Electrical
"perplexing job to start. Two breakers kept popping. I replaced the breakers but still had the problem. I called mountain top and he returned my call within minutes. He arrived at the promised time and worked non stop until he found the problem, tracing different wires and circuits until he found the problem in the attic. once he found the problem it was corrected it quickly. I would recommend this electrician to anyone who wants quality work from a really great young man."

"Ty went over an above in every category . He answered his phone , showed up on time , diagnosed an issue with with current ceiling fan and repaired it. He also discovered that their were two bad switches that caused the failure in the first place. He saved me over $300 by me not having to buy a new ceiling fan. I would recommend TY for any electrical project. Good young man !"

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.
