"G and W Electric. Talk about dedicated to his business and his customers. After coming to my business and checking out our needs. He put together a plan to replace my whole electrical service at our Laundromat/carwash. This was by no means a cakewalk. My concerns were how long will my business be shut down. G&W assured me he would stay and work until the job was done. Well he sure did. He showed up at 2 in the afternoon and began working. He actually worked 24 hours straight and had the brand new service completed at 2 the next afternoon. Now that is dedication to his customer. Will i have him back in the future? Hell yes. We talked about a generator for our building and will see what comes of that. But as far as work ethic goes. He and his company are top notch and I recommend him to anyone that needs electrical work done. Apparently no job is too big for this company."

"Quality work! Frank came out for three jobs.. Two electrical jobs and one outdoor project. 1) installed new lights in my basement and moved the switches to a more logical location. 2) removed an old lamp post outside and shut off the electrical lines that ran to it. When my wife and I decide what kind of lighting we want outside, we will be hiring him again for the install. 3) removed several small-medium boulders from the property. Also moved a large pile of scrap wood to our burn pile (would have taken me hours). Highly recommended for general handyman work and/or small tractor work outside."

In some states and municipalities, licensed and registered handypersons can change a light fixture and do minor electrical work. However, you should check with your state and local licensing boards before hiring a local handyperson. In most cases, it’s safer and more practical to hire an electrician for this job. It may cost more, but hiring a licensed electrician means they’ll get the work done to code.
Special light fixtures, known as damp-rated light fixtures, are recommended in bathrooms, particularly if they're near damp areas like showers and over the bathtub. However, in most locations, they’re not a strict requirement. For safety and longevity, damp-rated fixtures are a better choice. If you work with a lighting contractor in your area, they may be able to recommend the right kinds of fixtures for your space.
Yes, it’s possible to run a second light fixture to a switch, meaning the light switch would control more than one light fixture. Several factors can impact whether it’s possible and how much it will cost. In many cases, it may be easier and more affordable for the contractor to install independent light switches. Talk to your electrician about your idea to get their feedback.
