"I've had an ongoing problem with an outlet for years and no electrician could solve it. Obed is precise with problem solving. He doesn't waste time."

"I need to replace the original electric panel per insurance agency demand. Sel Electric is one of the licensed technicians I selected. They are the first one to stop by for evaluation. They offered a reasonable price and got the job done. I highly recommend their service."

"Five Stars to Walter Electric for a recent project at our home! We worked with Keith and were so impressed with his responsiveness, efficiency and professionalism. We had received a bid from another electrician that was more than twice the amount Walter Electric charged us. The project turned out beautifully, and we really appreciated Keith's thoroughness and attention to detail. Sometimes we are hesitant about recommending services to our friends and famly, but we will happily recommend Walter Electric to any and all. Great job!!"

A truly skilled, well-equipped professional with a truck full of parts that charges $100 an hour can be a much wiser choice than an inexperienced hack, working with inadequate tools and no parts, but charging much less. Often, more experienced professionals get the job done quickly with warrantied work.
2. Compare Travel ChargesRates reflect travel times. Travel charges can have a big impact on your costs and are in some ways easier to compare than hourly rates. Many electricians spend a third or more of their time navigating traffic on their way to a jobsite. Every contractor must find a way to pay for the expense of driving each day.
3. Bundle Repair Jobs TogetherWhen you feel it’s time to call a pro, review your list and then conduct a mini-inspection of your home. Look for faulty switches and dysfunctional or crowded outlets. When the electrician comes, you’ll save money and time by getting everything taken care of at once.
