"I searched for a reliable company to install a whole house generator at my home. I read all of the reviews and discovered that Premier Generator operated by Paul Foley Electric of Carver MA was the most highly recommended of all generator services in my area. We found Mr. Foley to be unusually thorough and forthright in making his proposal to us. Jeannie, the business manager is congenial and is willing to accommodate customer needs. When selected, Mr. Foley's installation crew reflected Mr. Foley's values for neatness, attention to detail and for customer service and satisfaction. Additionally, Mr. Foley installs Kohler generators which are reputed to be industry leaders. We have had the Kohler generator for three years and found it to be quiet and reliable. It provided uninterrupted electric service for the whole house for 4 days when Eversource power was interrupted by a severe winter storm. We engaged Foley Electric to service the generator every fall. Nathan, the service technician will do whatever is necessary to please the customer and reflects Mr. Foley's emphasis on serving the customer. I watched as he serviced the Kohler motor and generator. He follows what appears to be an established procedure and is careful to treat the unit as if it were his own. He willingly and patiently answers questions in a way that anyone will understand. He gives the impression that, while he is at my home, that his time and attention are devoted to meeting my requirements - without unnecessary distraction. He asked about my interest in establishing WiFi monitoring and assisted me in successfully establishing the connection on my cell phone. You just can't ask for or expect better from any service technician. I most highly recommend Paul Foley Electric for home and commercial needs."

"I bought my unit from NETR in 2018. It worked fine until we discovered it wasn't blowing any cold air. I made the big mistake of hiring someone a family friend recommended and they diagnosed it incorrectly and then basically disappeared on me. Anyway, it took a few weeks but they repaired it today and I was impressed with their courtesy and getting the job done very quickly and successfully. I felt like I was being dealt with honestly. Thanks, Jared and Jack. I should mention I paid about $300 for the refrigerant today. I don't know what the final cost will be but probably a bit over $1000."

"We had several estimates from electricians to rewire our electrical panel. We purchased an old house with an outdated breaker that showed historical signs of some type of electrical surge (blackened/melted main breaker - not good). We opted to have the whole panel rewired and the exterior of the house resealed, as water had been getting in due to a cracked seal. <br /> <br /> Peter came on time for the estimate. He even made a point to wipe his feet thoroughly on the doormat outside the house, a detail that did not go unnoticed. He was not the least expensive estimate we received, or the most expensive. He made our panel replacement a priority and came within two days to do the repair/replace, as he deemed it a safety hazard. He was thorough, efficient and reasonable. <br /> <br /> We also had Peter quote us on installing power and cable above our fireplace for mounting our television, but at $600+ we decided to take that project on ourselves."

"Jason and his team with Cotti-Johnson did an excellent job updating our electrical boxes, installing the washer/dryer hookup, and getting us setup with a generator! Sam, our assigned electrician, even took the time to go through the entire operation of the generator from A-Z. I would definitely recommend them for any electrical work!"

FAQs for generator repair projects in North-marshfield, 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.
