I called Sequim Valley Electric at the suggestion of a friend.  I needed to have three dimmer switches installed that I had purchased myself. While making arrangements for an appointment I was treated in a very easy and friendly manner.  I made the appointment without asking for an estimate.  I knew that electricians were expensive, but being a simple job for a professional, assumed that they could do it within an hour.  The electricians arrived precisely on time, did the job in twenty minutes and left. They were very nice and I was completely satisfied with the work they performed.  I was told that the bill would be mailed to me.  When I received the bill I was a bit dismayed to find out it was $92.00 excluding tax.  They were literally in and out in twenty minutes.  There were two of them so it was forty minutes between them, but that still seemed high.  I called for an explanation of the bill and it was explained to me that there is a basic service call charge and hourly rates are applied for jobs that take hours to perform.  During the course of our conversation I was asked if I was a senior and was told that if I was over 55 the charge was $85.00 instead of $92.00.  I understand service call charges and the reasoning behind them, but $92.00 still seemed a bit excessive, so after I got off the phone I went onto Angie?s List and looked into electricians on the site.  I found several instances where people were charged anywhere from $50.00 to $75.00 for small jobs similar to what I had done, which indicates to me that $92.00, and even $85 for the senior charge which only applies to seniors, could be on the high end of a service call charge.  I can?t say for sure whether or not it is a fair price; I honestly don?t know.  Maybe it is perfectly fair and I am simply uninformed.  What I do know is that I felt it was on the high end and have learned to never forego Angie?s list again.  In the future I will let my fellow members and the service people?s estimates enlighten as to what is fair before having any work done.  Since becoming a member I have used Angie?s List many times and this is the first (and last) time I have contacted anybody for service without checking Angie?s List.  And to emphasize how well Angie?s List has served me in the past, this is the first time I will not be able to nominate the business for the Page of Happiness.  When asked if I would use this company again the only options given are yes or no. Since I believe that I would be able to have the work done for less money I felt that I had to choose no.  A more accurate response would be that I am unsure because I would not use them again without first contacting the A rated electricians on the list for estimates. Considering everything, I would say this is a good company, but the next time I need an electrician I will do more to make sure I am doing business with an excellent company.

"Russ provided a complete estimate in advance and spent about 2 hours explaining the ins and outs of alarm systems and answering my questions.  This was not a hard sell but more of a teaching session.  Russ provided honest answers to why he made his recommendations and left it to me to decide. Russ worked with me to install a high quality system that will serve my needs now and into the future. When the installation day arrived, he was on time and completed the work in the time period he had estimated.  The quality of the work was excellent and exceeded my expectations.  He worked with me when I changed my mind on one detail and accommodated the change at a fair price.  I am completely satisfied with his work and would recommend him to others.

"I was contacted by a Tech at the assigned time and had to run to the store for a cable I needed. When I called back, I had a different Tech, but he was able to continue right where I had left off. There was no need to explain anything again. Awesome."

"For the most part it went well.  When the wood panel above the garage was replaced the panel was not cut properly to size when first installed but fortunately he was able to cut the panel while it was in place.  All of the work was done pretty much within the three hours allocated.

"I just pay $75 you never know who's going to come out. They do everything electrical. Just about everything is covered except the septic tank. I had an air conditioner replaced. It went great, all I had to do was pay for the freon. He didn't charge e more than what was needed."

"There were many things wrong in my computer (my fault and letting grandchildren on computer) Robert was so helpful, gave me many good instructions to keep everything safe, which I have written down, feel like I have a new computer. He was so excellent and experienced, took his time and was meticulous about what needed to be done. He was a pleasure to work with and I will use this company again! Linda Disy"

FAQs for electrical service projects in Sequim, WA

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.
