Question 1

How do I choose the right electrician?

Accepted Answer

Electrical work is state-licensed — always confirm the electrician holds a current journeyman or master electrician license. Look for companies with strong Google ratings, reviews mentioning code-compliant work, and a practice of pulling permits for every job that requires one.

Question 2

What should I expect to pay for electrical work in my area?

Accepted Answer

Electricians typically charge $75–$150/hour. Common jobs: panel upgrade (100–200A) $1,200–$3,500; EV charger installation $500–$1,500; ceiling fan install $100–$250; adding an outlet $100–$300. Emergency after-hours work adds 1.5–2× the standard rate.

Question 3

How long does electrical work typically take?

Accepted Answer

Small repairs and outlet additions take 1–3 hours. EV charger and new circuit installs are typically a half-day. Panel upgrades and full rewires can run 1–3 days.

Question 4

What questions should I ask before hiring an electrician?

Accepted Answer

Ask for their license number, proof of liability insurance and workers' comp, whether they pull permits for the job, and if they guarantee their work. A licensed electrician should never hesitate to pull a permit — unpermitted work creates problems when selling your home.

Question 5

Are electricians on this directory screened?

Accepted Answer

All listings are sourced from Google Business Profiles and ranked by real Google ratings and total review counts. We never accept payment to alter rankings. Check each profile's rating and review volume, then independently verify their license with your state licensing board.

Question 6

What if I have a bad experience with an electrician?

Accepted Answer

Contact the company in writing, document the issue with photos, and request a remedy. If unlicensed work or code violations are involved, file a complaint with your state electrical licensing board. For billing disputes, dispute via your credit card issuer with written documentation.
