3 Answers You Need Before Hiring an Electrical Contractor

Are You Licensed and Insured?

electrical contractorWhether or not the electrical contractor is properly licensed and insured will make all the difference in the experience you have when addressing your home’s electrical issues. Make sure that the contractor can show proof of a valid license so you can confirm they’ve been through the proper education and practice. At a minimum, an electrician should have 4,000 hours of training under their belt before they enter your home to perform service.

How Much Experience Do You Have?

You depend on having electricity in your home to do everything from running the dishwasher or drying your hair to simply keeping the lights on. Using an electrician without much experience is a gamble that is rather unwise to take. While a strong educational background is a great start, putting that education to use is what really counts. Ask your technician how many years they have worked in the industry to get an idea of how experienced they really are.

Will You Be Doing the Work Yourself?

It’s important to know exactly who will be performing maintenance on your home, so it’s best to ask your electrical contractor upfront whether they will be the one to service your house or if they have a team that will do the work. If you find out that the contractor works with a team of technicians, be sure to ask for more information about the person (or people) who will be working in your house.
