"David arrived on schedule to provide a price quote for the electrical work we needed done. He was able to provide a price while looking at the scope of the work. Within 15 minutes my wife and I decided to ask him to do the work. He and his helper, Lee arrived on time the next morning and completed the work within 5 hours. During the time that David was here he made several suggestions which improved on the plan that we had designed without any additional cost. We are very comfortable with the quality of work that Valley Electric provided and feel that it was completed in a reasonable amount of time for a fair price."

"I hired W B Lighting Rods/William Burden to install lightning rods on my home. I spoke to William on a Monday and by Thursday before 1 PM the lightning rods were installed on my home. William explained everything he was going to do before he did it. The lightning rods were affordable and most of all it gives me peace of mind knowing that my home is protected against lightning strikes and fire damage. I couldnâ t be happier with this company!!"

"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!"

"I had to have my long driveway cleared from snow. James handled the job. Unlike other businesses in Charlottesville where it is hit and miss if they get back to you, James was in constant contact with me and followed up each of my calls and requests. He was thoroughly reliable, skilled, friendly, and patient. He did not leave the job until I was completely satisfied. He is a hard worker and I wish I could leave him 10 stars!"

"Casey installed the ceiling fan in my 19 foot ceiling. It had a 6 foot downrod and now the room feels much cooler. And installed another ceiling fan in the guest bedroom. He also had to run the wiring in the attic for both fans which was a very difficult attic and small space to work through. He did excellent work and I recommend him to my friends and family. And I would recommend him for any electrical project you may have. I wish I could post a picture so you could see his excellent work"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Yes, states and local governments can have additional building codes that address kitchen outlets. In most cases, these kitchen outlet codes simply refer to the NEC. However, states or local municipalities can have separate requirements for electrician licensing, such as requiring a permit to make big changes, and other details.

It might seem tempting to use 14-gauge wires for your outlets, as they can run a little cheaper. But, when it comes to electrical work, it’s best not to cut costs less you overload your circuit. A 12-gauge wire will ensure that you’re protecting the outlet (and your circuit breaker) from any potential overloads that might incur, as it can handle a little more amplitude than a 14-gauge wire.

It’s not recommended to turn off your breaker box in hopes of saving electricity. Breaker boxes were not designed to constantly be switched on and off. Therefore, turning off breakers unnecessarily can cause costly damage that outnumbers any energy savings. Only flip your breakers if absolutely necessary when troubleshooting an electrical issue.

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.

You may not always need to hire a local electrician to install a doorbell camera. Wireless doorbell cameras, for instance, are simple enough for the average homeowner to install. They easily attach to your threshold and run on batteries, so no wiring is necessary.

However, wired doorbells with cameras likely require electrical work that should only be attempted by licensed electricians. You’ll need to call a pro if you’re working with a wired doorbell camera.
