"Waibel installed three electrical outlets in each of my three bedrooms and two additional outlets in the dining room. The workmanship was good and the price was very reasonable. As a bonus, they also let me know where I had old-fashioned knob-and-tube wiring in the exterior walls so I could avoid those areas when I have the house insulated."

"I had an estimate done on some electric work, and James Pinson did an excellent job. He was very thorough, clear with his suggestions, and the pricing was very competitive. Based on James's visit and the estimate he provided, I chose Mr. Electric to complete the work."

"We absolutely loved using Safe Electric! Bob, Eric, and Don were extremely knowledgable and treated us with the upmost respect! They walked with us at the end of each day to show us the progress and make sure everything was still in line with what we were wanting. We had electric ran to a shed, a panel upgrade and the main wire from the meter replaced. We are extremely pleased with the quality of their work and professionalism of the guys! We won't use anybody else!"

"Terry was fantastic to work with. He was even willing to come out on a Sunday, working around our busy schedules. He installed a mantle mount mm540 above my fireplace to mount my Samsung 60 tv. It is perfect with all cables concealed. I had others quote me around the same price (some higher), but tell me they would leave a large hole in my wall I would need to repair. Terry said absolutely not...that is not professional. He truly was the epitome of a professional, he was meticulous in his install and made sure everything was cleaned up before he left. He was very friendly. Definitely one of the better experiences we have had with any contract work we have had done in our home. I am so glad we found Tery and his business Techelp4you. Would definitely recommend to others and will be hiring him for future work on our next home."

"I recently moved into a new home with some electrical issues, and I had been searching for an electrician for several weeks. I interviewed dozens of electricians and could not find anyone that felt right for me and that I could trust. I had several issues in the home, the first of which I wanted to tackle was the panel and service.
I saw an Angie's list deal and contacted Jeremy. He responded right away. He came out the same day to look at the panel and had his team out that same week to complete the work. He was the most responsive and most thorough of the 10+ electricians I received quotes from or talked to. He is not only an excellent electrician but is also a superior communicator and highly responsive.
All of the other electricians I spoke with were anywhere from 4+ to 8+ weeks out with work and frequently did not bother getting back with me on quotes or questions. Jeremy was no more than 2 weeks out and always responded when I had a question or concern.
As for the work done, I was very impressed with the quality of work that Jeremy and his team did. I will be using Undefined Heights for all of my future electrical needs, and I suggest you do the same. Jeremy and his team get an A+ in my book. Thanks Jeremy!

"Excellent experience from start to finish. He replaced two ceiling fans in separate bedrooms, and the work looks phenomenal. He arrived early, which was incredibly helpful with my work schedule, was professional and personable throughout, and completed the job much faster than I expected without any issues at all. Everything was installed flawlessly, cleanly, and with obvious attention to detail. Very polite, very professional, and genuinely easy to work with. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for quality electrical work, and I will definitely hire him again."

It’s important to ask an electrician a few questions before you commit to hiring them so you can make an informed decision as a consumer. If you’re getting estimates or considering hiring an electrician, ask them these questions:
Are you a full-time electrician?
Are you bonded, licensed, and insured?
What level of experience do you have as an electrician?
Can you please share three references?
Do you do residential or commercial electrical work?
What kinds of electrical work are you most familiar with?
Will any subcontractors be performing the work?
Are permits and inspections required?
Who is responsible for obtaining permits and inspections?
What is your schedule?
Do you offer a guarantee or warranty on your work?
Will you sign a do-not-exceed clause to keep the job within the budget?
Tipping an electrician is not a requirement nor is it expected, as they build a fair wage into the price of the job. It’s up to your discretion. There are no set rules for tipping electricians, but if they did a great job and you’re so inclined to tip 10% to 15%, it will likely be received with thanks.
Yes, you should get a quote or an estimate from an electrician. Most electricians offer free estimates or quotes. When getting quotes, do your research and verify each electrician’s license. Get quotes from three different electricians to compare. If the prices or items listed appear different on the quotes, ask the electrician to clarify. Learning as much as you can about the electrical work you want done will help you get the most accurate estimate.
Qualified, licensed electricians will charge from $50 to $100 per hour. The cost to hire an electrician for emergency visits may range from $100 to $200 per hour because this urgent service usually takes place during off hours and may require an electrician to leave or reschedule jobs they’re currently working on. Scheduling work on holidays or during periods of high customer demand, like after a major storm, will also lead to higher rates or extra fees.
Yes, although there are different types of electricians, they must be licensed, certified, and in most cases insured. States have different requirements for electrician licensing and certifications. In some cases, there may be licensing requirements at the local level, but not the state level. It’s always a good practice to confirm requirements with your local municipality. If licensing is not required in your area, you may pay more for a licensed electrician with experience than one who is not licensed or certified, but you’re likely to get a better end result for your project.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
