There are certain jobs you’ll do in your home over the years that require nothing but some basic knowledge and a YouTube video. Electrical work, however, is not one of these jobs. Electrical jobs can not only be dangerous, but can also lead to property damage if not done correctly.

But how do you go about finding a true professional? Certainly, you want a service provider you can trust to do the job correctly and safely, and you want a job you can rely on. Keep reading to learn more about what separates a professional electrician from the rest.

Electrical work is very complex, and learning how to do it correctly requires many hours of education and training. Check to ensure that any electrician you choose to work with has the training and the proper certification required for your job, and for your zoning area.

In addition to being adequately licensed, any handyman you invite into your home to perform work should also be insured. If not, you’d be liable for any injuries or damages that occur when they work on your property.

NEC stands for the National Electrical Code, and is a code that outlines the standards for the safe installation of electrical wiring and equipment in the United States. Any type of building code can be updated at any time, so it’s vital that your electrician is aware of changes and is able to communicate them clearly to you.

Don’t hire an amateur electrician with whom you are unsure of or try to attempt a DIY electric job. Instead, rely on the professionalism and expertise we have on our team.

The winter months bring with them an array of storms capable of rendering entire neighborhoods powerless. With all these outages, power surges are a common occurrence during the coldest time of the year.
