"Beware! I hired them to install a 30amp outlet for a camper, upon inspection it did not pass and WAS NOT SAFE. The wrong amp size wires were used and the wires under the plastic was exposed and almost touching which could have been potentially very dangerous. The company admitted fault upon contact that the technician needed and would get additional training. They would not partially refund at all for their improper work, even though they have a warranty they boast about and a slogan that says if your not thrilled you’re not billed and sundays are for God. Very disappointed, if I had to do over again I would have chosen Atomic Electrical who fixed their faulty and dangerous work."

"This company is extremely predatory! A family member had an hvac unit installed approx 4 years ago and every year the heat would not function properly and would switch to auxiliary emergency mode and was told "it's too cold to run properly." It never was frozen over.ot just wouldn't turn on! She has lived in climates with -20 degree winters and 20 year old appliances and never had the heat not work due to it being "too cold". During the summer, her AC never pumped out cold air properly and was told "it's too hot for it too work properly." Literally every few months she had the unit "serviced" and would have to call back when it stopped working again. The unit had a 10 year manufacturer warranty and each time she had someone come out she was told parts and services were not included! Each time she had to fight with them to say she has the warranty and didnt have to pay. She was also told no one could service this equipment other than them or it would void the warranty. After contacting the manufacturer of the unit, they said that was an out right lie and when we brought that up to the technician he admitted that she was told a lie. We were told the owner would come and assess the unit personally but never showed and only sent techs. Only until she mentioned her son in laws dad was a retired general contractor and was going to send in one of his guys to check the unit did they finally find the problem they couldn't seem to find the last few years. Had she not fought about the warranty, called traine, and spoke with family, this company would have charged her over $800-1000 each time they came out to "fix" the problem. To do that to a older widow is disgusting and people should be aware of what this company does to it's customers. We will also be reporting to them better business bureau and to trane."

The average cost of a home security system is about $700, ranging from $280 to $1,150. Costs to consider include equipment, surveillance fees, and other additional features. Cost factors that determine your system’s price include the type of security system, materials, labor, activation fees, monthly fees, and permits. Additional features and upgrades may include:
Video surveillance monitoring: $40–$65 per month
Smart home locks: $150
Smart home lighting: $15–$90
Smart smoke, fire, and carbon monoxide alarms: $35–$100
Smart thermostat: $130–$500
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.
Yes, a home security system can be worth it for your peace of mind alone, but it can also save you up to 20% on your home insurance. The insurance savings will help defray the initial setup costs and subscription costs over time. Locations with higher crime rates also make home security systems a valuable investment, but it ultimately depends on your personal preferences and asset values.
Yes, most states require HVAC technicians to be certified, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed HVAC technician could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.
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.
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.
