    "Quick response, quick to schedule, very efficient to get work done. Project required work in crawl space and through garage walls, and wasnâ t a problem at all. Glen was helpful, honest and extremely competitive on price. He even cut the price more after telling me he accidentally charged me twice for labor. I already liked the first price! Iâ ll be using them again."

    "Hector with Red Fox Electric was absolutely incredible. He asked for my visual approval for all light fixtures once replaced and didnâ t assume I wanted them exactly where the other lights used to be. Hector made excellent recommendations during the process like adding a dimmer to our kitchen light, which I hadnâ t even thought of as an option before. Lastly, he was so kind, funny and personable throughout his time in my home. By the time he left, it felt like we were old friends. I typically dread having strangers in my house but it was a pleasant experience. The pricing of services was also right on target. I will be using Red Fox Electric exclusively from now on!"

    "Aaron and Adam at IRC were fantastic electricians to work with when replacing my home's panel and installing a new subpanel for an ADU. They are clearly experts in their field and take pride in their work, which is apparent in the quality of their installs. They show up when they say they will and get the job done right - I've been recommending IRC to all my friends and family."

    "I got three estimates, but Elevation Electric was both the most timely to respond and the most cost effective. Once I made a decision, Joe worked quickly to meet my scheduling needs and get the job done. Joe was prompt, friendly and professional, and was able to exceed my expectations with the new electrical outlets he installed in our garage. We will likely hire him back out to install a light fixture and switch in the future. Highly recommended!"

    "They started immediately upon arrival. They quoted a 6 hour job but they got it done in 3.5 hours. They were very courteous and personable and they followed through making sure every detail was done from their part, the inspector's part and then telling me what to expect from Xcel Energy as well. They also installed an outdoor outlet."

    "When we learned very quickly during our basement remodel/Installing an electric car charger that electricity was something best left to the experts, Jason was our first call--and our only call. We planned to get bids from several electricians, but once we met Jason at Rocky Mountain High Electric, we stopped searching. Not only was he prompt, honest, and very courteous, he was also extremely professional which set our minds at ease. Jason was very upfront with project costs and time; He even had everything finished well ahead of what was promised. Jason even sent us a thank you note in appreciation for our business. It is really rare to find his level of work ethic (and commitment to a job well done) these days. Thank you for your help, Rocky Mountain High Electric!"

    "Decided to contact Dutch Creek Electrical after seeing one of their trucks on the road. The process was very easy. They offer an estimate and installation on the same day of service. During the home service, I was given tips on other electrical issues in my home as well as education on easy electrical fixes I could execute on my own. A great company I would highly recommend and will use again in the future!"

    Electrical

    "Travis was the only electrician that called me about my project. Just bought a house and I had removed my low ceiling in my 1982 kitchen, and needed the wires to be moved to install drywall. He and Mike came that day and I explained what I needed and also showed them other projects I had in mind. Asking if I can get a quote for the kitchen and the other projects. Travis emailed me an estimate. I accepted to do all the work and they came the next day! The project finished a day earlier than expected. Since we agreed on an hourly rate, I saved a great amount of money. Travis and Mike are definitely my go-to electricians now and I have already referred True Electric to my family and friends. Call Travis, you won’t regret it :) Big thank you Travis and Mike, you really did an amazing job! Appreciate it."

    "We recently had this company come out and install 240v/50A adapters in our garage for electric vehicle(EV), RV and welder compatibility. I worked with Thomas through the entirety of the project, as he came out and performed the inspection, estimates, and the actual install of the wiring and electrical box updates. Thomas is very familiar with EV electrical work and did an excellent job on all fronts. He was quick to answer or return our calls and his pricing was competitive with the other bids. He clearly explained what was needed to complete the work and his work quality was superb. I learned a lot about electrically retrofitting a garage for these types of application and was appreciative of his sharing of knowledge. We re very pleased with the results and wouldn t hesitate to hire him again on any future home electrical projects."

    "Seth protected our business when a transformer blew on Sunday morning and knocked out our cooler. He rented and hitched up a generator, delivered it to our business same day and kept our cooler running. This protected us against a potential huge product loss. I would recommend Seth and Big Armer Electric for any of your commercial electrical needs. He communicated each step of the process, coordinated for a replacement transformer and completed the job the very next morning. Completely blown away by the service! This is the 2nd project we have used his company on, and I will definitely be recommending him to anyone looking for a top notch electrician."

Frequently asked questions

  • An electrician’s cost per hour comes in between $50 and $100. It’ll vary depending on your location and the type or professional you hire. Areas with a higher cost of living can expect to pay on the higher end of that scale. Licensing level may also increase the price.
  • Usually you’ll pay a higher rate for the first hour. This covers their travel and time expense. Emergency or after-hours rates are usually higher too – expect to pay an emergency fee of up to $300 plus a higher hourly rate.

Electricians do a fair amount of larger remodeling and new construction projects but also common residential projects including:

For cost information related to the above tasks, visit our Electrical Cost Guide.

  1. Do you have a license to perform electrical work in this state?
    All states require an electrical license or work performed under a Master Electrician. You should also ask how many on the job hours of experience they have.
  2. Do you have insurance?
    Never use one who isn’t insured. You can ask to see proof of insurance.
  3. Do you have prior work references?
    You might skip this for small jobs like installing a light or outlet. For larger projects, always get references.
  4. What are your rates?
    Always ask up front. Getting a detailed quote up front is the best way to go.
  5. Who is going to do the actual work?
    Often, a Master Electrician will come out to diagnose and bid on projects, but they have their apprentice and journeyman electricians do the work. This isn’t a terrible thing, in fact it’s common practice. The Master’s license is on the line with any work he supervises.
  6. Is your work warrantied or guaranteed?
    Any reputable company or contractor warranties their work, usually for at least a year.
  7. Are you usually on time?
    Overbooking is a frequent problem with electrical work. Often, a service call goes long, and they end up showing up at your home late. This common complaint is easily remedied with an up-front and honest discussion. If they can’t be on time, make sure they’ll call.

1. Don’t Be Misled by an Electrician’s Hourly Rates

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 Charges

Rates 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 Together

When 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.

4. How to Prepare & What to Know Before the Electrician Arrives
  • Be as thorough and detailed in describing your needs to your contractor. The more they know, the quicker the job will go.
  • Before they arrive, prepare a precise list of items you want serviced. Electricians have budgeted their time for a service call. They don’t have time for additional requests once they are on site.
  • Make sure the electrical panel box is accessible. You’ll pay for the time it takes to access it.
  • Clear away fragile items, knickknacks and furniture from areas where you expect the them to work.
  • If you have questions about the project, ask them before they start. Most are happy to run you through the problem and the process of fixing it.
  • Ask about potential issues after the work is complete. During a service call a professional will spot any potential hazards.
  • You’ll lose power to parts of your home while they work. Be prepared to pause anything you’re doing during the service call.
  • In most cases you’ll have the option to either pay at the time of service or have a bill sent to you. You’ll be able to pay with cash, credit and sometimes check.
5. Install Money-Saving Electrical Fixtures
  • By switching from ordinary incandescent light fixtures or bulbs to fluorescent or LED ones, you can substantially reduce energy consumption in your home.
  • Motion detector switches can help you save money on outdoor lighting while at the same time providing very cost-effective security to your home.
  • Creative landscape lighting and indoor accent lighting can make your home more appealing to you, your guests and potential buyers in the future.
