"This was a fairly large and expensive piece of necessary home maintenance. My home is now 25 years old, and I am the original owner. My main circuit breaker had been "acting up" recently; that is, it randomly failed (opened) as the day proceeded and the temperature rose. It is housed along with all of my other circuit breakers in my main breaker box, which is directly exposed to the early afternoon sun in the late spring and early fall months. Concerned, I did a bit of research online to discover my box likely had reached end-of-life. I called 2 contractors for estimates, and chose West Houston Electric to replace the box. In addition, my original ground rod was disconnected from my home's main grounding lead, which West Houston found when they inspected my box to give me a bid. I was told the original rod was likely galvanized metal provided by the builder, and that it had likely deteriorated significantly over the 25-year life of my house. They also suggested a "whole home" surge protector to minimize the effect of voltage surges that occur, the tech said, on a daily basis. These surges, it was claimed, have a deteriorating effect on any electric devices in my house, especially on "high tech" equipment that utilized chip technology. Both bidding contractors made this claim. I must say I haven't experienced any failures in chip-based technologies in my home. But, my AC compressor, when it comes on, comes on "hard." It must draw a lot of amperage when it cycles on, and it will do so often in the summer months. (I have a "start switch" on it to minimize the abruptness of its operation, but I often wonder what it draws as it is a very loud start.) I chose West Houston Electric to do the work because their competitor found almost $6,000 worth of work to do. To their credit, the tech broke that down to "must haves," "should haves," and "nice to haves." Even so, their bid for the "must haves," the work West Houston performed, was higher. The tech was on time for the scheduled work and seemed quite knowledgeable and likable. The owner had spoken to me on the phone, and came by twice during the work to check on progress. This is a relatively long procedure, by the way. It takes about 4-5 hours start to finish, and your power will be out most of that time. The tech found one more issue that seemed prudent to address regarding a GIF breaker for my pool pump, The competing contractor had suggested that as well. Though the risk is low that a pump failure might cause electricity to flow into my pool, it was the sort of risk that entailed mortality on the down side--that circuit is 220v. It the pump failed, and it caused current to flow into the pool, and anyone was in it, it would be "curtains." If this were to occur, I could not live with myself having chosen to take the risk instead of spending about $400. So, I conceded to add the additional protection. The work proceeded well. The tech and I struck up a good conversation about lawn maintenance, a favorite chore of mine (and his), and it finished up pretty much as we expected. West Houston did a fine job for me. I will use them again as there are always a few more things to be done in a house as old as mine. ("Old" is such an odd description of a house that is 25 years old; but that is Houston for you.)"

"Oscar Rosales of Right Pro Electrical Services went over and above for us today. We ran into him at Ace Hardware while we were there looking for a trip circuit breaker. Two places were sold out of the one we needed (Ace and Lowes). Oscar had what we needed in his truck (thankfully!) and I asked him if he would please follow us home and help us out as we had no electricity in half of the house, and no televisions were working (and we had company). Not only did Oscar change it out for us but he also had to move furniture around, troubleshoot the problem, explained everything we needed to do in the future, and also reset our garage door (which has not worked in nearly a year since the last power outage) and did not charge us for that. He really saved the day for us today. We will call on Oscar again and we will recommend him to our family and neighbors as well. We are very pleased with the personal level of service, friendliness and professionalism."

"Communication is great. They answer all your questions. Tech is out when they say they will be there. Very friendly people and very fair. No issues what so ever. We added a 220v outlet in the garage for our new EV car and only took about an hour."

FAQs for electrical service projects in Bellaire, TX

It’s important to ask an electrician a few questions before you commit to hiring them so you can make an informed decision as a consumer. If you’re getting estimates or considering hiring an electrician, ask them these questions:

  • Are you a full-time electrician?

  • Are you bonded, licensed, and insured?

  • What level of experience do you have as an electrician?

  • Can you please share three references?

  • Do you do residential or commercial electrical work?

  • What kinds of electrical work are you most familiar with?

  • Will any subcontractors be performing the work?

  • Are permits and inspections required?

  • Who is responsible for obtaining permits and inspections?

  • What is your schedule?

  • Do you offer a guarantee or warranty on your work?

  • Will you sign a do-not-exceed clause to keep the job within the budget?

Tipping an electrician is not a requirement nor is it expected, as they build a fair wage into the price of the job. It’s up to your discretion. There are no set rules for tipping electricians, but if they did a great job and you’re so inclined to tip 10% to 15%, it will likely be received with thanks.

Yes, you should get a quote or an estimate from an electrician. Most electricians offer free estimates or quotes. When getting quotes, do your research and verify each electrician’s license. Get quotes from three different electricians to compare. If the prices or items listed appear different on the quotes, ask the electrician to clarify. Learning as much as you can about the electrical work you want done will help you get the most accurate estimate. 

Qualified, licensed electricians will charge from $50 to $100 per hour. The cost to hire an electrician for emergency visits may range from $100 to $200 per hour because this urgent service usually takes place during off hours and may require an electrician to leave or reschedule jobs they’re currently working on. Scheduling work on holidays or during periods of high customer demand, like after a major storm, will also lead to higher rates or extra fees.

Yes, although there are different types of electricians, they must be licensed, certified, and in most cases insured. States have different requirements for electrician licensing and certifications. In some cases, there may be licensing requirements at the local level, but not the state level. It’s always a good practice to confirm requirements with your local municipality. If licensing is not required in your area, you may pay more for a licensed electrician with experience than one who is not licensed or certified, but you’re likely to get a better end result for your project.

As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include: 

  • The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check

  • Required to have applicable state and local licenses

  • Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review

  • Paying to advertise their services

  • Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi

Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
