"It was done by Mike Stapleford in the time and manner of a professional electrician with 30 years experience. He cleaned up after himself and was very pleasant. His charge was too low, and I increased the payment to amore reasonable amount. The following day, I gave his name and phone number at my company for use for future work there. I highly recommend Stapleford Electric."

"We hired Young's Electrical Service after receiving quotes from several other companies and having them not show up. Young's arrived when promised, meticulously completed the install and cleaned up after the project. We plan to hire them for additional work in the future."

"I had new outside service and a new panel installed in my row home. Mr. Carter was very knowledgeable about old row house wiring. He arrived at the time he stated, took down the old (50+ years) wiring coming into the house from the street, replaced my old breaker (panel) box and labeled the switches (which switch turned the electric on and off in each room). He and his assistant were very pleasant, worked very efficiently, explained the work being done and answered the many questions I had regarding old row homes and electrical wiring. We did a walk through to discuss future electrical projects. He impressed neighbor who pretty much hired him on the spot. I will be referring him to my friends."

"Jim was very professional. He had to come up with an idea to install two ceiling fans with no existing electrical to tie into. He came to survey the job prior, gave me an estimate, and told me what i would need to purchase prior. He messaged me the day before to confirm and showed up when he said he would."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The cost of fixing faulty wiring depends on the type of repair required. Replacing an electrical service line, for example, can cost up to $500. Rewiring an entire house will cost at least several thousand dollars. Replacing old wiring like knob and tube wiring will be even more expensive, but fortunately that kind of outdated wiring is fairly rare. Always get an estimate from a reliable electrician to learn the cost details. 

A GFCI outlet can be 15A or 20A. The average American home power outlet is 15A.

If you plan to have a refrigerator or other appliances that require electricity, you will need an electrical outlet in your outdoor kitchen. Be sure to comply with all National Electrical Code® (NEC®) codes for electrical wiring and outlets in kitchens. If you do not plan to install a refrigerator or any other appliances that require electricity as part of your outdoor kitchen features, then you do not need to install electrical outlets. However, it is a good idea to install at least one electrical outlet should you decide to use any appliances that require electricity.

How far you can run underground electric depends on the wire gauge (generally AWG) and the circuit voltage. Too much voltage drop in an electrical circuit can negatively affect performance, so the smaller the voltage drop, the better. Ideally, it shouldn't exceed 3%. The smaller the wire and the longer the run, the more significant the voltage drop. 

For example, with a 120-volt circuit, you can run 60 feet of 12 AWG cable without losing more than 3% voltage. With a 240-volt circuit, you can run 120 feet of 12 AWG wire while maintaining a voltage drop of 3% or less.

You can check if an electrician is licensed in New York by using the online license verification search tool offered by the New York State Education Department. The database is updated daily and gives you the option of searching by license number, contractor name, or the name of the business.
