"Matt came right out and fixed two light switches that weren't working for one of my customers. He was quick, efficient and very professional. We especially appreciate it because it was done a Friday and we called at the last minute. We highly recommend them and will call them for all of our electrical needs in the future!"

"I whole heartedly recommend the Engelharts. They've been out four times to do various projects for me as I thought them up. They've been inventive and creative in coming up with some of their solutions. I should also note that they know their way around wireless switches and LED lighting. They've been prompt and they've gotten the job done on time if not earlier. And they clean up after themselves."

"Smoothly and efficiently. The permit and required inspection appointments were all arranged prior to the appointment. Mike and Travis were organized and work really moved along without a hitch. Mike reviewed the work completed with me and instructed me in the use of my new panel and all house surge protector. Both gentlemen wore masks for safety and they left the house and yard looking great. Not a thing for me to do. Cardinal is an outstanding company and I am so glad I was referred to them. I now use them for all my heating, cooling and electrical needs."

"Hired Precision Power twice to help with various electrical needs… rewired my kitchen and then again to help with the finish trim outs. We will continue to hire him. Currently just waiting for our new chandelier to arrive so we can have him back out again! Thanks for the quality work and dependability!"

"We had a wonderful experience with Everlight Solar. Nick did a great job of going through and explaining everything and how it would all work. The crew does a fantastic job and they do it quickly. They even suggested a placement change of the panels on the spot to maximize my production. One thing I wish is that I had added a couple more panels to the system beyond what they recommended- just to get that extra going back into the grid. I have seen the cost savings in just one month on my utility bill. More sun would be better but I did record 74% less consumption for Sept. than the previous year! The days are getting shorter, so have to take that into account, I look forward to next year and seeing just how much more it can produce. I recommend Everlight Solar to anyone who is looking at installing a system. Feel free to use me as a referral too..."

Small jobs welcome

"They did great, swapped out an outlet so that it would work with our new AC, handled everything over text and asked detailed questions, and was super patient with the fact that I had no idea what I was doing. They were able to come out the next day and the outlet works and looks great, they were in and out pretty quickly and were super professional the whole time. Would highly recommend these guys, and would definitely go with them in the future if we need more work done. Also was super kind to ask if vacuuming was ok, or if it would freak our cats out, and our super grumpy little cat even felt comfortable coming out while he was around, too. Great experience overall. Thanks!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

No, a ceiling fan doesn’t have to be wired to a switch, but it’s often more convenient. You can use the included pull chain if your ceiling isn’t too high or install a remote module later, as they are a cheap, easy-to-install option that’ll let you control both the fan and light fixture.

If the outlet is a GFCI model, this is normal since these outlets have their own breakers that shut off when they encounter a problem—just hitting the reset button should solve the issue. Otherwise, the outlet could have bad wiring, or your circuit breaker could be having issues. If the issue started out of nowhere and is not on a GFCI outelt, it’s best to contact an electrician to diagnose the issue.

According to the National Electrical Code (NEC), GFCI outlets should be installed in wet or damp locations where they might be splashed with water or other liquids. This is to protect against ground faults, which are more common around water. Specific areas that require GFCI outlets include kitchens (especially near counters), bathrooms, laundry rooms, basements, garages, and all outdoor receptacles. Depending on local electrical codes, you may need at least one GFCI outlet in these rooms, or every outlet in the area may need to be GFCI protected.

Just as fluorescent lights are more efficient than incandescent lights, LED lights are more efficient to run than fluorescent lights. The specifics will vary from product to product, but LED lights are typically twice as efficient as equivalent fluorescent lights. A 13-watt CFL bulb can replace a 60-watt incandescent bulb, but a 6- to 8-watt LED bulb can offer the same amount of brightness. Fluorescent lights offer about 50 lumens per watt, while LEDs offer about 100 lumens per watt. LED light bulbs typically last two to three times as long as CFL bulbs, too. 

Smoke detectors come in two different options: hardwired or battery-operated. While hardwired units are attached directly to the home’s electrical system, a battery-operated smoke detector only needs a simple battery for operation and can be placed virtually anywhere in your home. Some homeowners may mistakenly think their battery-operated units are hardwired in because all their units are interconnected, but many battery-operated units can operate within a smoke alarm network in your home.
