"Once I called, they quickly sent someone out to give me an estimate. They answered all my questions and informed me of how they would tackle the work. The estimate I received was nearly 1/3 less than a competitors work, and I liked that they would not be running any wires outside my house. The most "damage" there would be would be a small hole in my dining room ceiling to run wire up to an outlet upstairs. It took about 3 weeks, to get the job scheduled, but all along the company was informative (they were going to be a little later than anticipated the day of the work) and professional. The technician Joseph G and his assistant were amazing! Again, answering any questions I had the day of and the best part is, they didn't even need to make a whole in the ceiling. These electrical magicians were able to run the wire up and through the wall to the upstairs outlet. Needless to say, I would hire CW Electrical again in a heartbeat."

"Brian and his crew, did a great job, and knows what needs to be done the right way. Even the county electrical inspector gave Brain and his crew at Awesome Electric compliments and props! I would recommend they to everyone and I will hire them for all my electrical work. When they were finished with the job, they cleaned up everything too"

"The Electrician called me immediately after I filled out the form on Service Magic. He was able to come and replace a bad switch i had within three hours of my having spoken with him. He was polite, professional and finished the job quickly and at an excellent price. I was very happy with the speed and quality of the service and would definitely use BN Electric again."

"Excellent! George was able to schedule me the day I called, identified the issues and solved one of the failures, identified the non-electrical root of the other. He explained what was going wrong, which I much appreciate. I've been needing to have a reliable electric repair service. I found one and he will be the first I call next time there is a problem!"

"My experience with Livewire was perfect. They contacted me quickly after I visited Home Advisor, they showed up for the estimate on time, and they were equally punctual when they performed the service. I would highly recommend Livewire to anyone seeking electrical work in their home."

"Working with BabyBird Electric has been an all around great experience. Rick is very knowledgable and explains in detail the work that is going to be preformed. We bought an older home with electric wiring of just about every type back to knob and tube. The work was extensive and Rick has walked us through each step with consideration for safety, cost, and aesthetics. The work included install of a new upgraded service, and essentially a rewire of the entire home. With other renovations underway and the serious challenge of solid brick walls, Rick has creatively solved problems and greatly improved the quality of our home. If you appreciate excellent customer service, high quality work, and the the personal touch of a family run business you won't be disappointed with BabyBird. We highly recommend."

"We hired Price Light Electric to investigate why a few of our outlets had stopped working. Our house is wired in a strange way from when it was built, but Paul's guys were able to track down the issue. They were very nice and punctual. They took their time finding the problem and coming up with the solution. Much to our surprise, since it was a small job, they were able to complete the work that day. I was able to text Paul to schedule which was very convenient, and he got back to me very quickly! We had an incredible experience with Price Light Electric, and would absolutely recommend them to anyone who is in need of an electrician."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

If a light switch is off, it’s very unlikely to cause a fire. For a fire to start, the switch has to be on, activating an electrical current, and the wiring must be faulty. However, the malfunctioning light switch could cause an intermittent current to move across the electrical wire. This issue could become a fire hazard with another device connected to the wire. You should replace the bad light switch as soon as you notice it or call an electrician.

An estimate for electrical work should include an estimated number and an estimated price to complete the work. An electrical estimate should also include a description of the services to be provided as well as the materials to be used, such as wiring, switches, panels, or other items, and the cost for those materials. If any tax is charged, that should appear on the estimate, too. Some estimates may include additional options that can be added to the base price of the quoted job if the customer chooses to go ahead with the add-ons.

Unless you’re a licensed electrician, you should not DIY any electrical work in your home. Working with wires and electricity is potentially dangerous to both you and the structure you’re working on, and it could lead to house fires or electric shock if you’re not 100% sure what you’re doing. There’s a big difference between changing a light switch cover and rewiring an entire home. If you’re staring down a potentially difficult electrical job, give a pro a call.

A small sump pump running infrequently uses an average of 10 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity per month. The average cost for electricity is $0.171 per kWh. The size and use frequency affect how much electricity it uses. Sump pumps average one-third to one horsepower (hp) motors. One hp is equal to 745.7 watts. Watts multiplied by the time your pump is running divided by 1,000 equals your average kWh. Multiply kWh by your average cost of electricity. In areas with high rain or a marsh basin, the average cost can be as high as $15-$25 a month.

Most electric water heaters have a built-in shut-off switch, so you can simply turn that to the OFF position. Some water heaters have the switch inside a panel, so you might need to unscrew the panel, remove it, move aside the insulation, and then shut the water heater off. To make sure it’s off, you can also locate the switch for your water heater in your electrical panel and shut the power off there. Most electrical panels have dedicated switches for the water heater, so you can shut off the power without affecting the rest of your home.
