"Great family run electrical company with highly trained and professional technicians! William is very friendly and a pleasure to be around! He helped me install lights, chandeliers and dimmers throughout my home. Definitely the best electrician in the area!"
"Anthony showed up promptly at 8:30 AM as scheduled Went right to work installing outside receptacle and installing covers on two existing outdoor receptacles, He then installed a bedroom ceiling fan.. Anthony was professional, polite,friendly, and does excellent work. We plan to have him return in the near future to install recessed lighting in tow rooms.
"Dan and his son Tyler did an outstanding job. The basement was broken up in separate spaces including a 22' by 7' area which will double as a plant room during the winter time. He installed a counter and sink in this space and added a floor to ceiling built in bookshelf. To close off this area from the main space, he also installed a barn door which looks great. In the main area the work was done to perfection. The bathroom is a little jewel and we could not be happier with the work that was done. Dan and Tyler also went above and beyond when they moved furniture from the main floor to the basement and also put up additional shelves for us. I told Dan to pencil us in for the same time next year to update our main bathroom!"
"Alex provided help with the process of ordering the cabinets and getting everthing set up The cabinets arrived on time.The job was started the day that he promised me and the workers did an excellent job The only thing that went wrong was that a order for a light was Messed up which was the fault of the lighting provider"
"Mike from Power Man Electric was the best! My wife and I just moved into a new home and needed a microwave installed above our oven range. Unfortunately, we didn't have an outlet nearby so we enlisted the help of Mike and he had the install done in less than 2 hours. He was as flexible as possible with his scheduling (even offered a weekend time) and couldn't have been more courteous and safe when in our home. I already plan on calling him again for our next electrical renovation and would recommend him to anyone."
"Kenny was a true pleasure to work with from start to finish. From the beginning communication of our desired look and result, to the finished product, Kenny provided advice on our remodel project but never told us what to do or tried to re-direct us. He arrived exactly on time each day, and works extremely fast, quietly, and efficiently. He demo'd our entire master bathroom and we barely ever heard him do it. I really can't say enough good things about the results Kenny provided in our home. Our bathroom looks straight out of a 5-star hotel and was very reasonably priced. His estimate was pretty much spot on. We got most of our materials from Home Depot and Overstock.com and he installed them - which is what we were looking for. We will be having Kenny back soon to do our dining room floor as well, and eventually our Kitchen. Give Kenny a call for your next project. You will be amazed at his punctuality, professionalism, and most importantly, the final result! "
"I purchased a deal for 2 hrs of carpentry a few years ago but never used it. I found it while I was getting new granite for the kitchen last year. I called to ask if he would install brackets to support the granite and use the old voucher as payment and he did. What a nice, stand up, honest guy. I HIGHLY recommend Jeff."
"Seamless professional work in a timely manner. The ceiling fans were complex to program on their own so Mike contacted the vendor and synced them up quickly. He did other work including an attic fan and much more. I have referred Mike to many of my Real Estate clients and he always comes through with exceptional results."
"The overall experience with AJWDS was excellent with pricing, service, and installation. Would not hesitate to use their services again. The installation crew was efficient and completed the project much quicker that I anticipated knowing the pending weather constraints."
Chandelier Installation questions, answered by experts
For every foot of ceiling height, your chandelier should have two to three inches of height. To calculate the width of the ideal chandelier, determine the width and length of the room.
Add these two numbers together and that is the number of inches wide your chandelier should be. For example, if your room is 15 feet wide and 15 feet tall, you will need a chandelier that is 30 inches wide.
It’s possible to remove a new construction recessed light without getting into your attic, though it’s a bigger job. You’ll need to identify the joist locations using a stud finder, then cut a square hole in the drywall of your ceiling to remove the fasteners holding the fixture. After removing the light, you’ll have to patch and paint the ceiling again.
It’s usually safe to use old lamps, but you should check the components first for signs of damage, including fraying wires, damaged wire insulation, and loose wire connections.
If you're unsure of a lamp’s age or have an antique lamp, it’s a good idea to have a lamp repair technician rewire it. This investment will ensure the electrical components are safe to use, reducing the risk of an electrical emergency.
Pendant lights make a worthy addition to your home lighting, and you can find them in almost every style. The average cost to install a light fixture is $550, and labor is the highest cost. You can DIY a light fixture replacement in an afternoon and save a couple of hundred dollars, depending on the fixture. If you’re not confident working with electrical components, an electrician in your area can easily install your pendant lighting for you.
Low-voltage landscape lighting costs about $120 per fixture to install. You may need to install a 12-volt transformer, too, to ensure the lighting system runs safely. For a six-fixture low-voltage landscape lighting setup, expect to pay around $1,000. A major reason people choose low-voltage landscape lighting is to reduce the risk of shock, making it safer to operate the outdoor lighting system.
