"Frank and his crew were fantastic! We are moving into our home from out-of-state, and we never met Frank in person. But he communicated quickly and professionally through email and phone. He repaired all of the electrical issues found during our home inspection, upgraded our house to 200 amp service, rewired all the outlets in the kitchen, installed new basement lights, and added outdoor outlets. To walk through the house, you'd never know that work had been done. He and his team were clean and on time and I can't wait to hire Frank again for future electrical projects."

"Very responsive, came out for a quote in a timely manner which I can't say many others did. Has responded quickly to my emails to answer any question I have posed. The crew came on time to position the generator and had it in place as described. As soon as Tim and Robert were notified of gas connection they scheduled final install, showed up exactly on time and completed work in a very professional manner. Very happy with the entire process."

"We couldn't have asked for prompter, more courteous, or more expert service. Chris correctly diagnosed and solved all our problems. He wasted no time, charged what we thought was a very fair price, and left us wishing all our experiences with service providers could go this smoothly. Next time we have an electric issue we'll definitely call Paciorek."

"Electrical experts of Easthampton, Massachusetts did an incredible job upgrading the electrical panel, plus changing out all the electrical outlets and switches in the house in addition to adding two additional outlets to the garage. Wiring to the garage included pre-wiring our garage to accept the installation of an EV hookup for a future electric car or hybrid vehicle. Both Alan (the electrician) and Brandon (his apprentice) were a team and worked as quickly and efficiently as possible. Alan communicated with us frequently regarding progress of this huge project. Alan and Brandon moved large heavy pieces of furniture and bookcases to be able to have access to the outlets behind them. I was amazed at how they were able to get into the smallest spaces without difficulty. The best part is that they moved everything back into position. They did not leave anything out of place. After the work was completed, both Alan and Brandon did a walk around and were open to any questions that we may have. Alan also went over the new panel in the basement. Alan and Brandon were in communication with each other so that they could accurately label each toggle switch on the new new electrical access panel. Alan then went over the panel with me. I deeply appreciate the level of communication with that team! For the amount of work that was done over a 3-day period of at least 8 hours a day was well worth the money spent! It has definitely increased the value of my house now that it is up to current (no pun intended !) modern day code! I also appreciate The secretary at electrical experts for being open to any scheduling changes. Both my husband and I highly recommend electrical experts of Easthampton, Massachusetts for any electrical issues that you may have. They are quite caring and a nice group of people to deal with."

"Call this electrician to fix a blown circuit. Recommendation was to replace an outdated and weak panel. New panel and better circuit breakers were installed as-well-as labeling all breakers (not done on the old panel!). The work was done quickly and with zero problems since. I would call this guy again for any future work needed."

"Justin did a great job replacing the corroded power meter circuit and surrounding cables and ground rod to code. The job was professionally done and he left the area as good as new. His costs for the work were very reasonable and he took his time explaining the whole process for the repair to me answering all of my questions. I highly recommend him for hire by others based on the quality of the work and his overall work ethic."

FAQs for generator repair projects in Montague, MA

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.
