"My EV charger setup is exactly what I envisioned and working with Wes could not have been easier. He contacted me the day after I requested quotes through Home Advisor and I texted him what I had in mind and photos. He needed more info and came out the next day, gave me a quote on site and scheduled my job for the following week. In addition to fitting me in within a week, his pricing seemed fair (of my four quotes, his was right in the middle) and I felt good about his experience—Wes told me he installs two to three chargers a day. When I asked for a charger recommendation and whether to hardwire or install an outlet, Wes was quick to suggest Chargepoint and hardwiring, which other electricians were less definitive about. I am already thinking about other electrical projects I could hire Wes to do."

"Quality work! Frank came out for three jobs.. Two electrical jobs and one outdoor project. 1) installed new lights in my basement and moved the switches to a more logical location. 2) removed an old lamp post outside and shut off the electrical lines that ran to it. When my wife and I decide what kind of lighting we want outside, we will be hiring him again for the install. 3) removed several small-medium boulders from the property. Also moved a large pile of scrap wood to our burn pile (would have taken me hours). Highly recommended for general handyman work and/or small tractor work outside."

"G and W Electric. Talk about dedicated to his business and his customers. After coming to my business and checking out our needs. He put together a plan to replace my whole electrical service at our Laundromat/carwash. This was by no means a cakewalk. My concerns were how long will my business be shut down. G&W assured me he would stay and work until the job was done. Well he sure did. He showed up at 2 in the afternoon and began working. He actually worked 24 hours straight and had the brand new service completed at 2 the next afternoon. Now that is dedication to his customer. Will i have him back in the future? Hell yes. We talked about a generator for our building and will see what comes of that. But as far as work ethic goes. He and his company are top notch and I recommend him to anyone that needs electrical work done. Apparently no job is too big for this company."

"Jeff installed four security lighting fixtures for me. He had to do a little extra on one as the sensor was bad. He arrived on time and completed the work in a very timely manner. His work as high quality and his bill was more than reasonable for the time spent. He is preparing another estimate for running wiring out to my shed."

FAQs for electrical for home addition or remodel installation projects in Schenectady, NY

There are several telltale signs that your home is due for an electrical upgrade. You may need to rewire your house if your lights are constantly flickering or your circuit breaker keeps tripping. If you feel mild electric shocks when you touch light switches, hear buzzing sounds, or notice burning smells, you may need to rewire your house, too. Discolored or burnt-looking switches and faceplates are another crucial warning sign. 

Properly installed copper wiring in a residential property can last as long as 50 to 100 years in some cases, but many homes over 30 years old are due for an upgrade. That’s the timeline that many experts recommend, even if it is only a partial update to accommodate technological advancements, increased power demands, and changing safety requirements. 

At $3 to $5 per square foot, the cost to wire a 2,000-square-foot house ranges from $6,000 to $10,000, on average. This can depend on many factors, like the age and complexity of the house and how easy it is for contractors to access the areas they need to get the job done. Opening and repairing walls can further add to your total cost.
