"Absolute waste of time and money. I scheduled a very simple job - replace two exterior wall sconces (porch lights) with two new ones. The old ones work fine, we just want to update the look. Scheduled service for a date and time and acknowledged there is a $69 service/trip fee which is waived if you have them do the work; no problem. They even called day-of to see if tech could come out earlier than scheduled, which worked fine. When tech arrived, I explained the very straightforward job I wanted done. He looked over the new parts, and I thought we'd be good to go. Then he said that before he did anything he had to do a "safety inspection." An hour later he quoted me a multi-thousand dollar bid to replace all sorts of equipment I had no interest in replacing. And the simple job, if he did just that, would be over $550. I declined, and so it cost me $69 to have no work done and waste my time. I will either do this myself or find a local handyman. Avoid this company like the plague."

We are A-1 Plus Electrical, a Company committed to our client's projects and needs for the Texas Houston and Dallas metro areas. With more than 14 years of experience in the electrical field. Our team has built a solid reputation in the community for our outstanding attention to detail and superior customer service.
"We are doing major remodeling and a new addition onto an older home. This company was like a breath of fresh air after dealing with multiple contractors who did sloppy work. Justin obviously knows what he's doing. A previous contractor had wired some electrical receptacles incorrectly, so what should have been a 110 receptacle was actually 220 -- a potentially lethal mistake that fried a couple of small appliances. Justin was able to fix this dangerous situation inside of five minutes by switching some wires around in the breaker box. He did exactly what he said he was going to do. He always called in advance, showed up on time, his workers were very efficient, and they kept the work area clean -- all for a very fair price. They lined up all of the recessed lights perfectly, relocated a chandelier, and relocated several receptacle boxes. Justin and his team are competent, conscientious, and courteous workers who care about doing neat, quality work. We would definitely hire this company again."

"SSGE acted like a teenager wrt aftersale service. The first time I called SSGE was when then was an alarm on the system, ( a year after install) and they refused service!!! The reason per SSGE was that there was dispute during install. During the sales process, SSGE had told me that HOA approval was NOT needed. Right after installation, the HOA wanted to remove the generator, and it took me 2 weeks to sort out the issue. I paid SSGE the second half of the payment in full only after the dispute with HOA was settled in about 2 weeks.Is that a good enogh reason to not provide service?? I had to call Generac's head-quarters and they helped me trouble shoot the alarm on my system."

An electrician typically charges between $50 to $100 per hour for wall sconce installation. With most installations taking between one and three hours to complete, you can expect to pay between $100 and $450 per sconce. The final cost depends largely on whether you're replacing an existing fixture (lower cost) or installing in a new location requiring new wiring (higher cost). Many electricians offer package pricing for standard installations rather than strictly hourly rates.
Wall sconce installation typically takes between one and three hours per fixture. The timeline varies based on several factors, including wiring requirements, the complexity of the mounting surface, and additional features. Replacements using existing wiring take less time than new installations requiring electrical work inside walls. Professional installers can complete the work more efficiently than DIY attempts.
The difficulty of wall sconce installation varies based on the requirements and your experience level. Replacing an existing fixture where wiring is already in place is relatively straightforward for those with basic electrical knowledge. However, due to safety concerns and building code requirements, professionals should handle new installations requiring wiring work. The most challenging aspects include ensuring proper electrical connections, secure mounting, and aesthetically pleasing placement.
Permit requirements for wall sconce installation vary by location. In most areas, simple replacements of existing fixtures don't require permits, while installations involving new wiring typically do. Permits for electrical work generally cost between $75 and $900, with inspections adding another $100 to $125. Check with your local building department before beginning your project, as unpermitted electrical work can create safety hazards and potential issues when selling your home.
