    "Al Angrisani is GREAT. He came on time. He diagnosed a problem that had stumped two other electricians. He came up with a brilliant fix for the problem. His crew came and did the work. They were fast, tidy and polite. The work involved changing old halogen ceiling fixtures that were charring the ceiling to LED fixtures. Al found fixtures that fit the existing fixture holes so I didn't need a new ceiling and completed the work, which included installing new dimmer switches with a minimum of effort. He also installed motion detector LED fixtures in some closets. AND he repaired an antique fixture. Al is an old school guy: he knows his business; he provides excellent work; and he does what he says. I will hire him for any future electrical issues."

    "Needed new shower head installed and leaking/not working shower and bathtub facets repaired in an 88 year old bathroom. The first plumber who came said had to bust up tile, cut wall, replace all new piping and facets, repair wall, install new tile and on and on. "Going to be very expensive." My response: "not happening." Called Mike Wallace. He was upfront from the start giving me pricing (over the phone) for visit and first 3 hours of labor if I agreed with his plan. Turns out all I needed was new valve seats and stem and new shower head. I sent him pic of shower head I wanted; and he brought it with him. Job done same day in a few hours! He said "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." Now that's my kind of plumber! Give Mike a try, don't think you'll regret it."

    "After purchasing my electric vehicle, I initially utilized standard charging at home as well as charging stations to power my car, so I knew I had to upgrade to a level 2 charger as soon as possible. As a result, I called three electricians, but selected Agustin of Electric City, the third electrician, immediately upon speaking with him as he answered my questions, asked questions regarding my electrical set-up and needs, as well as presented options that could be further discussed upon a visit. I found Agustinâ  s approach to place me at ease as it countered the other electricians who insisted on a paid visit, applicable to services rendered of course, or an initial visit before they could discuss options or answer questions. Upon Agustin's visit, he revisited our initial discussion as we walked the garage and areas of discussion. Agustin provided all options for increasing the charge output and even options for a system upgrade to 200 amps when I expressed concerns regarding drawing too much power with additional electrical upgrades that are planned for the near future. At no point did Agustin insist upon me upgrading the system, which I appreciated as I did not experience any pressure to decide one way or the other. Within a week, Agustinâ  s crew arrived to upgrade the system to 200 amps, install the level 2 charger I purchased (Lectron), and install an outlet for my electric dryer. Throughout the entire process Agustin was prompt, responsive to calls, considerate and flexible when scheduling, as well as communicative as each stage of work was completed. His crew was also professional, efficient, thorough, and careful. Moreover, I am satisfied with the final product and its cost; I have attached photos of the work for reference. If I ever require additional electrical work or know of someone who needs an electrician, I would, without reservation, recommend Agustin, Christian, and the other repairman of Electric City. Thank you all!"

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.
