"They couldn't fix my range hood switch but they told me exactly what part I needed to order to get it fixed. They also installed a light fixture and updated an outlet while they were here. I was very happy with their service and will definitely use them again."

"This is my second time using the services of Mr. Electric of Charleston West Virginia. First time was back in March/April time frame of 2021 after the MAJOR ice storm we had here in WV. Ryan, the Electrician that came out then, was fantastic! He was very polite and extremely helpful in restoring electrical service to my garage. I have a separate service to my garage and another service to my house. This time, I am preparing to sell my house and detected a problem with some receptacles showing an "open ground" and knowing this would not pass a house inspection, I contacted Mr. Electric to correct the problem so house inspection would pass with "flying color's". The electrician that came this time was Brody. Again, he was VERY respectful and polite and researched what the issue is and said that it can be corrected fairly easily and proceeded to perform the FREE "Home electrical safety checkup" After completing that, he worked up the estimate for accomplishing the repairs I needed. Brody also recommended the "Advantage Plan" that is offered through Mr. Electric and explained what all is covered. Although the work has not been completed at the time that I am filling out this review, I am extremely confident that all will be addressed and taken care of with no issues. I also want to say that the lady at the office that handles all the administrative aspect of this business is fantastic also. She will go out of her way to help anyone that utilizes Mr. Electric. THANK YOU, Mr. Electric, for having the employees that you do."

"They replaced the entire air system during cold weather in such a way that we had no cold nights. The job was scheduled for five days but they finished in three."

Electricians do a fair amount of larger remodeling and new construction projects but also common residential projects including:
For cost information related to the above tasks, visit our Electrical Cost Guide.
A truly skilled, well-equipped professional with a truck full of parts that charges $100 an hour can be a much wiser choice than an inexperienced hack, working with inadequate tools and no parts, but charging much less. Often, more experienced professionals get the job done quickly with warrantied work.
2. Compare Travel ChargesRates reflect travel times. Travel charges can have a big impact on your costs and are in some ways easier to compare than hourly rates. Many electricians spend a third or more of their time navigating traffic on their way to a jobsite. Every contractor must find a way to pay for the expense of driving each day.
3. Bundle Repair Jobs TogetherWhen you feel it’s time to call a pro, review your list and then conduct a mini-inspection of your home. Look for faulty switches and dysfunctional or crowded outlets. When the electrician comes, you’ll save money and time by getting everything taken care of at once.
