"Dealing with Elcon Electric was truly a pleasure. First, the scheduling department had John come to our home at a time that was convenient to us. He arrived as promised and clearly ran through the estimate, permitting process and FPL's involvement. He went on to mention that it would likely be necessary to cutout a portion of the drywall that we would be responsible for replacing. Fortunately, the additional cutout was not required. Over the course of the next several weeks, the scheduling and permitting department kept us informed of the estimated installation date. Once confirmed, Roman, the electrician, arrived as scheduled, performed the installation flawlessly and left our home in perfect condition with a brand new electrical panel. Would definitely hire again and recommend to our friends and relatives."

Customers say: Quality work

"The electrician that responded to our home not only fixed the problem we originally called about but fixed a light swithch problem that we had since we purchased the home in 2004. He was very knowlegable and efficient. Went right to the problem and corrected it and fully explained what he did as he was doing it. Very satisfied with the technician that responded and I would not hesitate to call Bell South Electric in the future. They are on my will call list. Ed Fischer"

"We had been having some serious electrical issues for a while. Not realizing the severity of the situation until our entire house started flickering and our panel would sizzle, spark and arc when next to it. We grew concerned as the panel was located on the outside wall connected to our daughters room. We did some research and found out that all of our lines would need to be brought up to 2020 MID code and required 30 ft. of underground trenching, making us responsible for all of the fees associated. We called a bunch of electrical companies that didn't even want to take our job because of how big of an undertaking it was. We then came across Del Rio Electric and their amazing reviews. I called and Rick answered right away, he introduced himself as the owner which was impressive to us given the current times and how busy he was! We told him we were underground and he knew exactly what we were talking about and told us exactly what needed to be done as our job requires a lot of patience. He stayed on the phone with us for over 30 mins giving us reassurance and that in itself made me feel like we were ready to decide to move forward with the process. We chose to replace our entire panel because of how bad of shape our 50 year old Zinsco panel was burnt up. His pricing is the best in town and the estimate did not change, and he was 100% open and honest! As we waited for the 1-800 Dig process, and MID inspection process to move forward he kept us in the loop and was very transparent about the timeline as we had to follow protocol. He even sent us all the permit approvals as he received them keeping us well informed. He even temporarily fixed the main breaker that was melted to the panel to fix the power until the panel replacement. As soon as Rick got the approval to be able to start digging our trench, they were out that next morning at 7am! We were met by Rick and Nick, and man did they work hard. That dirt was so hard and they chipped away at it until they were 39 inches deep and 30 feet long with this trenching to lay the new conduit. They never once complained, always smiling and so sweet. To say we appreciate them is just not enough. Once the trenching and inspections were done he let us know right away we were clear for panel replacement. We planned to be gone for three days as power had to be cut to put in the panel. It was done in less that 2 days. Most of that was waiting for MID inspection scheduling. Their work was impeccable and very clean. The new 200 amp panel is amazing and we are forever grateful! Thank you so much Rick and Nick for all you did for our family. Highly recommend this company for all your electrical needs."

"This Company was great. The 4.5 star has nothing to do with workmanship. However, i think the price is a tad steep for an electrical outlet. But, i guess thats the going rate. Doesnt mean i have to agree with it. Not giving a 5 star only beacause i feel the price is ridiculous."

FAQs for electrical service projects in Port Saint Lucie, FL

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.
