Something else small and electrical? Send a photo and ask. If it is not a fit, we will say so and point you in the right direction.
Bigger jobs: Have a bigger project in mind, like new circuits or panel work? We take those on too. Call or send photos and we will talk it through and give you a separate quote.
Price
For most standard jobs: $200 flat service call fee, then $75/hour after the first hour. How pricing works.
What to photograph
A wide shot of the area, a close-up of the outlet, switch or fixture, and any label on it. If a breaker keeps tripping, a photo of your panel with its door closed helps. Please never remove a cover to take a photo.
Common questions
How much do you charge?
For most standard jobs, there is a flat service call fee of $200 that covers your first hour on site. After the first hour it is $75 per hour. Many small jobs, like replacing an outlet, a switch, or a light fixture, fit in that first hour. Parts and materials are quoted separately when needed. Send photos and we will tell you what to expect.
How fast will you get back to me?
We reply within one day. If it is urgent, call (708) 717-3446 and we will see what we can do.
What kinds of jobs do you do?
Light electrical work for homes: outlets and switches, light fixtures and recessed lighting, ceiling fans, and troubleshooting things like a breaker that keeps tripping or an outlet that stopped working. If you are not sure whether we can help, send a photo and ask.
Do you take on bigger projects?
Yes. Larger jobs, like new circuits or panel work, need a conversation first and sometimes a visit, so they are quoted separately rather than at the hourly rate. Call or send photos and tell us what you have in mind.
Can I just send photos instead of scheduling a visit first?
Yes. A photo of the outlet, switch, fixture, or the spot where you want the work done usually tells us what we need to know, and we can often tell you what the job will take before we visit. Please do not remove any cover plates or panel covers yourself. We will tell you if we need to see anything in person.
My breaker keeps tripping, or something stopped working. Is it safe to wait?
If you smell burning, see scorch marks, or feel heat at an outlet, switch, or panel, turn off that breaker and call us right away. If you ever see smoke or fire, call 911. Otherwise, send photos and a short description and we will get back to you within one day.
