"The contractor sent to my house was NOT a licensed electrician. I was told a free quote was 39.99, that turned to 59.99 when I got the estimate and it was waaaaaay over priced and then wanted me to pay a fee to get a warranty for their work! I would have expected a warranty on his work should have been given to me! I needed the job done right away, he was pleasant and courteous but never again with this company."

"Kevin Williams was sent to repair problems created by another electrician hired by Kitchen Saver during an expansive kitchen re-face and cabinet installation. Among other things, he re-located an unsightly transformer that had been previously secured to the inside of the first shelf of a main kitchen cabinet to a lower cabinet out of sight. Voila! Then, he re-routed unsightly wiring previously clamped to the far corner of a glass display cabinet so that it was out of sight. These were difficult puzzles to solve, as the new cabinets had already been installed and there was no longer easy access. Kevin was friendly, professional, and experienced! Great job!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

In Arlington, DIY electrical work on small projects may save money, but risks include code violations, safety hazards, and failed inspections. The Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code requires licensed professionals for most major electrical projects. Hiring a qualified electrician ensures compliance, liability coverage, and peace of mind. For complex jobs or anything involving your electrical panel, always consult a local expert.

Helpful?

In Arlington, most electrical projects—such as installing new circuits, upgrading service panels, or adding major appliances—require an electrical permit from the Arlington Department of Community Planning, Housing & Development. Projects must comply with the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code and the National Electrical Code. Minor repairs like replacing switches are usually exempt, but always confirm requirements to avoid fines or failed inspections.

Helpful?

For electrical projects in Arlington, copper wiring is preferred for safety and compliance with the National Electrical Code. Use THHN or THWN wire for indoor conduit applications and UF-B cable for outdoor or underground use. For general circuits, #14 AWG is standard, while kitchens or heavy appliances require #12 AWG. Choose electrical boxes and breakers that meet Arlington's code requirements for lasting, safe installations.

Helpful?

Electrical systems in Arlington should be maintained by testing GFCI outlets and smoke detectors quarterly, and inspecting panels for tripped breakers or corrosion annually. Before winter, check for exposed wiring and seal exterior outlets against moisture. During summer, monitor circuit loads from HVAC and appliances. The Arlington Department of Community Planning, Housing & Development recommends regular inspections to ensure ongoing code compliance and home safety.

Helpful?

In Arlington, common mistakes include overloading circuits, skipping required electrical permits, and using improper wire sizes for appliances. Many homeowners neglect to install GFCI outlets in kitchens and bathrooms, risking safety violations. Failing to follow the National Electrical Code or Arlington's local regulations can result in failed inspections and costly repairs. Always verify code requirements and consult local authorities before starting any electrical project.
