"This is a truly great company. They provide great customer service and spend time explaining the details and answering questions. My husband obsessed about every single detail and could not deny that it was a no brainer. Our first electric bill since installing the panels was a CREDIT! I was not expecting that. If you have ever considered solar, seriously, just do it. Long term, you can not go wrong."

"Great experience with Midwest Electric. They installed a new panel in my garage and a 220v outlet for a table saw. Did a great job. Very courteous. Prompt, started when they said and completed when promised. Pricing fairly reasonable. I would use them again."

"Great company! I talked to Rob and he said within a few weeks and his team was early and was able to finish the job within the day. Derek was our installer and even hooked up an automatic shutoff for the lights and explained how to use it which was very helpful. The lights are way brighter than I expected. I have been putting up my own for years and didn't realize how much better professional lights are. I signed on for 2 years and will to use them in the future."

"We are very pleased with the work performed by Twin Cities Electric. We added a kitchen island and in the process needed a bunch of electrical work done. We didn't plan out the electrical and needed them to come out on short notice. They were able to come out the week before Thanksgiving to get phase I done, thankfully, so we were able to get the rest of the construction done over the long weekend and be ready for phase II.
They did everything we wanted and helped with some of the decisions. Like placement of the can lights... who knew you shouldn't put them right over the working areas... them, not me! :)
These guys do the extras like cleaning up and preventing big messes.
They were out here last year doing a bunch of work and there wasn't a questions that we were calling them back to help with this project.  Thanks for the lights!! We no longer live in darkness!

"Replacing the staircase light fixture was a difficult job requiring the use of a ladder, a step ladder and an aluminum plank to create a level workspace in order to access the light. The new pendant was lowered by 6 inches, compared to the old one, to allow easy exchange of light bulbs. The electrician was creative in solving some installation problems.  He also saved me some money by advising me that some other electrical work I was considering might not be necessary."

"I moved into a 1931 home this Summer. It needed a lot of work and we needed a lot of help...fast!! Service Today came to the rescue. They have been at my home at least 6 times over the last 6 months fixing electrical, plumbing and heating in our hone. They negotiated the work clearly and fairly and they completed all of the work as contracted on time, sometimes the very same day they gave me the estimate. All of their service agents (10 different men worked at my home) did a great job and it was a pleasure to have them in my home working. I highly recommend Service Today!! I have a monthly contract with them and I will continue to use them in the future."

FAQs for electrical service projects in Cleveland, MN

There is often some confusion about the type of work these professionals do. They only work on electrical systems such as outlets, lighting fixtures and electrical panels – they aren’t appliance repairmen.

There are three types of electricians: Master, Journeyman and Apprentice. Electrical licensing varies quite a bit by state. Some have licenses for apprentices and some do not. Some have a master’s rank while others stop at journeyman. Despite the differences, they all require a minimum amount of experience and usually classroom time.

  • Apprentice electricians aren’t usually licensed and spend 4 years learning the trade. Throughout that time, they work on a wide range of projects to learn to become a Journeyman. They’ll do basic work like installing fixtures and replacing outlets all the way to assisting in wiring a home. Regardless of the type of project, they must always be supervised by a Journeyman or Master electrician.

  • Journeymen work without supervision. In a few states, this is the highest level available and they can do all levels of work from wiring a new home to installing a light. In some states, they need a separate electrical contractor license to run a business. In places with a master’s level, a journeyman can do all work besides design new electrical systems.

  • Master electricians usually manage a shop, design new electrical systems in new construction and oversee both Journeyman and Apprentices. They typically bid new projects. Though they focus on larger projects, it’s not unheard of for a homeowner to request a Master Electrician for a house call. If you do, expect to spend up to 25% more for the visit.

Generally, you don’t tip electricians, but that’s not to say they don’t appreciate it if you do. You can offer them something to drink or eat, like coffee and donuts. Most will appreciate it if you do.

The education and certifications required to become an electrician vary by state, though they generally follow this list:

  1. Apprentice

    • Does not always require a license depending on the state.

    • Learns on the job under Journeyman and Master Electricians.

    • Usually needs 4 years on-the-job training before they can test for a Journeyman license. Many states also require a technical degree to advance.

    • Always require supervision.

  2. Journeyman

    • Needs between 8,000 to 10,000 hours of on-the-job training and usually 500 to 1,000 hours of classroom experience.

    • Can usually supervise apprentices.

    • They can diagnose and repair electrical problems.

  3. Master

    • Achieved after an additional two years (4,000 hours) working as a Journeyman and taking the Master Electrician Exam.

    • Besides diagnosing and repairing electrical systems, they also design them. In most places they run shops and inspect Journeyman and Apprentice work.

    • Not a recognized rank in all states.

  4. Electrical Contractor License is an optional license in some states for a Master Electrician to run a business. Some states have this instead of the Master license.

Electricians make an average of $26 per hour but it ranges with experience and licensing. An apprentice may make about half that while a Master Electrician may hit closer to $40 per hour. This figure represents how much they make; not how much they bill. Their salary is only one component of their costs. They must also figure in overhead, taxes, equipment, insurance and several other expenses.

Leave electrical work to the professionals. Electrical systems are complex and potentially hazardous when not handled and installed correctly. If it were easy, it wouldn’t take 4 years to become a journeyman or 6 years for a master’s license. If you are determined to forge ahead yourself, understand home electrical safety before beginning any project.Even for simple common electrical projects, a licensed pro is best. Not only is it safer, but contractors guarantee and insure their work. Hire a professional to keep your home’s electrical systems functioning properly and safely.
