"The technician pinpointed the source of our electrical problem and resolved it. He explained what he was doing and answered all of our questions. We really appreciate the care and attention he gave to our project, which included installing a new bathroom ceiling fixture and checking the ballast on a kitchen fixture."

"As a Building & General Contractor myself Newgrange electric is one of my best electrical sub contractors. Eddie the owner is very hard working. Always reliable, extremely professional and maintains an office manager Nicole who knows what's going on, on all their projects so you always have someone to contact during business hours. Eddies crew is based of long time employees that are very knowledgeable in there work. Eddie will always get back to you even after business hours, which is not the norm for many vendors. We need more contractors like this. Joe Algeri, Orchard Builders & Construction & Skyline Plumbing & Heating."

"The experience I had with Antonio and his men were nothing but spectacular and world class… Antonio came personally to my home to scope out the project, suggested what I needed, and his men delivered they were professional. They were courteous. They cleaned up after themselves, and they were very cautious in respecting my home even to the point where they put drop cloths down on the floor because it was raining outside….. This ladies and gentlemen is how you want to be treated as a customer with the utmost respect, courtesy, fairness, and knowledge of the job!! thank you Antonio and the two gentlemen who came and did the electrical work from my house House you guys were amazing… if I ever need anything else from my home as far as electrical, you guys will be the first person I call.. I wish I could’ve gave them 10 stars… thanks fellas all the best.. Dino"

"Amazing service. Bernard and Devon came over and installed much needed electrical upgrades to my home. Came over at the time they said they would and completed the work swiftly. The price was more than fair and both electricians acted professionally."

"MDL Electric was a great Angie's List find! My tenant's washer stopped working in the middle of a load. I also needed to have 2 breakers and 6 GFI outlets replaced. Spoke to Miguel at 1:30 this afternoon. He was able to get a technician over there in about 30 minutes. He explained all that needed to be done and, less than 3 hours later, the work was finished and everything was left neat and clean! Very prompt and professional. Now THAT’s customer service! I wouldn't hesitate to use MDL Electric again or to recommend them to friends in the future. Thank you, Miguel!"

"I had made several calls to the original electrician that worked on my building in the past and after weeks of empty promises I decided to try HomeAdvisor and was connected with Current Electric. Literally within minutes of requesting information my phone rang in the store and it was the electrician. He said he would be out the next morning and showed up first thing as promised, provided a very fair quote and performed the service the day after I signed the quote. It was exactly the way it should be - I will use for all stores going forward."

FAQs for electrical service projects in Jersey City, NJ

In some states and municipalities, licensed and registered handypersons can change a light fixture and do minor electrical work. However, you should check with your state and local licensing boards before hiring a local handyperson. In most cases, it’s safer and more practical to hire an electrician for this job. It may cost more, but hiring a licensed electrician means they’ll get the work done to code.

Special light fixtures, known as damp-rated light fixtures, are recommended in bathrooms, particularly if they're near damp areas like showers and over the bathtub. However, in most locations, they’re not a strict requirement. For safety and longevity, damp-rated fixtures are a better choice. If you work with a lighting contractor in your area, they may be able to recommend the right kinds of fixtures for your space.

Yes, it’s possible to run a second light fixture to a switch, meaning the light switch would control more than one light fixture. Several factors can impact whether it’s possible and how much it will cost. In many cases, it may be easier and more affordable for the contractor to install independent light switches. Talk to your electrician about your idea to get their feedback.
