No matter what your electrical project, working with the best electrical contractor possible will ensure you receive timely and safe service. There are several factors you should consider when hiring an electrical contractor. The expert electricians at Zelek Electric Co. provide electrical and solar service in Old Lyme, Connecticut.

Zelek Electric Co. recommends that you ask the following three questions before making a final decision about your electrical contractor:

• Is The Contractor Experienced? You want to work with someone who has a proven track record in the electrical services industry. The best electricians not only complete an apprenticeship, but they also participate in ongoing training to ensure they are aware of ever-updating industry best practices. In addition, companies with a solid business history should provide you with references that illustrate the quality and dependability of their work.

• Is The Contractor Licensed? Being up-to-date on state licenses and the latest code requirements is another indicator of a quality electrical contractor. You simply cannot afford to hire a contractor who does not possess these requirements. Doing so could leave you with less-than-stellar work that needs to be redone later on or faulty electrical work that can be harmful. Failure to hire a licensed contractor could ultimately prove very costly and potentially dangerous.
• Does The Contractor Have Worker's Compensation? If a contractor does not provide worker's compensation, you could be held financially responsible if an electrician were injured while working on your property. Even simple projects carry some risk, and you don’t want to be financially liable if an accident occurs.
