"New to the area, I needed a hookup for an emergency generator and EV charger. Cole came to my home, took the time to discuss different options and answer questions, and provided a detailed, written estimate, all the same day as my initial inquiry. The project was completed within a few days. His price was very competitive and his work meticulous. A true professional."

"The owner of the business is extremely personable and professional. He arrived on time did a perfect job along with team. Further, he took the time needed to explain to us how to switch over from public power to use of the generator. I will ask John to return for future upgrades to our home. I have every confidence you will do a great job."

"I had repairs made to the lights and outlets installed in my attic, new fan and recess lights installed in my bedroom, and dimmers installed around my home. The work was meticulous. Every step was explained to me in a way that I could understand and make an informed decision. As a woman, I felt respected and as a client, I felt appreciated. Such a great experience. Highly recommend."

"We previously used TFC Electric to install an upgraded electric panel with a hookup to our generator. From connection on the pole to the generator outside the garage, the work was above professional! So we called them for some interior and exterior lighting. Wow -- they suggested that for a similar price, the exterior floods could also be security cameras and connect into our Ring doorbell system. (They also knew Google, Lutron, etc.) The installation of two (one high on a garage) was amazing -- and they connected the light/cameras (through wifi extender they suggested) into our cloud-based system, tuned perfectly! Then the front door grotty lights were replaced with superb fixtures -- with Hue lights to match our interior system -- at Christmas our front door glows green! And they fixed my botched job of a new fixture at the side door and a broken exterior ground fault outlet box. The interior chandelier was initially hung too high for our tastes, but professionally. They insisted on coming back and putting it where we wanted. Innovation -- while hooking up the garage floodlight, they noted no lights in the garage "attic", but for a small bit more they would install fixtures and a switch -- what a difference! What are you doing still reading this review -- call them! Angie's List sometimes yields treasures -- this discovery is one!"

"Outstanding service and communication! They were very helpful in helping me get my generator back into service and provide photos of the work that was done. They also dated all the parts to help identify when it was replaced. I will call them again if needed and recommend them to anyone with a Generac Generator. Here are some photos they sent me when the work was completed."

FAQs for generator repair projects in Mastic, NY

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.
