"Was originally scheduled to come out to give an estimate scheduled through the Angi app. They did not show up for the estimate appointment. When I called they blamed the app and that they don?t schedule appointments for estimates using the Angi app. They gave me an estimate over the phone. I didn?t provide them enough detail about what I was needing to have done. (my mistake). I scheduled an appointment to come out. They missed the appointment the first day. They then offered to come out first thing the next day which was nice. The technician struggled with the work, possibly because they didn?t have enough information upfront. The technician dropped the light fixture and damaged my dining room table. Probably because he was not well armed with the information he needed about the task at hand. Not really his fault. The light fixture did not appear to be well anchored to the ceiling when the job was completed. Tech assured me it was, but since I was helping to hang it,I could see that it was not. At this point, the tech seemed worn out. When I called and asked to send someone else out to secure it better, they spoke to the tech who installed the fixture and he assured them it was fine. So that conversation was closed. They did offer to fix my table that was damaged. However they really wanted to know immediately about how they could resolve it. After telling them that I needed to find out the cost of repair and needed some time to investigate. They also told me at that time that the original estimate they gave me was too low based on the work they actually had to do. They did honor the original quote but basically wanted the table damage resolved that instant, before the technician left. I paid them and sent them on their way and told them I would have to get back to them on the cost of the table repair. Perhaps if when the tech saw the scope of the original estimate didn?t match what I actually needed done and we had talked about it then, we might have had the opportunity to adjust to get more people involved. That might have eliminated dropping the light on my table and facilitated a more positive experience. Or they could have come out to do the original estimate as scheduled through the Angi app or fixed that disconnect with Angi that they were apparently aware of. I?ll need to hire someone else to come out and reattach the light more securely. I?ll pay to have my table fixed myself simply because I don?t want to deal with these folks. Just seems like bad luck with me. They seem nice and they tried but the end result was not a positive experience."

FAQs for generator repair projects in Burlington, NC

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.
