Do you get quotes from electricians?

<div><p>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 <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-verify-electricians-license.htm">verify each electrician’s license</a>. 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. </p></div>

General contractors:</p><ul><li><p>Complete pre-construction planning, both with the customer and crew</p></li><li><p>Provide realistic cost estimates</p></li><li><p>Develop construction timelines</p></li><li><p>Ensure deadlines are met</p></li><li><p>Acquire permits as needed</p></li><li><p>Purchase supplies and materials</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Should general contractors be certified or licensed?

<div><p>While city and state laws vary on general contractor licensing requirements, hiring an unlicensed general contractor could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations. Be sure to check our <a href="https://www.angi.com/angi-license-check.htm">state licensing tool</a> to review the local general contractor guidelines for your area.</p><p>As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge.
