"The electrician arrived after my scheduled time, without a courtesy call. I learned he had car issues, and he came in a vehicle "not as fully stocked as his primary vehicle would have been". One of the lighting fixtures I needed was not on his truck. While he was working on an electrical socket, he asked if I wanted to go to the store 'to save time and to prevent me from being charged if he had to go to the store himself, because he couldn't use the current pull cord'. Really? It's my issue because you had car problems and came in a partially stocked alternate vehicle? Anyway, I go to get a pull cord. I asked if it would be easy to find and he said that it would. I typically buy the wrong thing, so I bought two items, just in case. I return home to learn that I actually needed the entire fixture. Seriously? I understand the difference between a fixture and a pull cord... He didn't say "fixture". I was irritated, but he tried to make one of the items I bought work (it didn't). I also purchased a water heater through the electrician to be installed the following weekend. At that point, he says he'll remove the charge for trying to install the pull cord. Really? You were going to charge me for that? Back to the electrical socket, he did this 1st, completing 1 of 3 sockets on the same breaker. I was so thankful he did because the power went out again while he was installing the ceiling light. He went back to the other 2 sockets, asking me if I knew if they were working. Really? You're asking me? He ultimately rewired all 3, which, of course, makes sense. I'm certain he wouldn't have if the power didn't go out though. As he left, he asked if I could give him a good review on Yelp or Google, saying it would really help him, they'll give him like 20 bucks (something like that). I didn't. However, after the great service I received from the water heater contractors, I took the time to give them a positive review. To my shock, when I looked at the Dear Services site, I saw "Dave", the electrician that 1st came to my house. Wow! Dave acted like he was just another Dear Services electrician, but he is the founder. This was amazing and irritating to me. I wasn't going to post anything about my experience with Dave, but HomeAdvisor is persistent with their emails regarding the service that customers receive. So here I am, and this was my experience. Again, the water heater contractors were great and I posted a positive review for them. With Dave, that was definitely not the case."

"Very please experience. He came out and diagnosed an electrical issue I was having with the outlets to the bathrooms. Replaced the GFI outlet and everything is now working. He was fast, professional and reasonably priced. I would definitely use this company again."

"Kris, the owner, was really friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful in setting it all up. The bid came in about $3,000 cheaper than from a well rated competitor. Ken and Sofi did the work in 1 1/2 days. They were prompt, professional, and friendly. They explained their work nicely. They worked well with the inspector and the line crew from Seattle City Light They cleaned up everything nicely. We are very happy with the work and hope to use Ion Electric again for a remodeling project."

Lighting questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on system type, issue severity, and labor rates.

Modern outdoor light fixtures are waterproof and weather resistant, and, provided they’re installed correctly and by a professional, the fixture and wiring can last for 20 to 30 years or more. The lifespan will depend largely on the quality of the fixture. The lifespan of the bulb will depend on the type of light you install:

  • CFL bulb (for sustained use): 15,000 hours

  • Halogen bulb (mostly for security): 2,000 hours

  • HID bulbs (for security): 12,000 hours

  • Incandescent bulb: 1,000 hours

  • LED bulb: 50,000 hours

It’s not illegal to fly an American flag at night without a light shining on it, but the U.S. Flag Code notes that it’s respectful to provide illumination. Installing a flagpole light is also common practice and will add more to your home’s curb appeal at night. Choosing a solar-powered or battery-powered light for your flag is an affordable way to provide illumination.

High-quality landscape lights that are hardwired and properly maintained can last for 10 to 25 years or more. You’ll usually get a longer lifespan from soffit lights and wall-mounted lights that aren’t directly exposed to the elements or prone to damage from foot traffic or vehicle traffic. Solar-powered and battery-powered lights often won’t last as long, but you can still expect a lifespan of five to 15 years.

Flickering lights, intermittent outages, or physical damage to fixtures signal immediate repair to avoid electrical hazards.
