"Fred, the company owner came out himself to give us an estimate on doing the necessary electrical work to install a new tankless water heater. He was very thorough and explained things clearly. He wrote out the estimate on the spot. We found him to very engaging, and absolutely reliable and honest. We were very pleased with the work that Eli and Fred performed. Again, Fred made sure that we had a clear understanding of what was done and why. He also calculated our system load. Which gave us peace of mind.They even cleaned up after themselves! And most significantly- he stuck to his estimate, and guarantees his work. I highly recommend Coastal Sign and Electric!"

"Coastal Digital has done my work since 2007. I have various building projects. Their work included network wiring, telephone jacks, home theater, surround sound, TV mounts, and alarm systems. They have been my only low voltage wiring contractor for the past 20 years. I have also had projects in other states, and they have worked with me on them. I am still buying and using them today!

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Before you start doing anything else, you must call your electric company to confirm their process. It is technically their meter that you’re moving, so there’s really no such thing as free rein. Moving the meter generally involves disconnecting power from the utility company, disconnecting the cables that run into your electrical panel, and dismounting the meter assembly. Once uninstalled, a handyperson will remount and reconnect the wiring in its new location.

It's possible to get power from an outlet for a light switch. However, you must install additional wiring to get current from the outlet to the switch and from the switch to the load it will control. Also, you must ensure that the outlet's electrical circuit can accommodate the additional demand. 

It's recommended that you only use your circuit breaker for your water heater. Tacking on additional appliances, especially large ones like refrigerators, can overload the circuit and lead to electrical fires. Therefore, it's best to have separate circuits for each major appliance, particularly continuous load appliances, which use a lot of energy over prolonged periods of time.

Some types of electric fireplaces use more electricity than others. Models that produce 1,500 watts will have more of an effect on your heating bill than 750-watt models. 

Electric fireplaces use an average of $1.85 of electricity every eight hours. These minimal operational costs aren’t likely to make a big difference in your electric bill—unless you’re using it as a primary heating source for your home and it’s running most of the time.

To determine if an electrical outlet is blown, look for visible signs of damage such as a burning or smoky smell, burn marks, or a melted or discolored plastic cover. If you notice a burning smell, contact an electrician immediately. Other signs include a plug that keeps falling out or the outlet not working when you test it with different devices. For further troubleshooting, you can use a voltage tester or multimeter to check for power; a reading of zero indicates a problem. Also, check your circuit breaker or fuse box to see if the circuit was tripped and reset it if necessary. If these steps don't resolve the issue, the outlet may need to be replaced.
