What Our Clients Say
Electrical Company in Perry Hall, Towson, Timonium & Surrounding Areas
The internet and technology have made it easier than ever for the average person to complete repairs around their home. There are some tips and tutorials available online. However, electrical work is not a DIY job. Electrical components have high volts of electricity passing through them, and you can shock or electrocute yourself. You can also cause problems with your electrical system, including electrical fires, if you do not properly install your electric components or make repairs correctly. This is why it is so important to hire a licensed electrical contractor when you have an electrical job that needs to be completed.

Electrical Frequently Asked Questions
Finding a good local electrician involves a few key steps:
- Ask for Recommendations: Friends, family, or neighbors who have had electrical work done can provide valuable referrals.
- Check Reviews and Ratings: Online platforms like Google, Yelp, or specialized trade websites can offer insights into an electrician's reputation.
- Verify Licenses and Insurance: Ensure any electrician you consider is licensed and insured, providing protection and peace of mind.
- Ask for Quotes: Contact multiple electricians to compare quotes, but remember that the lowest price might not always mean the best quality.
- Experience and Specialization: Look for electricians with experience specific to the type of work you need, such as residential services, commercial projects, or specialized installations like EV chargers.
You should call an electrician for several reasons:
- Safety: Electrical work can be dangerous. Electricians have the training to perform work safely and effectively.
- Compliance: Electricians ensure that all work complies with local building codes and standards, avoiding potential legal issues.
- Quality and Efficiency: Professional electricians have the tools and knowledge to complete work efficiently and to a high standard, reducing the risk of future problems.
- Diagnosis and Solution: Electricians can quickly diagnose problems and provide effective solutions, saving you time and money in the long run.
An electrical panel upgrade typically includes:
- Replacing the Old Panel: Removing the outdated or undersized panel.
- Installing a New Panel: With higher capacity to support current and future electrical needs.
- Upgrading Service Capacity: Increasing the amperage to meet modern electrical consumption demands, typically from 100 amps to 200 amps or more.
- Replacing Old Wiring: If necessary, especially if it's not up to current electrical codes.
- Adding New Circuits: To distribute power more effectively and safely throughout the property.
- Safety Inspections: Ensuring the entire system is safe and meets all electrical codes.
Before calling an electrician:
- Identify the Issue: Be as specific as possible about the problem you're experiencing.
- Check Your Breaker Panel: Sometimes, the issue can be resolved by simply resetting a tripped breaker.
- Gather Information: Know the age of your home and any previous electrical work done, as this can be helpful information for the electrician.
- Safety Measures: Ensure the area where the electrician will work is clear and accessible.
- Budget Planning: Have an idea of your budget for the electrical work to discuss potential solutions that fit your financial needs.
The difference between a residential and commercial electrician lies in the focus of their work, training, and sometimes the complexity of the systems they work on:
- Residential Electricians: Specialize in home electrical systems, including installations, repairs, and maintenance within a living environment. They work with single-phase power supplies (120-240 volts).
- Commercial Electricians: Focus on businesses and facilities, such as offices, schools, and malls. These environments often require working with three-phase power systems and involve larger-scale projects with more complex codes and standards.
Both types of electricians require specific training and certifications, but the tools, materials, and methods they use can differ significantly due to the demands of their respective working environments.
