"I had them come out and move my breaker box out of a closet and I to our hall. They were timely and did good work. I was disappointed that they did not replace my outside box and shut off in the same place the other one was. I have a hole in siding with no coverage. I will have to pay someone to come and repair that. They also piled the trash up by my fence. I discovered it when I went to mow. I had to clean up the screws, snack wrappers, water bottles, and metal pieces from my yard and closet."

"JC was so helpful and responsive! I had six recessed lights that needed to be replaced, and selected the soonest timeline. JC and I communicated and he was able to come out this afternoon— less than 24 hours since my job/ project submission— to replace the lights! I am so pleased with JC’s communication, timeliness, and dedication to doing the best job! I will definitely hire Eagle R Electrical again for any electrical needs!"

"Brian and Dylan did a great job and I have already scheduled another appointment for them to come out and do some other repairs. They were very professional and knowledgeable. The fixtures were hung correctly and they allowed plenty of time for adjustments. The spotlights will be replaced and Brian will come back to replace the dining room fixture and check the house for any issues."

"Chris was a great service man. After a thorough inspection of my power panel, Chris found the problem of power surges and recommended I call ONCOR to fix the service to the house. One phase had burned through the rubber boot. ONCOR promptly came and reconnected the power properly."

"We just moved up to the area and during the move, some tweaker damaged our meter box and stole some of our wire. Alex from A to Z electric took great care of us. We'd spent every penny getting up here and so we were understandably stressed out about costly repairs. Alex did phenomenal work about 4k less than the major company in the area and even worked with us on a payment plan. He was very professional and did a phenomenal job with the work. Thanks to him we were up and running again with power the day after we contracted him. I highly recommend A to Z electric thanks to Alex."

FAQs for generator repair projects in Waxahachie, TX

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.
