"I hired Atlas Electrical Solutions to run a cable from the third floor to the second floor. Youssef was highly professional and discussed the details of the project thoroughly before confirming. He was punctual, and incredibly detail oriented throughout the project. He was also very friendly and courteous. I'd highly recommend Atlas Electrical Solutions!"

"Bowden installed an electrical outlet to operate an electric shad in the foyer, recessed light above the garage entryway and a ceiling fan. Plus the electrician was on time, very courteous and respectful, used drop clothes and shoe covers to minimize dirt, swept and vacuumed area, and reasonably priced. They receive an AAA plus. Will definitely will be using Bowden for other electrical projects. If looking for an awesome electrical company - contact Bowden"

"I am a happy customer and will recommend Cody Malone Services! Even though I got a slightly cheaper quote from someone else, I chose Steve based on two things: past reviews and his willingness to stop by my house to give a quote. His deputies Jeremy and Demeric did all the work. They were very polite, professional and hard working young men and have a bright future ahead. They also wore masks all the time which I really appreciated. On last day, I asked Jeremy to do a bit of extra work to replace a switch but he didn't ask extra money for it, which I liked, and so he/they earned the tip. I have recommended Steve to couple of my friends already and will definitely hire them for all my future electrical/lighting projects."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

If your home already has wires for a ceiling fan (and optional light kit), then it’s quite safe to wire and install it yourself. Always be very careful to shut off the power before you begin, and confirm that the power is safely off with a non-contact voltage tester before touching anything. It’s also highly recommended to use eye protection, rubberized gloves, and tools with rubber handles to keep yourself safe from electric shock.

It is possible to change a light fixture by only flipping the light switch, but it’s better to be safe than sorry. Exercising extra caution when working with electricity is always important. Take the extra few minutes at your electrical box to cut the power at the circuit breaker. Once you’ve flipped the circuit breaker and the light switch, use a voltage tester to confirm the power has been turned off.

A sump pump can be plugged into a regular, 110-volt outlet with three-prong openings, but it must have GFCI protections per the NEC, meaning you’ll need a GFCI outlet and circuit. Sump pumps require two outlet openings, one for the plug to the motor and one for the float switch.

If you’re moving wires, installing new wires, or installing new fixtures in the space you’re insulating, then you will need to hire a licensed electrician to do that portion of the job for you. However, if you just intend on replacing old insulation or adding new insulation over existing insulation, then you don’t need to hire one. Your insulation installer will work around wiring, fixtures, outlets, and switches, even if they’re installing fiberglass batts in the voids where wires run. However, you will need an electrician if you suspect a problem with your wiring during the insulation work.

Like any other household appliance, electric fireplaces can wear out after about 10 to 20 years. With more frequent use, the parts will wear out quicker, and you may get just 7 to 10 years out of a well-loved electric fireplace. Fortunately, electric fireplaces come with a lower upfront installation cost compared to alternatives like gas, so you can install a replacement for less.
