"We had a unique electrical repair in our septic tank splice box, and HES showed up and had the job done in a little over an hour. They were great at communication and very professional."
"Jeremy was the contractor who installed my Solar power system on my garage. He was fast, professional, courteous and knowledgeable. Left no mess and was able to answer all my questions. He's going to be my go-to guy for any electrical work I may need in the future."
"I had a great experience with WATTZU ELECTRIC INC. They installed new lights and outlets in my home, and the whole process was smooth from start to finish. The crew was professional, showed up on time, and paid attention to the details. Everything was done safely, neatly, and exactly how I wanted it. It’s hard to find reliable electricians these days, but I’d definitely recommend them to anyone needing electrical work."
"High level of integrity & honesty; clear & mutually-respectful, timely communication; conscientious, diligent & focused workers with high skill level; passed all state electrical inspections related to work the first time. This job included electrical wiring & circuit upgrades for the kitchen too."
"The team arrived as scheduled. Alex & Tyler worked well as a team. They installed ceiling fans which we had purchased ahead of time. They had to put in fan boxes for all 3. Also we had to replace 2 bathroom fans. They supplied one of those. Lastly we needed outlets on our porch. They were able to get all this done in about half a day. We were super impressed with the ease of setting up the assessment, scheduling the work and completion of the job. The prices fit our budget. We were not pressured into additional work. In the future we are planning more upgrades around our place and we will be calling Mr Electric again. Than you Alex & Tyler for doing such a great job."

"I'm very impressed. My house was built in 2024 and they came out to do the electrical. Most of it was done, but do to things needing to be done before they could finish, it became a long process. My husband passed away, and they had to work with me. They have been with me along the way. It's now 2026 and they are finishing everything up. I am thankful for honest people. I would recommend this company to people. Kim Campbell Springdale Wa."

Buying a house with aluminum wiring requires careful consideration due to potential fire risks. Ensure a thorough inspection by a licensed electrician to assess the condition and identify necessary safety upgrades—factor in these additional costs when deciding. While it may not be a total deal-breaker, understanding the risks and required maintenance is necessary. Also, you should consult your insurer about coverage for homes with aluminum wiring to know whether the house is insurable.
A correctly installed 3-way switch will not trip a breaker. If using a 3-way switch trips your circuit breaker, the ground wire might be touching something it should not be, there could be a short in the wiring, a wire could be loose, or the wrong wires are connected to the wrong locations on the switch. If you cannot easily see the problem, such as a loose wire, contact an electrician to fix the issue.
A piggyback circuit breaker, also known as a tandem or double-stuff breaker, combines two separate circuits into a single slot in a breaker panel. This design allows adding more circuits without a larger panel, making it a space-saving solution. Each breaker in the piggyback unit operates independently, protecting two circuits in one standard breaker slot. This is especially useful in older panels with limited space for additional breakers.
No, sconces don’t have to be hardwired, but they can be for a more permanent solution. Sconces come in various styles, sizes, and finishes as well as types of installation. Plug-in wall sconces can be plugged into a nearby outlet, and battery-powered sconces can be mounted to the wall.
