    "Project: remove old 220 line and replace with 110, install 3 outlets and two switches for deck lighting outside, install and wire for lamp above pool table and install two dimmer switches; 1 for can lights and 1 for light above pool table. I had contacted several electricians and described my project. Only two of the several electricians showed up and offered quotes; both quotes were a little high for the project. I contacted Bobo Electric, they scheduled an immediate evaluation and said they would have a quote by that evening in my e-mail. That evening I had the quote and to my surprise, a VERY reasonable quote. I contacted Bobo the next day and scheduled an appointment that was only a few days away. On the day of the appointment I received a call that indicated they were on there way. They arrived right on time. The work was done very professionally and efficiently and exactly to my wishes. All three gentlemen were nice, courteous and very professional Do not call another electrician before you contact Bobo Electric! Highly recommended!"

    "We've been using this company for at least last 5-6 years to do the annual service checkup of our Generac Generator. Thankfully, due to their service, we've not needed any repairs. Joe also advised me & corrected an error in the original installation of the generator by hoisting it and putting a level base under it so I'll get better & longer service out if it. They're also great with contacting me each year to set up service & are very accommodating to my work schedule. Great, reliable company. Will continue to use them."

    "I used Fixer to replace a light fixture in my dining room. I have a very old building (over 100 years old) and always have issues with new electric fixtures, but Ricardo was great -- he figured out how to make it work using the existing junction box that I had and did it in a very timely manner. He was also very friendly and kept me updated on the progress. The light looks great and I'm very happy. Fixer seems more expensive on an hourly basis, but actually I probably would have been charged more if I went with a flat fee charge from someone else."

    "Working with Fabian was the most pleasant experience of our project to date. Although he was initially brought in as a sub-contractor, we chose to contract with him directly because he was honest and more forthcoming than the GC overseeing our project. He takes pride in his work and you can be assured of such because he makes sure he explains what needs to be done according to current codes and provides a reasonable warranty for the services he executes. Fabian has an incredible work ethic, coming prepared to work after our consultation and even asking to stay a little later to complete tasks on his first day. Additionally, he puts the customer first, ensuring the safety of your home from beginning to completion. If only more contractors existed like him, our homes would be more secure. What began as a nightmare with the GC, worked out better than we could have asked. Very grateful for his humility and honesty. Continued growth and success with your business!"

    "Mr. Jim Gorman who is the owner of the business called me back within a half hour of my email posting. He visited my home 3 days later, inspected things, and told me what the approximate cost would be. He and his helper then installed an entire lightning protection system on both my house and a back garage/storage area. He did things exactly as I wanted in every way. Also threw in a free weathervane which increased the beauty of my home. I would have no objection to recommending this gentleman and his company to anyone who is in need of a competently installed lightning protection system for their home/property. MID-AMERICA LIGHTNING RODS is one fine company run by a man who cares about doing good work according to the latest safety codes etc. Having lost my previous retirement home to lightning, it was very important to me to get this job done and quickly because the thunderstorm season is upon us and with the climate change, those storms are very wicked, especially here out in the country where i live!"

    "From installing metal conduit, grounding all outlets, heighten electrical service pole, and installing new outlets- just to name a few details of this big project- they did it all and a great job! They were respectful of my property, insightful, and knowledgeable about residential electrical work. I had 3 other bidders for the job and I choose GRA because they actually took the time to assess the property and make recommendations. Additionally, they pointed out other electrical concerns that the other bidders did not notice. GRAâ s price was also the most affordable. They understood the job/upgrades needed and what I was looking for. Electrical safety was my top priority and it was great to work with a company with the same goal. The other bidders/competitors were recommending leaving outlets â ungroundedâ but update to GFCI and label as â no groundâ for close to the same price as GRA that was installing metal conduit and grounding every outlet throughout the home. It really shows GRAâ s commitment to safety and the project at hand. I highly recommend GRA for your residential home needs! There is no project too big or too small! They did a fantastic job !"

    "I was doing a rehab and all the electrical witing was screwed up by previous 2 contractors who had electritians who made the City inspector very mad and ready to shut down my project and give me a couple fines. BRT took over the electrical project (which was a complete nightmare). Alberto and his team came and re installed all the wiring in the entire house, they worked late hours to help me out on my project which was already over budget and getting more over budget as days went by.. They passed all City inspections and the inspector walked out with a smile on his face! I HIGHLY recommend BRT! They are always fair with their prices and workship quality is always the BEST!"

He gave me a quote within hours! It took a few days for the others to call. I needed to run a 1" IMC Rigid Conduit to the garage for a 50 amp/220 volt car charger. I also had him upgrade the indoor/outdoor outlets to 20 amps/110 volts, install new lights and ground/bond everything to code. He took care of the permit and inspection as well. Fidel is a great person and I highly recommend Gold Star Electric!"

How much do electricians typically cost?

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.
