"Easy, easy, easy......... First, I loved the security of getting everything needed from one company. From choosing the right generator to itâ s installation and clean up, they did it all, from start to finish. I am one happy customer. I absolutely, 100% recommend them. Whatâ s more, just four hours after they left, our city had a blackout in a multiple block area. Our generator started up right on time and ran for about 3 hours. I canâ t tell you the relief we felt, (especially having air -conditioning), when it happened. Talk about timing. ð Thanks to Robert, Darrell and the crew at A-lectric. Without a doubt, you guys are the best of the best. ð ð »"

"Within minutes after submitting an inquiry, Seamus contacted me to find out specifics of my project and although he provided an estimate, he was receptive to coming out for a site visit before I committed. Edward came for the preliminary site visit and afterwards, I accepted their proposal. Cliff, the installer, communicated with me with scheduling and was very professional and easy deal with. Edward performed an inspection after install to make sure everything was done properly. The people representing this company seem very knowledgeable about their work and is backed up by generations of experience."

Customers say: Quality work

"For a reasonable price, I got more than I asked for. Not only did I get my breaker box up to code and a generator plug, but my A/C wires mounted on the house, removal of the original breaker box from 1950s and the box that had been upgraded back in the late 70s. And Richmond was available via phone to help me thru the steps of getting my portable generator up and running. Great young man. Will call in future for electrical needs."

"I needed a swimming pool auto fill valve repaired or removed I wasn't sure which and needed advise. The owner contacted me very quickly and we decided that removing and capping the valve would be the best course of action. He said he could start later that day but in the mean time I was having another pool related project done and that person was able to repair the fill valve so I didn't need the plumber after all. But even though no physical work was done I'm confident that this company would have done a great job. The owner is very professional and easy to talk with. I'll be contacting them again."

"Efficent Unlike many other solar companies they will repair systems they did not install. We have had two sets of panels installed. Both companies are no longer in business. Solar Alternatives fixed the nonworking panels, and cleaned the panels. Now, we are looking for even greater returns on our investment in solar panels."

FAQs for generator repair projects in Frierson, LA

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.
