"I asked the company to come to my house to do maintenance on my generator. Eduardo came, serviced the generator and answered all (and there were plenty) questions I had. He was very patient with me and now I now, how to actually handle the generator. He did a great job and was so very pleasant. I would and will absolutely recommend this company and will be calling them if I ever need help with my generator. Thank you so much!"

"I called multiple companies about repairing an electrical box on the outside of my home. They all quoted me outrageous prices and said the box has to be replaced without even looking at it. I then spoke to serge, treated me with respect, and gave me a rough estimate way less than the others. Afyer speaking with him for awhile he continued to try and find ways that he could help me to afford the word. I was offered a free estimate and he was willing to come the same day I called. If I ever have any electrical done I will only use Wiseminds. I was treated fairly and with respect. I live in a 4800 home development and Wiseminds will be promoted here."

"After submitting my quote on homeadvisor, I immediately received a phone call from Tim who came out right away and provided a free estimate after almost an hour of diagnosing my electrical issue. Courteous, friendly and with reasonable pricing, he came out to complete the work the following work day and provided great, high quality work. Will definitely hire Smarthome Solutions for future electrical work."

"Alejendro was one of the few servicemen who actually repair and not high cost replacement artists. He understands the cause of the problem and deals with that. In doing so he saved me hundreds of dollars and he had all the parts on his truck. This a PRO in every sense of the word."

"Elcon Electric is really a 5 Star company. I rarely leave a review but my experience with Elcon was exceptional, amazing and the only electrical company I would recommend. If you live in FL you are well aware that quality electricians and companies are not easy to find. When I was looking for a electrician I looked on Angie’s list [not always reliable] I goggled reviews on several companies and narrowed it down to 3. It came down to two pretty quickly. I spoke with someone in the office at Elcon, she was very nice, she explained the whole process, the amount per hour depending on a 1 or 2 men job. I told her I would think it over and get back to her. The other company I was considering the owner/electrician made the job I needed to be done seem so complicated that I was confused on who to hire. I have used so many bad contractors over the years that one develops a ‘fear’ to hiring anyone. My grandfather was a master electrician and I am well aware the danger of hiring someone who might not know what they are doing. A few weeks passed I still had not made a decision, when my phone rang it was the lady I had originally spoke to at Elcon. She said she just wanted to check if I had my electrical issues fixed? I was so very impressed with the ‘follow up call’…. to me that showed great customer service. I think her name was Mary I hope Elcon can check on that because she is a valuable employee. Roman is the electrician that came to my home. THE BEST!!! He was amazing, very professional and very thorough at fixing and repairing and replacing our fixtures. Roman addressed all of our concerns and both my husband and felt secure that all was done correctly and perfectly. We have 4 brick posts in the front of our house and two of the lamps weren’t working. Roman had to come back today to fix that [2 man job] as the buried cable had to be found and repaired. I did not think think I could be anymore impressed with this company…then I met Rusty. He was great, amazing! Both Rusty and Roman worked hard in the hot sun and kept digging till they found the cable. My posts lights work great! Elcon will be the only electrical company I will ever use from now on. My neighbors know I rarely , if ever, recommend anyone. I am so impressed by Roman and Rusty that I have already recommended Elcon to two of my neighbors.Usually I will just say a company is OK….this time I said Elcon was great! It’s hard to get a 5 Star rating from me but this company deserves 5 Stars! Thank you Roman, Rusty and the customer service at Elcon Electric"

"I highly recommend this company to do electrical work. I will use this company again if needed in the future. The price was very reasonable. He made sure that everything was working properly before he left. He had to do a correction from another company."

FAQs for generator repair projects in Delray Beach, FL

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.
