Signature Property Services, LLC is a family run electrical contractor. We are licensed and insured as well as locally owned and operated. We value our customers and work hard to deliver expert workmanship and excellent customer service. Call us today to discuss your electrical project.
"The main job objective was to install a 2019 Hayward Aqua Plus PL-Plus automation and chlorination system for our salt water swimming pool by removing the older, non-functional, Aqua Logic AQL-P-4 Goldline controller. This required wiring 120 VAC to the new controller, wiring the existing temperature and water flow sensors, wiring the pool lights and water pump, and reinstalling circuit breakers and an external 120VAC outlet. The swimming pool electrical bonding system was examined and maintained. Joe Giangrasso saved me money by recommending not replacing the original circuit breakers. A Hayward Goldline wireless base station, ALQ-BASE-RF, was also installed replacing the wired controller. In addition, the electricians, Joe and Robbie, fixed the problem with an outdoor lamp (the ground fault interrupter circuit had tripped) and, on a separate circuit, determined that the outdoor outlet on the rear deck was corroded and, as a result, provided a resistive drop to 88 VAC to three additional circuits in the three garages. Garage #2 had one outlet at 88 VAC, Garage #3 had 2 outlets, both at 88 VAC. The problem also read out as an open neutral line. When the outdoor outlet was replaced all four outlets were functional. The work was done quickly and economically. Joe Giangrasso, owner of Signature Properties, is very professional, honest, and knowledgeable. I would hire him again and I recommend him to anyone needing a first class electrician.."

Electrical services FAQs
It’s important to ask an electrician a few questions before you commit to hiring them so you can make an informed decision as a consumer. If you’re getting estimates or considering hiring an electrician, ask them these questions:
Are you a full-time electrician?
Are you bonded, licensed, and insured?
What level of experience do you have as an electrician?
Can you please share three references?
Do you do residential or commercial electrical work?
What kinds of electrical work are you most familiar with?
Will any subcontractors be performing the work?
Are permits and inspections required?
Who is responsible for obtaining permits and inspections?
What is your schedule?
Do you offer a guarantee or warranty on your work?
Will you sign a do-not-exceed clause to keep the job within the budget?
Tipping an electrician is not a requirement nor is it expected, as they build a fair wage into the price of the job. It’s up to your discretion. There are no set rules for tipping electricians, but if they did a great job and you’re so inclined to tip 10% to 15%, it will likely be received with thanks.
Yes, you should get a quote or an estimate from an electrician. Most electricians offer free estimates or quotes. When getting quotes, do your research and verify each electrician’s license. Get quotes from three different electricians to compare. If the prices or items listed appear different on the quotes, ask the electrician to clarify. Learning as much as you can about the electrical work you want done will help you get the most accurate estimate.
Qualified, licensed electricians will charge from $50 to $100 per hour. The cost to hire an electrician for emergency visits may range from $100 to $200 per hour because this urgent service usually takes place during off hours and may require an electrician to leave or reschedule jobs they’re currently working on. Scheduling work on holidays or during periods of high customer demand, like after a major storm, will also lead to higher rates or extra fees.
Yes, although there are different types of electricians, they must be licensed, certified, and in most cases insured. States have different requirements for electrician licensing and certifications. In some cases, there may be licensing requirements at the local level, but not the state level. It’s always a good practice to confirm requirements with your local municipality. If licensing is not required in your area, you may pay more for a licensed electrician with experience than one who is not licensed or certified, but you’re likely to get a better end result for your project.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
