"William responded to our inquiry quickly and was flexible in working with our hectic schedule. He arrived right on time. His friendly and professional manner was a calming presence in the face of our concern about the fallen light pole in our backyard and the potential hazards but he quickly verified that their was no electricity flowing to the downed pole, cut the line, gave us a fair price and was on his way. I appreciated the confidence and competence this young man displayed and will definitely be calling on him for future projects! "

"Very unethical company. Do not use them. Service tech spent less than 2 and a half hours on site. I provided the materials to install. They charged over $1,700 for less than three hours of labor and very little materials. Owner threatened to have service tech uninstall everything unless I paid the amount they invoiced."

"If I could give Apollo Electric LLC more than 5 stars, I would! High winds knocked a limb down in my yard, pulling down the lines from the pole to the house, which pulled the meter box nearly off the house, riser pipe completely off, etc. My mom who is oxygen dependent also lives with me. By later that night, I learned the power company wouldn’t reconnect my power until I had these damages fixed. I contacted another company I had used for other services with good results, their misleading AI made an appointment for the next day, which I later found out was incorrect and they wouldn’t send anyone until Monday, even knowing about our oxygen use. Apollo called me from a quote request I had sent out the next morning. He sent me a quote within minutes of sending him damage photos, and he was here within 2 hours. Professional, and kind. He even called the next morning to make sure everything was good. He will be my first call for any other electrical needs in my house!"

FAQs for generator repair projects in Goshen, IN

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.
