"It went great! Professional, quick to call and discuss the request. What I like the most was their genuine interest in helping me fast. They gave me an estimate the same day and the job was performed in less than 48 hours. I would definitely hire Green Electric for my future requirements. Thanks Mr. Darnell!"

"Our technician Jason was prompt and efficient and fixed our attic fan. He took pictures before the repair so he would be able to better explain to us what was going on. Afterwards, he even sent a follow-up email to make sure that everything was functioning properly, which I really appreciated."

"We hired Wolf Electric for the first time in early 2025 to come out and give us an estimate on getting a generator outlet and a few new outlets put into our home. Alex (the owner) was very kind, courteous, and professional from the moment he walked in the door. He explained everything to me, not knowing anything about electricity, he explained everything to me until I understood. He also answered every question my husband and I had. Needless to say, we hired him to do the work, and his work was excellent! Nothing was messed up, and everything looks and works perfectly! He even told us of other things we should be worrying about in the future, even if we didn't hire him for the job, he still cared enough to let us know. In the Summer of 2025, our panel went up (we bought an old house), we called Wolf Electric, and he came out right away to replace the panel. We have now hired Wolf Electric once again to do more work on our home. We will always use them for our electrical needs! "

"I found John Max Electric on Angi and couldn’t be happier with their service. They arrived promptly with a team of three skilled professionals who tackled each of the five electrical issues with precision and efficiency. What really stood out to me was their honesty—there was no price haggling, no upselling, and no push to sign up for a membership. I often feel anxious about hiring companies for repairs because of past experiences with unfair pricing or high-pressure tactics, but John Max Electric was a breath of fresh air. They were professional, fair, and top-notch in every way. If you’re looking for reliable and trustworthy electricians, I highly recommend John Max Electric. They’ve earned my trust and my business for any future electrical!"

"Outstanding work, outstanding people. Excellent workmanship and a pleasure to do business with; very professional. Installed recessed lighting in M/BedRm and FamRr. Replaced 2 indoor ceiling fixtures, added an outdoor outlet to our front porch, replaced outdoor porch lights and pole light and added heat lamp to the M/Bathroom. All done without any drywall damage, no holes to repair. One estimate I got told me they would have to put 4 or 5 holes in my Family Room ceiling because the attic only extended halfway above the Family Room. Spoke to Keith (owner) @ All In Electric and he just laughed and said his guys will not put any holes in my ceiling, they know how to fish wires!! Best of all his pricing was competitive with the 3 other estimates I got. Great communication throughout the project from proposal to finish!!! Highly recommend AIE."

"Everything went great. The only reason I didn't give an A for quality is that they had to leave holes in my wall and ceiling tile to run the speaker wires. I did agree to this after it was explained how they would have to run the wires, but I haven't figured out how to fix the ceiling tile yet. So I would say it would be nice if that weren't the case and that it wasn't so destructive to do the work and/or it would be repaired as part of the service offered. I would still highly recommend."

"Chesapeake Energy Solutions arrived promptly, performed the work carefully and quickly and charged the agreed upon amount. We would definitely use them again. We had painted the ceiling before the work, but the work was done so neatly that we couldn't tell the difference. We were very pleased with their work."

FAQs for generator repair projects in Arnold, MD

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.
