Need a great electrician for an upcoming project or repair? Finding the right electrician is important. Choosing a dependable professional who will get the job done correctly and efficiently is not as easy as it sounds.   A Watt Electrical & Specialty  prides itself on it’s reputation for excellent workmanship and great customer service. But for new friends who may not know us yet, we thought we’d compile this list to guide you to in choosing the best electrician for your project.

  1. Ask your friends.  Getting referrals from friends and neighbors insures firsthand experience with an electrician.  Doing a good job isn’t usually a one-time instance.

  1. Research on the Internet.  There are plenty of sites online to find reviews of electricians, plumbers, carpenters, etc.  And while sometimes the reviews can get skewed with one person who had a bad experience, it’s not usually too difficult to discern if the person writing the review just wanted to complain, or whether the grievance they had is a through line in all customer reviews.

  1. Get multiple quotes.  Asking for the full cost of the job and getting it in writing (or E-mail) before the job begins allows you to pick a price that works for you, and insures you won’t be upsold after the work is done.

  1. Local or National?  Find out if the electrician you’re hiring for a job is an independent, local contractor, or if they work for a larger, national franchise.

  1. Check for valid licensing.  Valid electricians carry licenses.  If the electrician you hired for a job doesn’t have a license, don’t hire them.

  1. Check for insurance.  While all electricians must not have insurance, making sure the electrician working on your home has public liability insurance is a must, in case they have an accident while working on your property.

  1. Check references.  If you feel there isn’t enough information online and you decide to go with an electrician who did not come at the recommendation of a friend, ask the electrician themselves to provide their own references.
