"Had to postpone the job. when I tried to call back and schedule another one they never contacted me back.


UPDATE - They have reached out to me and are coming to my home on 1/8/15. I will update again after I meet with them.

UPDATE - 2/4/2015 - They did come to my home and provided an estimate and plan for lighting our back yard and deck. 6 lights were included in our original purchased deal. Their proposal was for the original 6 lights plus another $1500 worth of lighting. I like their plan but we weren't prepared to spend the additional money at this time. They came out yesterday and installed just the initial 6 lights. They arrived on time and the work they did is wonderful. Our deck is beautifully lit now and I am very happy. While this relationship got off to a rocky start, they made it right and we will hire them again when we're ready to finish the back yard lighting. Also - the deal was supposed to be for the front of the house - but that wasn't clear when I bought the deal - so they allowed us to use our 6 lights on the deck. I'm sure they want the front so that they can show off their work - and that makes sense to me - as their work is worth showing off. I would now highly recommend this company."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Signs that previous electrical work in Emporia may need attention include frequent breaker trips, flickering lights, or outlets that feel warm to the touch. Watch for exposed or outdated wiring, rust or corrosion on electrical panels—especially in humid conditions—and missing GFCI outlets in kitchens or bathrooms. Any work completed without proper permits or flagged during inspections should be professionally evaluated.

Helpful?

In Emporia, electrical issues can sometimes mimic HVAC, plumbing, or structural problems, particularly in older homes. If GFCI outlets trip after storms, moisture intrusion may be the cause rather than faulty wiring. If your air conditioning fails, check if other circuits are affected. When symptoms overlap, consult both an electrician and another specialist to accurately identify the source of the problem.

Helpful?

In Emporia, common mistakes include skipping required permits, attempting DIY electrical work, and overlooking the need for electrical panel upgrades in older homes. Homeowners often neglect grounding improvements or fail to install GFCI protection, especially in damp areas. Not planning for surge protection during frequent storms or ignoring the specific wiring needs of historic homes can also create safety and code compliance issues.

Helpful?

When planning electrical projects in Emporia, consider the area’s humid summers, frequent thunderstorms, and prevalence of older homes. Surge protection and electrical panel upgrades are especially important for reliable power. If your home is historic, check for restrictions on exterior electrical changes. Schedule major work during milder weather and explore local energy efficiency programs that may offer rebates for electrical improvements.

Helpful?

When hiring an electrician in Emporia, prioritize professionals with proven experience in historic home wiring and knowledge of local permit requirements. Confirm they carry up-to-date insurance, offer references from recent Emporia projects, and are equipped to handle emergency repairs. It’s also wise to choose someone familiar with electrical panel upgrades and surge protection solutions for the region’s stormy climate.
