Customers say: Quality work

"Tim was highly professional and punctual in fact they showed up an hour early. I wasn’t able to be home while Tim was performing the work. But he kept me in the loop the entire time. He advices a better alternative to solve my electrical outlet needs. Tim was very responsive with addressing all of the questions I asked via text leading up to the install day. Over the last couple of years I’ve had electrical work done by three other electricians two of which were good. Overall the level of service Tim provided was above and beyond."

"They got in touch with me quick to learn about the problem, and the tech called me soon after, far early into the window they gave me for a call-back. Most importantly, they understood and fixed the problem — my iMac's Apple Mail conking out. The tech helped dump out several hundred thousand items to make room for new messages. I'm still not sure how my disk got so full when I use the computer normally, but Nathan got my Apple Mail rolling again. Initially I was worried because they were far away and tech was from another faraway location. And, I thought they were a bit pricey a first; it felt strange to pay such a sum before they did anything. But in the end, the money was appropriate given the time it took to work on and fix the problem, which Nathan did diligently. His remedy twice required them to let the computer do its thing — once for about 20 minutes and again for about an hour... but they did call back when they said they would to check on the progress. I would definitely hire them again."

"Rich and his team provided end-to-end services and were kind, professional, prompt, and most importantly did everything they said they were going to do.
From a frantic phone call (Help!  Our pipes leaked!) from out of state to joining his team after they started drying out the house to the very end as they were testing functionality of our new door, CustomCraft was there, anticipated our questions, and provided quality, skilled people to get the job done.
Thank you CustomCraft!

Electrical questions, answered by experts

You shouldn’t hook up a solar panel directly to a battery. That can damage the solar battery and your appliances over time. Instead, install a charge controller between your solar panel and solar battery. Charge controllers regulate voltage, prevent overcharging, and minimize the amount of electrical current to protect your battery from voltage spikes.

The main types are 15-amp 120-volt outlets (2-prong and 3-prong), 20-amp 125-volt outlets, and 240-volt outlets for large appliances. Safety types include GFCI, AFCI, tamper-resistant, and weather-resistant outlets. Convenience types include switched, combination, USB, smart, and rotating outlets.

The most common type of electrical outlet is a 3-prong outlet, which has two flat blades (one is wider than the other) and a round grounding pin. Older homes typically have 2-prong outlets that aren’t as safe as more modern options and are generally not up to current electrical codes.  Other outlets you can find in your home include 20A, 125 volt varieties for larger appliances like refrigerators or washing machines. 

There are also GFCI outlets, which protect against electrical shock in wet areas, such as bathrooms and kitchens, and arc fault circuit interrupter (AFCI) outlets, which protect against electrical fires caused by arcing.

There are a few reasons your lights may be on, but the rest of your electrical outlets and appliances are not working. The first is that while one circuit blew out, the lights may be on another circuit than your other electrical fixtures. Alternatively, your powerless appliances may be plugged into a GFCI outlet that was tripped and needs to be reset. If these issues aren’t responsible for the problem, you may have dead outlets or a wiring issue. Either way, you should contact an electrician to identify and fix the issue.

Electrical fixes are best handled by a licensed electrician, but it’s possible to release a wire connection on your own. Be sure to always turn off the power to the outlet at the circuit breaker before beginning your project to avoid electric shock. Carefully insert the tip of a flat screwdriver into the rectangular hole beneath the wire. Hold the outlet in the palm of your other hand. Pull out the wire as you apply pressure with the screwdriver.
