"I have been a customer with AHS since 2006 in 2 states. I recently assisted my daughter with a new home purchase. AHS contracts with One way Electrical in that area. We had some electrical concerns. Doug was our service technician. He was knowledgeable and professional. We had a challenge after our visit and he immediately offered a solution that worked immediately."

At Sunrise Electric, we believe that top notch service is key to any great business. Whether it's your favorite restaurant, or a professional electrician in your home, the way you are treated decides more than anything else if you will come back or not. That's why when we're in your home, you're not a customer to us, you're family. We treat others as we would like to be treated, so when it comes to value we want to give you the best bang for your buck. We strive to be YOUR trusted electrician, the one you call on from time to time, not "that electrician that took advantage of us". We guarantee all of our work for at least a year, so if anything goes wrong you can call us day or night, and we will make it right. We are reliable as the rising sun and will strive to be up front and honest every time... because if you can't trust someone to show up on time, how can you trust them to work on your home.

They were great and explained everything, and the workmanship was top notch. Making sure that all the old GFIC outlets were working and wired up correctly and running line for a dehumidifier to its own circuit. I will be using them again in the future for any electrical work. It was a wonderful experience and managed correctly."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

After electrical work in Columbia, schedule annual inspections by a licensed electrician to check for code compliance and system integrity. Test GFCI and AFCI outlets monthly, and monitor for signs of wear or overheating. The City of Columbia Building Inspections and Permits Department recommends routine maintenance, especially after severe weather. Regular upkeep helps prevent hazards and ensures your electrical system remains safe and efficient.

Helpful?

In Columbia, DIY electrical work may save money but risks code violations, failed inspections, and safety hazards. Licensed electricians ensure compliance with Columbia's building codes, reducing fire and shock risks. The City of Columbia Building Inspections and Permits Department requires permits for most projects, and improper DIY work can lead to costly corrections. Hiring a certified professional is typically safer and ensures your project meets local standards.

Helpful?

For electrical projects in Columbia, use weather-resistant PVC conduit for outdoor wiring, GFCI outlets in wet areas, and copper wiring to meet city code. Fire-rated electrical boxes are recommended for safety, and tamper-resistant receptacles are required in new installations. Always verify materials meet Columbia's building code standards and consult the City of Columbia Building Inspections and Permits Department for approved supply lists and compliance requirements.

Helpful?

In Columbia, most electrical projects require an electrical permit from the City of Columbia Building Inspections and Permits Department. Licensed contractors must provide project details, proof of licensure, and register all subcontractors. Homeowners performing work must also document scope and compliance. Permit fees depend on project valuation, and all work must pass inspections by city officials before approval, as required by the South Carolina Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation.

Helpful?

In Columbia, frequent mistakes include starting work without obtaining an electrical permit, using undersized wiring, or neglecting proper grounding. Homeowners sometimes overlook local code updates or skip required inspections by city officials. According to the City of Columbia Building Inspections and Permits Department, these errors can lead to failed inspections or safety risks. Consulting licensed professionals and following city regulations helps avoid costly and dangerous mistakes.
