My name is Scott Nelson. My company is called "SCOTT NELSON ELECTRIC"because I want my own name to be on every job we do. I have been in the electrical trade for over 25 years. I went to trade school school through "Associated Builders and Contractors Electrical Apprenticeship Training Program"(A.B.C.)shortly after completing high school.I am noticed by the "National Bureau of Apprenticeship Training"(N.B.A.T.)as a Journeyman Electrician. I worked for 14yrs. with contractors from the north shore,n.w. suburbs,and northern illinois. "QUALITY ELECTRICAL REPAIRS & INSTALLATIONS"is the best way to explain our service. We believe that being "neat & tidy"is one of the best ways of showing how much we respect our customers,and their homes.Our goal is 100% customer satisfaction.

"Nelson Electric is the best electrical contractor I’ve used in my thirty-eight years of owning and updating my homes. It is difficult to find an excellent contractor who is willing to take on a major remodeling project in old construction, and who handles it efficiently, cost-effectively, and with perfection. This time we were remodeling a 110 year-old bathroom. When we got down to the studs, joists, and rafters, the plans were worthless because of all the surprises. Unphased, the crew was able to trace every hidden wire to destination and source, re-route them as needed, install a new, larger, circuit breaker box, pull wire through neatly, clearly identify and label everything, and finish beautifully the lighting, overhead heating, floor heating, and exhaust fixtures, making for a beautiful bath. Thank you, Scott!"

Lightning protection installs or repairs FAQs

Lightning protection systems may help reduce the risk of damage when properly installed. Rather than preventing strikes, these systems provide a preferred path for lightning to follow into the ground instead of through your home's structure or electrical systems. The effectiveness depends on proper installation by qualified professionals and the system's adherence to safety standards. When systems meet UL requirements and are professionally installed, they can help mitigate potential damage from direct lightning strikes.

Installation timeframes vary based on system complexity and property characteristics. Simple installations involving just a couple of lightning rods might be completed in a few hours, while more extensive systems for larger homes with complex rooflines could require additional time. 

Weather conditions, accessibility, and the number of components being installed all affect the timeline. Planning ahead and scheduling during favorable weather conditions can help ensure an efficient installation process.

Some insurance providers may take professionally installed lightning protection into consideration when determining policy terms. The potential impact on premiums varies by insurance company, location, and the specific details of your protection system. Systems installed by UL-certified professionals that meet recognized standards may be viewed more favorably. For specific information about how a lightning protection system might affect your coverage or premiums, contact your insurance provider directly.

Homeowners in regions with frequent thunderstorms, particularly those in "Lightning Alley" states like Florida, Texas, and Oklahoma, might benefit most from these systems. Properties situated on elevated terrain, homes near tall trees or bodies of water, and buildings housing valuable electronics or irreplaceable items are also good candidates. If your area has a history of lightning strikes or your home has previously experienced lightning-related issues, a protection system may provide additional peace of mind during storm seasons.
