"It was very easy to work with Joe to finalize a quote and get the job scheduled. Once onsite, Carlos and his colleague knew exactly what to do and how to run the new electric circuit across the house from the electrical panel to the garage. The installed the EV charger we had purchased separately exactly how we wanted it. Everything worked perfectly. They even went the extra mile to come back and patch the garage drywall where they had made a few holes to run the cable even though it was not included in the job initially. Overall very happy with both the price we paid and the quality of the work. Will hire again for any electrical work we'll need."

"How did it go? Not well. I finally just bought the required ladder at 200 USD and did not pursue Kolb Electric further. I should have just bought the ladder in the first place. Live and learn."

"Youssef was very pleasant to work with, and thorough. He pointed out (and fixed) an electrical safety issue I wasn't even considering. He clearly knows his business. Would recommend."

"They electricians were very professional. We communicated before the appointment so they would know exactly what make and models of fans and TV I wanted installed, and they came prepared. Everything worked exactly like they told me it should, and they ended up installing everything in less time than we planned. They did an outstanding job and I plan on calling them back to install another TV in the near future. I suspect I will use SciFiHomes for all my electrical needs in the future. I really was that impressed. The work was performed in Fredericksburg, VA - Not Woodbridge."

"Excellent. James has been providing electrical services for us for five years+. All of his work was completed as promised, on time, and NEVER had to be redone. We would never have anyone else provide electrical service for us. His next assignment from us will be to move our dining room chandelier and upgrade outlets in our garage."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Knob and tube wiring is old, and its casing is brittle. This means that it's possible to receive a dangerous electrical shock if you touch a live wire and essentially become an electrical pathway. Although the scenario is unlikely, touching any K&T wiring is simply not a good idea in any instance. Leave any wire handling to the professionals.

When power is restored to your home, the transfer switch will return to utility power after about 10 seconds. Your generator will then run for a few more minutes to cool down before automatically shutting itself off. In most situations, your home will stay powered by the generator for at least five minutes, even after your power comes back on.

On average, replacing an electrical breaker panel, such as the Federal Pacific Electrical breaker panel, costs about $1,300. The price range for replacing electrical panels is between $550 and $2,100, depending on your location, the electrical panel’s location, and the extent of the work required to replace the panel. This kind of electrical work is dangerous and should only be done by a licensed electrician.

No, you don’t need to hire an electrician to install your garage door opener. Garage door professionals have the skills and expertise to install the wiring necessary to connect the opener to your home’s wiring system. When hiring a local garage door professional to install your system, make sure the opener task is included in the list of provided services.

If your outlet needs to be reset multiple times, you likely have a problem with the outlet, the reset button, the wiring, or its connected circuit breaker. If the reset button doesn’t work and the circuit breaker isn’t the issue, it’s likely a problem with the outlet or the reset button it’s attached to.
