"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."

"Can't say enough about ION Electric. Kris the owner is absolutely amazing. As we were going into the memorial day Holiday (2019) - my wife had noticed lights flickering and creating a strobe effect. The lights and a major part of our upstairs circuit then went completely out. We were at a loss since this was the Friday right before the long Holiday. As you can imagine virtually NO ONE wants to respond to an emergency at this time. Plus it was after hours. I went to Angies's list, got a couple companies and started calling. No other company returned my call. All of them had voice mail saying they were done for the day - and none returned my call. Kris at ION was the only one that returned the call. Not only did he return the call, we patiently and methodically walked us thru a diagnosis of what could be happening. What truly impressed me was that he was concerned for our safety over the long weekend as he felt this could be a potential fire hazard. He mentioned that he had plans for the weekend - but was seriously trying to figure out how he could still come over and personally check it out. After more over the phone diagnosing he finally felt comfortable that we would probably be OK thru the long weekend but promised to pull some of his staff from very important jobs first thing Tue. (after the Holiday). Kris was true to his word - got someone over our house and it turned out to be the best case scenario that he was hoping for which was a loose neutral. Within an hour we were back up and Kris only charged us $200. However, all that aside, the thing that really, really stuck with me was Kris' genuine concern for our safety and his willingness to change important plans both personally and with other clients to make sure he took care of us. Needles to say, I won't be looking any further for electrical contractors. Kris and ION are AWESOME!!!"

Lighting questions, answered by experts

The easiest and best way to power your outdoor lights is with the use of outdoor outlets. Most building codes now require exterior outlets in homes, so you likely already have outdoor outlets available to plug into. However, you can have these outlets installed if your space doesn’t currently include them.

No, you should not leave LED Christmas lights up all year. While the LED lights themselves are very durable, their wiring and casings can be as vulnerable as any Christmas lights. They’re subject to drying out, experiencing cold or sun damage that causes them to crack, and even damage caused by gnawing pests. (The same is true of incandescents.) If you want your lights to last the years that they’re rated for, bring them inside after Christmas is over. 

If half of a string of Christmas lights is out, it is likely because of a single burned-out, loose, or broken bulb within that section. Long strands of lights often contain more than one circuit, so when one bulb fails, it can cause the entire circuit (or half the strand) to go dark. To fix this, inspect the unlit section and test each bulb to ensure it is tight and functioning properly. Replacing the faulty bulb or repairing a damaged shunt will typically solve the problem.

You can take a few steps to prolong the life of your holiday lights. Make sure to replace burnt-out bulbs as quickly as possible to avoid overloading the rest of the circuit and knocking out more lights. Before packing them up each year, plug each strand into the wall to confirm everything is still working. Wrap the lights carefully back into their original packaging or something similar—winding a strand tightly together or leaving it to hang loose in a storage bin can lead to frayed or damaged wiring. 

There are tons of different types of landscape lighting available, including the choice between solar and wired, incandescent and LED, and a variety of colors. Specific types of lighting include:

  • Pathway lights: $50–$150 per fixture

  • String lights: $50–$150

  • Low-voltage lights: $90–$150 per fixture

  • Porch lights: $65–$250 per fixture

  • Floodlights: $75–$250 per fixture

  • Downlights: $100–$400 per fixture

  • Uplights: $100–$400 per fixture

  • Security lights: $ 350–$500 per fixture

  • Lamp posts: $400–$1,100 per lamp post
