"TLDR: Extremely unprofessional owner. They say you see someoneâ s true character in the face of adversity. I asked for a correction on the bill which was met with gross overreaction, threats and belligerence. I found Andy and Luminosity on Craigslist. I reached out and he was quick to respond via text. I was paying hourly labor and looking for a panel upgrade to 200amp and help running a EV charger to the garage. He was hesitant to come out and see the project so I walked him though the project over the phone. I immediately sent me a list of supplies to pickup which I did. Fast forward to the day we had planned on install. 8:05 am he calls and says the guy he had planned for me is unavailable. I appreciated the call but was disappointed I wasted a vacation day. I moved around my schedule and took another day later in the week. Andy had said I didnâ t need to be around but I have some aquariums I was worried about being without power and I wasnâ t told how long it would take. Anyway fast forward to the day installer Eric shows up. Little late but nothing to complain about, it became clear he wasnâ t given any briefing on the project and we were short many supplies. He made a list and I ran to the store to pickup while he got started. Eric was a good guy, did his best to work with me on doing it right and not cutting corners. It really would have set him up better if someone had come take a look a the project ahead of time. Not long after Eric left I received a text from Andy that I had an invoice. Since I had already bought 95% of the materials it was largely labor time by Eric. After reviewing I could tell he was liberal with the time clock ins. Having security cameras I can tell you down the min when he was here and when he left. This is the text exchange that occurred post invoice review. â Iâ m gonna ask for a slight adjustment on times since I was here and took notes. â I showed him the noted times and where I was being charged an extra hour ($125) unfairly. Andyâ s Response â Unfortunately I have jotted down the hours that are in the invoice, and I did you and favor and didn't tack on my time in all of this, material list conversations with you permit filling out and emailing inspection call. My employees gas to and from his house. Every single bit of time spent on your job costs me money. The invoice isn't changingâ I was quite frankly shocked at this response. I tried giving him a call that was promptly send to the messaging service. My response â Iâ m really saddened to hear this response. Lmk when you have time to have a call. â Andyâ s response â I'm going to cut right to the chase because it aggravates me when it gets to bill time and there has to be a debate and a "call me" so I can jew you down on the bill time. You can pay the bill within a week here or my attorney can mail you the lien notice and small claims notice With the filing fees added on it as well Matter of fact I'm going to have the intent to lien mailed out today before I leave for Florida so your 30 days can start today before filing. Wrong contractor to bill debate with ð â I simply paid the outstanding bill because $125 is not worth my time or stress or arguing about misaligned expectations. Inspection is not even complete yet. Itâ s clear this money is needed much more by Andy. Followup: Inspector said he called Andy but he never returned his calls. I ended up scheduling the inspection and fixing the issues he found myself. Needless to say I will never be utilizing Luminosity again and cannot recommend this company."

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.
