Commercial / Residential Electrician

What to look for when selecting an ethical Electrician:

  1. They should show you their contractor’s license before being asked.

  2. Explains the need to verify that their contractor’s license is legitimate. Make a copy of the license and check it with the appropriate state agency.

  3. Trust, you can tell a lot about any contractor by how they deal with you before you sign a contract. Make sure you feel comfortable with the person in front of you before making a buying decision.

  4. Look for a company with a proven track record.

  5. Look for a company that shows you a copy of their insurance cover letter.

  6. Make sure they show you proof of general liability and workers’ compensation insurance to protect you if your property is damaged or if someone is injured working on your property.

  7. Verify and actually call references.

  8. Ask how they handle problems and complaints.

  9. A good contractor should educate you enough to make a wise decision.

  10. Look for a company that listens to you and thoroughly answers your questions.

  11. Don’t accept a verbal estimate. Estimates should be detailed and in writing on company stationary.

  12. Get everything in writing. Make sure what is in the contract is actually what is going into your home or business.

  13. Never be pressured into making a decision today.

  14. Don’t think you’ve discovered a great bargain if you get a bid that is substantially lower than other bids. Remember, you get what you pay for. If it looks too good to be true, it probably is.

  15. Make sure they have a physical location, uniformed technicians and a vehicle with professional lettering on it.

What to avoid when selecting a company in this industry: 

  1. A contractor that does not show you their contractor's license. There are many companies that act like licensed electricians that are not qualified or use other people's licenses.

  2. A contractor that does not show you their insurance. If someone is injured on the job or your property is damaged and is not insured you may be liable. Why take that chance?

  3. Contractors that play price games. Prices should be the same for every customer. If they haggle it might mean someone else is a better haggler than you and getting a better price than you are.

  4. Contractors that will not provide you a detailed estimate or itemized contract on Company letterhead.

  5. Companies that ask for excessive deposits or cash payment or checks made to an individual.

  6. Contractors that apply pressure.

  7. Contractors that will not let you call past customers.

  8. You get what you pay for. If you want a qualified and licensed contractor, you may need to pay a little more, but in most cases it is money well spent.

  9. Contractors that make guarantees that appear too good to be true. 

  10. It is our opinion to stay away from companies where the sales people are not qualified electricians. Do not set yourself up for an electrical fire to save a few dollars.

  11. Companies that do not perform criminal background checks on their workers.

  12. Faulty electrical work can cause a fire. Please avoid a tragic situation and make sure you hire a licensed professional. Electrical work is not the place to try to save a few dollars.

  13. Avoid companies that ask you to pull a permit if it's required. They're probably not licensed.
