he was knowledgeable and efficient and fair-minded and his pricing. I would strongly recommend him to anyone for both electrical work and the minor changes to a generator. He solved two other small electrical problems for me that were wiring oriented."

"Warren & his “team” at Goodside Electric did a superb job! Warren was very thoughtful in assessing my needs, converting a fuse box to a breaker panel. He explained what my options were. Then, he systematically approached the task, completing it in a very timely and thorough manner. I’m extremely satisfied with Goodside Electric and will add them to my roster of repair men! They are “top flight!”"

"Prodigy was very responsive and was able to install a new electric box within 1 day when the power was continuously going out in my home. The new main breaker and panel box fixed my issue and we were grateful that Prodigy was able to fit us in within 24 hours of the request! Great customer service."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Yes, tamper-resistant outlets are designed to be safe for use in homes with children. They feature a spring-loaded shutter that blocks the electrical slots when not in use, which helps protect children from electric shock if they try to insert an object. While they are the safest option available and highly effective, it's important to note that few things are truly 'childproof.' Children may still try to imitate adults by inserting a plug. For this reason, it's best to use tamper-resistant outlets over less effective solutions like plastic covers, which can be removed or pose a choking hazard. Always supervise young children around any electrical outlets or devices.

Yes, splicing wires can cause a fire if the splicing is done incorrectly. This is why splicing wires is a task best handled by electricians. One of the most common mistakes made when splicing wires is not using a wire connector. Without a wire connector, electricity flows unsheathed and can result in a home electrical fire.

Unless you have prior electrical experience, it’s best to hire a professional to install your new thermostat for you. Improper installation can damage wiring, lead to a blown fuse, and more.

No, not all thermostats require a C-wire. Older manual and programmable thermostats typically do not need one. While many smart thermostats do require a C-wire to function correctly, some models can operate without one, often at the expense of certain features. A C-wire provides a constant source of power, which enables the thermostat to stay connected to Wi-Fi and keep its display screen lit on-demand. If you are upgrading from an older thermostat to a smart model that requires a C-wire, you may need to install one first for it to work as intended.

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.
