"Ernie replaced an old light fixture in a bathroom with a new one. He put in a junction box for the new fixture, so that it would be more secure. There was no box there before. He did a great job, and I would definitely use him again for further repairs, or projects.

"We had a 80amp car charger installed which included a long run from our electrical panel. Phoenix sourced the oversized cable, redistributed the loads across three electrical panels and ran the cable through the walls and across the attic. All holes were neatly cut and easy to repair. The job site was swept and all debris disposed of. The electricians were thorough, thoughtful, and excellent communicators. I recommend Phoenix without hesitation and will use them again in the future. ."

"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!"

"All my electrical issues were repaired in less than 20 minutes although I had a deal from Angie’s List for 2 hours. I did have the price out a couple of other jobs I’m considering in the near future and the prices were very fair. After getting burned by 2 other big name electrical companies that tried to charge me $650 for less than 5 minutes of work I was gun shy about finding a reliable electrical repair service that charged fair prices. And Blessed Electrical & Air or it. Fast, professional, down home and honest. Willie and Jack I believe were their the electricians that performed the work and I’ll ask for them by name the next time I need them. I’m so glad I have an electrical repair service that is fairly priced and provides great service all around."

FAQs for generator repair projects in Arlington, 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.
