FAQ<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Questions homeowners ask us<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Still not sure? Call us and ask for an electrician.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n\n
Do I need a permit for electrical work?<\/summary>\n

Many jobs, such as panel upgrades, rewires, new circuits and EV chargers, need a permit and an inspection. We tell you when a permit is needed and apply for it as part of the job.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n

Can I do small electrical jobs myself?<\/summary>\n

Please do not. Electrical work can cause shocks and fires, and work without a permit can fail an inspection. Even swapping a light fixture is safer with an electrician.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n

What counts as an electrical emergency?<\/summary>\n

Sparks, a burning smell, hot or buzzing outlets, water near wiring, or a loss of power that is not a utility outage. Keep clear and call us. If there is smoke or fire, leave the building and call 911.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n

How long does a typical job take?<\/summary>\n

A new outlet or fixture usually takes an hour or two, a panel upgrade about a day, and a full rewire several days depending on the size of the home. You get a time estimate with your quote.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n

Will you need to open up my walls?<\/summary>\n

We use existing routes where we can and keep openings small. If any patching will be needed, we tell you before we start.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n

When should I upgrade my electrical panel?<\/summary>\n

If breakers trip often, the panel feels warm or is very old, or you are adding an EV charger, a heat pump or a new kitchen, have it checked. We tell you honestly whether an upgrade is needed.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n\n
