"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."

"All the work was completed exactly as I’d hoped and I’m happy with the outcome. It was pretty quick turnaround from when I first reached out to the work being complete, which was good because the electrical work was a prerequisite for another project. I had two light fixtures needing repair and a new outlet to be installed. I was able to watch the work and it was interesting to learn the steps involved. Electrical work is definitely an area where I wanted a professional involved! Would call this company again for any future electrical work needs."

"We had been
looking for a state of the art solar power system, using the latest technology in
solar and battery backup.

It was hard
finding a company that could stabiles power in our home and give us what we
wanted.  The power from the local power
company was always over high voltage or very low shorting the life of my electronics
and motors in my home and workshop.    It
was hard finding a company that knew what they was doing and giving a good
price for what we wanted. The Company Renewable Engineered Systems RESllc  was the only one that was able to do this.           Only 1 volt flux of voltage  There system acts like a cpasator in my home
and give us very clean power this will extend the life of all my electronics
and motors that i have in my freezers and fringes and well pump.

This works day to day plus if the grid goes
down, my house will still be running with solar power"

"the staff are very nice - before they even walked in, they laid down paper throughout the walk path of the house to keep everything clean. They were very careful in our home and courteous. Anthony is responsive and a really nice guy.

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Yes, a leaking water heater can damage electrical work. Water can seep into electrical components, causing short circuits, tripped breakers, or even fires. The combination of water and electricity is quite hazardous, so it's crucial to address any leaks immediately to prevent electrical damage and ensure your home’s safety.

The wrong-sized wire can lead to several safety hazards, including structural fires, surges, power outages from tripped breakers, and electrocution. It’s important to follow the American Wire Gauge system and the National Electrical Code guidelines to safely wire a home. Electrical wiring is not safe for homeowners to handle and is best left to a licensed electrician.

In the majority of cases, you can replace an outlet with a USB outlet. USB charging receptacles install in the same spot as standard outlets and any electrician worth their salt is more than familiar with the replacement process. Additionally, it’s possible to replace yourself, but only if you have prior experience with your home’s electrical system, as it requires handling of wires.

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.

Typically, a local home energy auditor is responsible for performing energy audits. A home energy auditor will conduct one of three energy audits designed by the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) to determine the energy efficiency of your home. The auditor often provides analysis that can help guide changes and improvements to your home for better energy efficiency, giving recommendations as necessary.
