"Many thanks to Anthony and Ralph for fixing the electrical issue in our master bathroom. They did great work! The best part about these guys is that they literally show you exactly what the problem was and how they were going to fix it. They also provided enough information upfront on what the cost would be. Also a big shout out to Anjeli, she was very pleasant and contacted us after all the work was done to see if we were satisfied. We will be using this company for future electrical services!"

"Electrical in an older home can be complicated. We had several people give outrageous estimates or never show up to do the work. Stapleford electric was prompt in providing an estimate and completed the work with quality. The cost for installing a new outlet and bracing for a large, heavy chandelier was fixed cost and other work was a time and materials rate. Both were reasonable and they knew what they were doing with the old style wiring. We had an additional expense to get plaster repaired separately but that would have been the case no matter who did the electrical work - they referred us to a master plasterer which was great. I have no reservations to recommend or use Stapleford again."

"Curt Blessing was a pleasure to work with. He gave a very quick, fair estimate. His team did a very professional job installing our new EV charging station (which was not a simple job because the station is located far from the panel). We will definitely be contacting Blessing Electric for any future electrical needs."

Customers say: Quick response

"Pete came out and we discussed my desire to upgrade my panel. He was very professional and explained his recommendations in wording that even I could understand. During the upgarde he answered any of my questions. When Pete had finished with the upgrade it looked like a work of art. He cleaned up everything. Skill counts and Gulotta has plenty. I highly recommend Gulotta Electric for all your electrical needs."

"JC Electric did a fantastic job installing a ceiling fan and entryway light fixture in my home. The high ceilings made the job a bit challenging, but Joe was thorough, professional, and completed everything very quickly. He was responsive from my initial inquiry, was able to schedule the work promptly, and worked with us to stay within our budget. I was very pleased with the quality of the work and the overall experience. I would absolutely recommend JC Electric to anyone looking for reliable, professional electrical work!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Compared to amps, volts, and watts, ohms are a different kind of measurement, though also very common. Ohms show the resistance of materials like wiring: How much they impede the flow of electrons. The reason household wiring is usually copper or aluminum is that these materials are affordable and also have lower ohms, which means low resistance/high conductivity.

If your plug feels hot to the touch, it’s likely a sign of an electrical issue that needs immediate attention. Check for signs of melting or discoloration around the plug, as well as any burning smells or smoke. If you notice any of these signs, immediately unplug any devices and do not use the outlet again until it’s been inspected by a qualified electrician.

Inverter generators are designed to turn on the engine when your appliances demand more energy. This is in contrast to running at full capacity as soon as they’re turned on, like a standard portable generator does. So long as the wattage rating is high enough, an inverter can power a refrigerator just as well as a traditional generator.

Yes, a faulty or broken light switch can be a serious fire hazard. Malfunctioning switches often result from loose wiring, exposed connections, or other electrical problems that can cause overheating or sparking. Warning signs include crackling, popping, or hissing sounds when you flip the switch, which indicates live electricity that could ignite nearby flammable materials. If you suspect your light switch is faulty, immediately turn off the power at the circuit breaker and contact a qualified electrician to remedy the issue.

A 10,000-watt generator can run a small to mid-sized central AC unit (typically up to 3 tons or 36,000 BTU) along with a few other appliances. However, larger AC units or additional loads will require a bigger generator. Consult a local generator installer to ensure you add the correct size generator to your home.
