"I had a great experience working with M&L Electrical Solutions. They were professional, communicated well, and completed the electrical work in a timely manner. They installed the exit signs and handled the wiring efficiently, and everything looks clean and well done. They also provided a referral for drywall repair, which I appreciated. Overall, very reliable and easy to work with. I would definitely use them again."

"Joe was a great help with our electrical projects. We had several smaller projects that we needed done in our new house. He recommended some ways to simplify our projects, quoted a reasonable cost, and performed great work. He even did a great job cleaning up after finishing. I would highly recommend him for your project!"

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."

"Tree branch bent and ripped electrical lines from my house. After many, many phone calls Double U called me back and came out same day to inspect damage and determine exactly what they would need to repair the job. The company (Josh) kept in touch with me as we had to wait for the utility company to show up. Double U got everything fixed and even the utility company was very happy the way the work was done so that they could easily hook me up with power again. They were fast, efficient, friendly and explained everything fully so I really understood what was happening to my home."

"Elliott does great work for a great price. He installed a new 100 amp breaker box and updated some of the house wiring to accommodate the new service. He also wired the newly renovated basement with all the wiring and installed all the outlets, switches and drop ceiling LED lights that have dimmer capability. He is meticulous in what he does."

"Chris is a a real consonant professional who really knows what he is doing. Very well priced. He gives discounts for non-profit organizations. Works by remote which is very convenient, especially for people like me that don't live close to his office in Milwaukee. He was also the first computer technician that answered my request for services on Angie/Handy Man. He responded quickly. He made himself available on a Sunday which was also Labor Day weekend! Very unexpected., definitely not the norm! His demeanor is wonderful. Very patient, kind, considerate, respectful,. He tries to also be informative. He explains things so you'll have more knowledge if you need the same service again. I cannot do him justice without totally recommending him to anyone needing an excellent computer specialist/technician!! I will definitely be using him again. I have a small Clinical Counseling Practice, and he understood the quick timing that was necessary. He absolutely checks all the boxes! I have a small Clinical Practice and he understood that time was very important to me to get the work I needed done quickly for my business to run smoothly. Thank you Chris. It was such a nice experience working with you. I highly recommend that no one hesitates to contact you for any related computer issues!!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

While washers and dryers do not require a GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) outlet to function properly, electrical codes often mandate their use for safety. The National Electrical Code (NEC) requires GFCI protection for all outlets within six feet of a water source. This means a washer and dryer must be plugged into a GFCI outlet if they are installed in locations like a laundry room, utility room, garage, or basement. In other areas without a nearby water source, there is no specific requirement, but using a GFCI outlet is still recommended for extra peace of mind. It is always best to consult your local codes and regulations to ensure compliance and safety.

The average lifespan of a home electrical system is anywhere from 30 to 70 years or more, depending on the type of system you have. Modern electrical wiring, like aluminum or copper, can last 50 to 70 years while older types may need to be replaced sooner. Additionally, circuit breakers tend to last anywhere from 30 to 40 years, while electrical outlets need to be replaced every 10 to 25 years. 

Local electricians with experience in your area understand the local building codes, which is very important when doing new electrical work. They also have experience with the kind of electrical problems homes in your location may have, and even the components that were used in the original construction, which leads them to make faster and better decisions.

A faulty light switch can trip a breaker due to circuit overload or a short circuit. A faulty light switch may not always trip a breaker, so don’t use that as your only sign that something’s wrong. Always investigate the cause of a switch that isn’t working properly, feels hot to the touch, or is making unusual noises.

In the United States, home outlets support a standard 15 amps, but you can upgrade per outlet if necessary. Most single-family residential homes have a maximum overall amp rating, usually 100 to 200 amps. Very old houses may have less than 100 amps, but that’s rare. Large homes often come with amp services above 200 amps to support modern lifestyles.
