Things to Ask the Pro
When hiring a Local Pro Electrician, it’s important to communicate your expectations, as well as to be clear on what is or isn’t included with their service.
Make sure that everyone is on the same page by asking about the following:
✔ How should I prepare for the Local Pro’s arrival?
- Find out what arrangements may be required before your Local Pro electrical contractor arrives, particularly if children or pets are in the household
- Ask your Pro whether they’ll move your furniture, remove wall-mounted frames and fixtures, and cover plates for light switches or electrical sockets, or if you should do that yourself
✔ What prep work goes into the electrical job?
- Many Local Pros will begin your project with important electrical, plumbing, or repair work to ensure as thorough a job as possible
- Ask your electrician what preparations may be required prior to their arrival
✔ Do you provide a contract and guarantee your work?
- Ask whether you’ll need to provide upfront payment or deposit and whether they guarantee their work
- Ask for an itemized record of the work that the Local Pro has been hired to complete and sign this before work begins
✔ Will you purchase electrical materials or help me choose the right materials?
- You can ask your Local Pro if they will purchase the electrical materials for you at an extra cost, or if that is included in the cost of the job
Frequently Asked Questions
Service Questions
-
- The cost of your job will depend on a variety of factors unique to your home, the electrical work required, and the rate charged by the Electrical Services Local Pro you choose to hire
- We recommend you contact more than one electrician to compare the services the electrical contractors offer and get more than one estimate before deciding on who to hire
-
- DIY is great if you want to learn new skills and have the time to do it. But if you don’t have the time or simply want help, hiring a licensed, experienced electrician can make your life easier
- For most electrical services, however, hiring an experienced electrician isn’t just preferable; it’s necessary. Certified electricians are licensed professionals whose jobs require expert knowledge, specialized equipment, or both, and attempting to take on some electrical jobs without either can pose a significant safety risk to you and your home
-
- Not necessarily. While taking on electrical work yourself would save you the cost of labour, it may not save you money overall. That’s because a licensed, experienced electrician is more likely to get the job done faster – and get it right
- Remember, too, that a DIY electrical repair error can have more serious consequences than most other DIY-related errors. Faulty wiring or improperly installed electrical components can cause fire or electrocution, damage electronics and appliances, and void product warranties if handled incorrectly.
- We strongly advise you to choose any DIY electrical tasks carefully. If you have any doubts, find a licensed, experienced electrician to ensure the work is completed safely and properly
-
- In most cases, yes. Most electrical contractors are available for a full range of electrical services, from emergency repairs to home wiring and outlet replacement, electrical panel upgrades and other related electrical jobs
- Your electrician should be able to confirm, based on your inquiry, which services they cover and which they do not
-
You should ask the electrician about the work they do so you feel comfortable before hiring them. For example:
- Will you be working on my job yourself or will it be one of your employees?
- Do you have liability insurance and Workers Compensation Board coverage?
- How long have you been working as a licensed electrician?
- How and when will I be required to pay for the work?
- Do you have any references you can provide me with?
- Will you provide a written contract that specifies exactly the Electrical Services you will provide?
