"James came out to price install of a box to plug in my portable generator. After we started talking and me asking questions James was able to give me an outstanding price on a whole house Generac generator with panel upgrade and included a whole house surge protector. They ran into additional costs with running the gas line but James kept to his word and honored the original price! The crew were professional and proficient in their work! Marcie was outstanding with communication and explaining any questions I had! I would definitely recommend this company and would use J&M for any future electrical needs!"

He took extra care to plan the rod and cable placement to ensure the proper protection and retain the aesthetics of our home. His crew were knowledgeable, polite, neat and efficient. We could not be more pleased with the results."

"We had to have our fuse box replaced as well as relocated. Abraham and his team were wonderful to work with. His communication was top notch through out the whole project. He explained every step and answered any of our questions we had before, during, and after. They were very professional, organized, reliable and dependable. They came and did the work seamlessly. We got numerous estimates and I am so happy I went with him. I would absolutely use them again for all of my electrical work. They were honest and reasonable. You can't really ask for much more."

"Mr. Hernandez and his crew were always on time for consultation and the work day.  They gave a well-priced estimate based on our requests, and did even more than we asked at no extra charge.  Their work was meticulous and our front yard is transformed.  Two neighbors asked for Willow Landscaping's business card, based on their efficient and attractive work.  We ask that they receive stellar ratings in all regards.

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Yes, if something sparks when you plug it in or turn it on, it's important to unplug it immediately. A spark from an electrical appliance or device could indicate a short circuit, damaged wiring, or other electrical problems that could cause electrical fires or electrical shock. By unplugging the appliance, you can reduce the risk of electrical hazards and prevent damage to the device itself. It's important to avoid using the appliance until it has been inspected and repaired by a licensed professional to ensure that it’s safe to use.

If you have a garage heater that is 1,500 watts or more, it will need its own breaker. As a good rule of thumb, no appliance should exceed 1,500 watts per outlet for best outcomes. Consult a local garage heating service to determine the power needs for your outdoor or indoor space.

The hot wire is typically black, but it's essential to use a non-contact voltage tester to confirm the electrical wire color code before working on it. Neutral wires are typically white. It’s vital to determine which wire is carrying electrical current before proceeding with any electrical work.

It's less expensive to run power overhead because it doesn’t require excavation, and the power cables are less costly. However, underground electric service is better protected from weather and general wear and tear, so it’s less likely to get damaged. When determining which way to run power, consult a local electrician to get an expect opinion.

Removing a fuse from the fuse box is relatively safe under normal circumstances. The task becomes dangerous if wires or wire terminals are exposed or in the case of a disaster such as flooding in the home where water can act as an electrical conductor.
