"Wes installed a whole-house surge suppressor as well as an interlock kit, wiring, and outdoor wall inlet for a generator. As per the other reviews here, he was great. The whole thing was done efficiently and for a decent price, with clear communication and careful pandemic precautions throughout. Would recommend to anyone."

"Brian is an excellent carpenter and handyman. He is personable, a good listener and excellent at pointing out solutions we had not considered. Brian took on 3 outdoor carpentry projects. His work is precise and the work quality is impeccable. He was always on time, cleaned up the work areas, and never raised his price. We are so pleased with his work, we offered him a much larger project for 2024. We highly recommend Brian Kopf and look forward to working with him in the future. Five stars!"

"Navin showed up to fix our plumbing issue the same day. He called within 5 minutes of my inquiry, was here in 45 min for a free estimate and our shower was fixed before 5pm! He also tightened the bathroom faucet, removed the hair from the drain without us asking and fixed the bathroom fan while he was here too! This guy is AMAZING! 10 stars if I could!"

"Jeff arrived promptly at the agreed upon time. He was able to track down the source of the electical problem in an older home. Left the job site clean and his price was more than fair for the work done. I am having him back to do some work on another house and would recommend him to family and friends!"

Electricians do a fair amount of larger remodeling and new construction projects but also common residential projects including:
For cost information related to the above tasks, visit our Electrical Cost Guide.
A truly skilled, well-equipped professional with a truck full of parts that charges $100 an hour can be a much wiser choice than an inexperienced hack, working with inadequate tools and no parts, but charging much less. Often, more experienced professionals get the job done quickly with warrantied work.
2. Compare Travel ChargesRates reflect travel times. Travel charges can have a big impact on your costs and are in some ways easier to compare than hourly rates. Many electricians spend a third or more of their time navigating traffic on their way to a jobsite. Every contractor must find a way to pay for the expense of driving each day.
3. Bundle Repair Jobs TogetherWhen you feel it’s time to call a pro, review your list and then conduct a mini-inspection of your home. Look for faulty switches and dysfunctional or crowded outlets. When the electrician comes, you’ll save money and time by getting everything taken care of at once.
