"We are so thrilled with Darrell, Winona, and the whole crew at Shocking Difference. We had a very daunting project to complete- a whole house rewiring and panel upgrade! Darrell took the time to honestly review every aspect of the project and the costs without any pretenses or sales pitches. They completed the work on time and made it a point to come back to the house to answer additional questions in person (and on a weekend!). The care and personable interactions with Shocking Difference really did make all the difference. We will hire them again for any electrical work."

"Jeremy just can't keep promises. Nothing is done when he says it will be, sloppy work with zero cleanup, poor to no communication. After discovering a switched outlet his guys installed didn't work, I asked him to fix it. Three different times he promised to do so and no-showed. Finally after several months of this he simply stopped responding. Cost me $630 to have Shocking Difference fix the shoddy work but at least they did it right. Don't be like me, check this guy out at https://secure.lni.wa.gov/verify/ before hiring him for anything. You can see any contractor's violations there. I wish I had checked first."

"Called Elemental Electric for complete electrical panel replacement and Jesse showed the next morning. He gave me a thorough estimate that was half the cost of another company estimate. I wanted a 30 amp generator hookup installed and he gave me a great deal and added it to the job. I also needed an outdoor electrical outlet added due to a tankless water heater I was having installed and Elemental Electric installed it while they were replacing the panel. The job was done quickly, professionally and at a reasonable price. The electricians who performed the work were professional and cordial and worked quickly. I have more electrical work to get done in the near future and I won't hesitate to use Elemental Electric for that work!"

"Rock Electric was great. We had electricity brought to a new shop in our backyard. The Rock people were on time, they stayed in touch while we were scheduling and rescheduling. The initial visit went well and all the little details were worked out in a straightforward manner. No issues when we requested the work be permitted either. They were accommodating and professional When there was a question about the trench we dug that we thought met specs they reached out immediately and made sure they were ok to proceed. The job was done quickly and the permitting inspection was also done at the same time. Great customer service. They did a fine job of staying in touch for time frames. After initially speaking with some other outfits that never got back to us or did not show or call for their scheduled appts it was refreshing to work with a group with conscientious, communicative, customer oriented people. We would definitely hire them again if a project comes up. Thanks guys."

HVAC systems consume the largest portion of household electricity, as they operate frequently throughout the year. Water heaters represent another significant energy user in most homes, along with refrigerators that run continuously. Clothes dryers, dishwashers, and cooking appliances also contribute substantially to electricity usage. Entertainment systems, particularly those left in standby mode, can collectively add meaningful amounts to monthly bills.
Time-of-use electricity plans charge different rates depending on when you use power. Peak hours—typically weekday afternoons and evenings—come with premium rates, while overnight and weekend hours often feature discounted pricing. Households that can shift major electricity usage to off-peak hours may benefit from these plans. The effectiveness depends on your schedule flexibility and ability to run major appliances during lower-rate periods.
Solar power systems represent a significant investment, currently averaging between $18,115 and $35,165 for residential installations. The financial benefit varies based on your location's sun exposure, local electricity rates, and available incentives. Homes with consistently high electricity bills see better returns on solar investments. Many homeowners consider both immediate savings and property value enhancement when evaluating solar options. Contact solar panel installers near you to discuss the potential costs and benefits for your home.
