"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."

A low-voltage landscape lighting system using 15 to 20 LED lights for six hours a night will average about $5 to $10 a month in electricity costs. This is considered affordable lighting for many homeowners. Most modern landscape lights use LED bulbs, but some older styles may use halogen or incandescent bulbs, which can cost up to five times more than LEDs in electrical costs.
Although homeowners can turn off a breaker, it’s vital to follow safety precautions when doing so to prevent serious and potentially fatal injuries. For instance, you want to ensure there is no water on the floor when you touch the breaker and wear protective gear such as safety glasses. Anytime you deal with anything electrical, it’s always best to be as safe as possible.
Incandescent lights are glass bulbs with metallic filaments inside, while LEDs feature “light emitting diodes” that illuminate when they come in contact with an electrical current. You can buy either for your Christmas lights, but note that LED lights are more energy-efficient and have a longer lifespan.
A ceiling light will usually have two or three wires: black, white, and sometimes green. Black wires are positive, or hot, while white wires are negative, or neutral. The green wire is the grounding wire.
When you’re wiring the light, connect black to black, white to white, and green to the grounding screw.
No, you should always use proper electrical wire caps to safely cap off electrical wires. Electrical tape isn’t as durable as electrical caps and can deteriorate and separate over time, exposing the live wires. The only way to use electrical tape for this project is to wrap it around the caps themselves to reinforce them and create an even stronger connection, preventing an electrical emergency.
