I have been in the construction industry on and off for most of my life. My entire family is in construction in one form or another so it is a tradition and passion for myself. There is no job too small or too large that I can not be of assistance to you. I have remodeled several homes in the area and built one complete home my self. If there is a project that is too large for me I have the connections in the industry to get you the right professional for the job at a reasonable price. Our family name is known well in the Rockbridge County area for custom precision work at a fair price.

"Don't do it!!! Where do I start; my "two to three week" job took almost three months. Outrageously over priced for the quality of work done. I think he used an auto mechanic for his drywall subcontractor. Zero communication throughout the process, and then got huffy when I questioned what he'd done. Not worth it."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Yes, splicing wires can cause a fire if the splicing is done incorrectly. This is why splicing wires is a task best handled by electricians. One of the most common mistakes made when splicing wires is not using a wire connector. Without a wire connector, electricity flows unsheathed and can result in a home electrical fire.

Professional services ensure safe installations, reliable repairs, and compliance with codes emphasizing safety in electrical networks.

The standard copper wire gauge to use with any 30-amp circuit is a 10-gauge wire. The National Electric Code specifies a 10-gauge wire with appliances like water heaters running on 30 amps. If you try to use a smaller gauge wire, such as a 12 gauge, with a 30-amp breaker, you run the risk of the wire overheating and melting or causing a fire. Because of the safety hazards, the gauge of the wire is not an area to try to cut costs when connecting a 30-amp breaker to a water heater.

For a 200-amp underground service, you need a minimum of #2/0 American Wire Gauge (AWG) copper or #4/0 AWG aluminum or copper-clad wire. Don’t forget that, at minimum, you’ll need to use a 1 1/2-inch schedule 40 or 80 PVC conduit to successfully run a 200-amp underground service.

In theory, a standard breaker can trip around 50 times before it needs replacing if overloading is the cause of your breaker tripping. In practice, you may find that number is much lower, however. If a high current fault causes your breaker to trip, you may only be able to reset the breaker two times before replacing it.
