    "I LOVE MY NEW LIGHTS AND MY MOTION LIGHT SWITCH! I had Bryce from Ben Franklin Electric add lights in two of my bedrooms. The lights changed the whole room and made it so much better. He installed a remote light switch that turns lights on and off remotely. I use it everyday. Now when I go to bed at night I can read and when I am ready to go to sleep I don't have to get out of bed to turn off my lights. It is wonderful! He put in a track light that he put on a timer so that I have light on my picture right when I want it. He put in a 3 way light switch in my basement . I didn't want to have sheetrock cut so he put in a wireless switch that works prefect. I also had him put in a motion sensor light switch in my garage so when I walk in my garage the light turns on automatically. Bryce knows about all the latest new things that make life more convenient. I would recommend Ben Franklin Electric to anyone wanting electrical work. You won't be disappointed."

    "Ryan with RyCo Electric was such a humble and knowledgeable guy. I needed an outlet installed outdoors good enough for a hot tub. He knew exactly what to do, had the best price, and didn't try to sell me on a dozen other things I didn't need. They were able to fit our project in their schedule quick and treated me (and my dog!) with kindness and respect when they came. They explained every step of the way and noticed some dangerous scorching on my previous equipment. I really liked that they kept me informed about their process and the equipment they installed and the timeline. I've already got a few more projects lined up with RyCo Electric because I was so impressed with their business practices and the price couldn't be beat!"

He put in 8 new can lights in my kitchen and living room, Installed a fan in the garage, hung a TV on a bedroom wall and fixed several faulty light switches. I would hire him again if the need came up. and would definitely recommend him and HomWize to my family and friends."

    Electrical Wiring or Panel Upgrade, Electrical Switches, Outlets & Fixtures - Install or Repair

    "I returned from a week long trip to find that my garage freezer had stopped working and the food was all thawed out. The Christmas lights on the house also were not working. We checked the breaker box and troubleshooted he best we could, but the outlet kept tripping. I looked online, and decided that the appliance was probably just broken. When I called David's Electric, he walked me through the problem over the phone, had me unplug everything, and finally discovered that the problem was the Christmas lights! He explained how if any water at all gets in to a part of the electrical wiring that the outlet will continue to trip. We discovered soon afterwards that the water was in the extension cord we used for the Christmas lights, replaced it, and now they are working too! We didn't need to buy a new freezer, learned how to diagnose such a problem in the future, and got the problem fixed for free! So I didn't witness the technician's own work in person, but next time I need electrical help, I will call David's for sure."

How much do electricians typically cost?

  • Provo, Utah Average
    $324
  • Typical Range
    $166 - $612
  • Low End - High End
    $70 - $1,000

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.
