"Baker Brothers never disappoints. My a/c unit stopped working and Stephen quickly went to work. He identified the problem and throughly explained the issue. It’s nice to know I can trust them with all my plumbing, a/c, and electrical issues! Another happy customer… Bravo!"

"We had a great experience with this company. They mounted all of our TVs on the wall, moved several outlets for us, installed ceiling fans, and even ran power to our septic tank. Everything was done quickly and efficiently, and their work was very clean and professional. It’s hard to find reliable people these days, but they exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend them for any electrical work!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

It’s possible to distinguish a positive black wire from a negative black wire if you know what type of circuit the wires are in. If it’s an alternating current (AC), then black wires are positive. If it’s a direct current (DC), then black wires are negative. 

Sometimes, a circuit has two black wires. In that case, the positive black wire will be solid black while the negative black wire will have a white stripe on it. If you’re still unsure, you can use a multimeter to check.

A home warranty usually covers electrical wiring work, depending on your specific plan. Most home warranty plans cover repairs for major appliances and home systems, including failure due to wear and tear. Home warranties aren’t as common as homeowners insurance, but they are more likely to cover old wiring.

Unfortunately, yes, a wall outlet can just go bad. You could’ve purchased a faulty outlet, had it improperly installed, or just blown a fuse in your home. Regardless of what caused the issue, it’s important for you to hire the right professional for this job so they can get it done right the first time.

Most upgrades take 1-5 days, depending on building size and wiring complexity.

Single switch installs are quick DIY projects, but you should consider enlisting the help of a pro for more complicated replacements—like a smart switch or if you live in an older home with outdated wiring. Professional electricians are trained in the latest code regulations. They are also insured, licensed, and bonded.
