"I have 2 circuit breaker boxes. I am still not sure I needed a 400 amp upgrade. I already has 300 amps and never had a single problem .Now I have an unsightly and huge piece of metal conduit running up the side of my roof, through a huge hole drilled through my roof. It is 5 feet off the roof with pieces of metal hanging off it. In addition there is a massive electrical line about 1 1/2 inches in diameter, running through my attic and coming down the other side of my house. One breaker box is not flat and has large gaps all around it. The boys who did the job seemed to do it well. It seemed they do not often do this sort of thing . Jesse and Nick worked really hard. The quality control guy came after all the work was done, swept and labeled circuit boxes.Now Will Sandridge who seems to sell the HVAC and minisplits is not calling back. I also told Melvin Turner I wanted my old circuit breaker boxes and breakers. They took them away without even asking if I wanted them. My house looks ugly now and the reason I put in that electric upgrade was to get minisplits or a heat pump and no one is responding.I asked about a surge protector and got a shrug. I am rather devastated and feel I was railroaded into an electric upgrade perhaps to give the boys the experience? I see no other reviews with an electric upgrade, just generators."

"WB Lightning Rods did an excellent job installing lightening rods on our home. The owner stayed onsite the entire time to supervise the work. 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."

"I would like to recommend Joshua Smith as a Tesla installer and overall electrician. He did a great job for my wife and I on the installation of our powerwall 3 and car chargers within our garages as well as trouble shooting some other electrical problems at our new home at Smith Mountain Lake. Additionally, he answers phone calls and shows up on time. Again, we highly recommend Joshua."

"I am happy to recommended JBE Services to anyone. The team expertly installed a mini split heating system including full electrical work. They did everything required to complete the job in a timely manner including coordinating the drop off of additional parts rather than reschedule for a different day. The team was friendly and conscientious. I'm happy to have found a electrician and HVAC specialist that I trust in this area. Thanks, again!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

It’s recommended that you test GFCI outlets monthly with the test and reset buttons. At minimum, you should test GFCI outlets when entering a new season, or every three months. These are important home safety features that you should ensure work properly.

Wiring a light switch wrong can cause a fire if the incorrect wiring causes arcing, meaning the current jumps uncontrolled from one conductor to another. Loose wires or worn wires that are not repaired or replaced can cause arcing. If you’re not 100% sure you can do the job safely, don’t attempt to wire a light switch on your own.

There is no blanket figure for a residential home’s electrical load, since load varies by the size of the home, how many appliances are used, and the efficiency of their electrical systems. Typically, however, it’s safe to assume 40 to 60 amps is the average electrical load of a residential home. 

Yes, the National Electric Code (NEC) requires at least one GFCI outlet in each sectioned-off portion of an unfinished basement, partly to ensure a power source is available for a sump pump in case of flooding. If you install multiple outlets in your unfinished basement, all of them must be GFCI-protected. For finished basements, standard outlets are generally permitted, but at least one GFCI outlet is still required per circuit. Keep in mind that local municipalities may have additional codes, so it's best to consult a licensed electrician to ensure your home is fully compliant.

Grounding an electrical outlet can take as little as 30 minutes if you only need to replace the outlet or around two hours if you need to add a ground wire. However, more extensive electrical work will take longer, such as hiring an electrician to ground multiple outlets during the same service.
