"Mac Electric has since I posted a negative review called me with very constructive dialogue. Mac has sent me a check for the outside services that were required to fix my swim spa. Much of the dialogue centered around the poor communication that involved the prime contractor Champion Windows. The mistakes made on the install were compounded by poor communication with Champion. Many of the issues could have been avoided with better project management by Champion. Mac Electric has since stood by their work and made amends. They value their work and relationship with the community. I appreciate them reaching out to me to help correct the situation."

"10/10 - Highly Recommend for any Electrical needs. We needed to run a new 240v line into our basement for a new appliance. We had never had an electrician come out before, but I am glad we called them. A small family-owned company that provided excellent service at a reasonable price. Tim answered the phone right away and had us scheduled for an estimate within the next few days. The morning of the estimate, they came buy to look at the project at hand, (and a few extra lighting issues that we’ve been putting off fixing.) They quoted us an extremely reasonable price, and let us know that they had last minute availability open up that same afternoon. Tim and Forrest (Father/Son Team!) came in and finished the project way faster than anticipated, and ended up charging us less than estimated. It’s so refreshing having friendly, honest people come in and do work on our home. We will definitely be having them back out again for any future electrical needs!"

"This company is truly top notch. My husband and I needed to replace an old deck and wanted to be sure to get something beautiful and well built. We researched companies and invited 4 out to bid. I was amazed that 2 of the companies could not demonstrate a clear understanding of what we wanted to do. Sundeck designs understands their business - really well. From the design process and working out details of the bid, through to the final product, these guys are absolute professionals. The owners are extremely knowledgeable and the crew was so easy to work with. They are friendly and approachable, clean up the site every day, and got the deck done quickly. This deck is stunningly beautiful with all quality components and workmanship including 2 colors (one darker around the perimeter and fascia). And, oh my goodness the two colors on the stairs are really striking. The railing is beautiful and the post caps have lights casting a small ray onto the deck edges at night. We couldn't be more pleased with the new deck or the experience along the way. We highly recommend Sundeck Designs!"

"We were so pleased with Christopher's services! Our ancient boiler was barely hanging on so we had to take the plunge and replace it. We were so happy with the recommendation to replace it with a Navien combi boiler and tankless water heater. The crew was great - kept us up to date with each step like how long we would not have heat and hot water and they were spot on with the estimated timeline. They were so professional and friendly and the office staff we talked to on the phone to schedule the replacement were so helpful in answering all of our questions. We would recommend Christopher's to anyone needing boiler or water heater repairs or replacement!"

FAQs for generator repair projects in Wellington, CO

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.
