    "Now days you are reluctant to hire anyone to do any kind of work for you because you don't know what you will end up with. EK Electric is the exception. I couldn't be happier with Ermin's work. He is always on time, courteous and a hard worker. He was initially called to wire and install a chandelier, sconce and 2 ceiling fans. He did such a great job for a reasonable price, I had him do pot lights in the kitchen (14' ceiling), under cabinet lighting and install an island fixture. He even discovered some frayed wires when he removed a light switch. He will be my electrician from now on and I will recommend him to everyone."

    "Teal Johnson came out and repaired the outlet in my garage that was preventing my garage door openers from working. The job was done in no time and he came back the next day to repair a recessed light fixture in a 15ft ceiling. He didn't charge extra for the light fixture job. He said it was included with the fee from his original visit. The price was very fair. He was professional and he knew what he was doing. I will definitely hire him again. Pam W., Tucson, AZ"

    "I think that the electrical work was OK. But the placing of the cutout sheetrock circles was sloppy in places. and the replacement of the bedroom light/fan was sloppy, I had to take down the bottom pieces of the fixture and re-install. Also, the ring from the very top of the fixture was not re-installed, appears to be missing something, or something was broken."

    "KRH responded almost immediately to my request for a quote on my job which was to convert three canned lights in our kitchen to pendant lighting as well to install new track lights and a dimmer in our family room. Shane my electrician came out the same day, gave me a quote, then returned as agreed a couple days later to complete the job. My wife and I are very pleased with the results."

    "I highly recommend Rosas Electrical and will be using them for future projects. The work done was great and at a very fair price. Allen was very nice and patient. I had 2 lights added to an existing switch in my dining room and kitchen and he even installed the new lighting fixtures for me as well. He was patient while I figured how high I wanted each fixture and adjusted them for me. Very great customer service! If you’re having doubts, just call and set an appt."

    "The two electricians were highly professional, quickly found a section of bad wire, isolated the bad section of wire, and replaced it. This corrected the electrical problem in a minimum amount of time, and at a minimum expense to me. If another electrical problem occurs I will definitely utizlze this company again."

    Buckingham Electrical Services LLC Logo
    Tucson, AZ·

    "The goal of this project was to provide 220V for my welder and electric vehicle charger. This presented a challenge as the garage is on the opposite side of the house as the power panel. Buckingham met this challenge by running the wiring from the power panel, up the exterior wall of the house, through the attic and into the garage. The work was completed in one day with quality materials and excellent workmanship. (Even the Oro Valley inspector commented on the good quality of the job). This company: Listens to the concerns of the customer Cares about the details. (no suprises) Does what it says it will do. Charges a fair price I will use Buckingham for any and all future projects that need electrical services and I would highly recommend them."

    "Brian gave us a free estimate and then returned two days later to run the electricity to the needed locations and then installed 2 ceiling fans in less than 2.5 hours.

Frequently asked questions

  • An electrician’s cost per hour comes in between $50 and $100. It’ll vary depending on your location and the type or professional you hire. Areas with a higher cost of living can expect to pay on the higher end of that scale. Licensing level may also increase the price.
  • Usually you’ll pay a higher rate for the first hour. This covers their travel and time expense. Emergency or after-hours rates are usually higher too – expect to pay an emergency fee of up to $300 plus a higher hourly rate.

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.

  1. Do you have a license to perform electrical work in this state?
    All states require an electrical license or work performed under a Master Electrician. You should also ask how many on the job hours of experience they have.
  2. Do you have insurance?
    Never use one who isn’t insured. You can ask to see proof of insurance.
  3. Do you have prior work references?
    You might skip this for small jobs like installing a light or outlet. For larger projects, always get references.
  4. What are your rates?
    Always ask up front. Getting a detailed quote up front is the best way to go.
  5. Who is going to do the actual work?
    Often, a Master Electrician will come out to diagnose and bid on projects, but they have their apprentice and journeyman electricians do the work. This isn’t a terrible thing, in fact it’s common practice. The Master’s license is on the line with any work he supervises.
  6. Is your work warrantied or guaranteed?
    Any reputable company or contractor warranties their work, usually for at least a year.
  7. Are you usually on time?
    Overbooking is a frequent problem with electrical work. Often, a service call goes long, and they end up showing up at your home late. This common complaint is easily remedied with an up-front and honest discussion. If they can’t be on time, make sure they’ll call.

1. Don’t Be Misled by an Electrician’s Hourly Rates

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 Charges

Rates 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 Together

When 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.

4. How to Prepare & What to Know Before the Electrician Arrives
  • Be as thorough and detailed in describing your needs to your contractor. The more they know, the quicker the job will go.
  • Before they arrive, prepare a precise list of items you want serviced. Electricians have budgeted their time for a service call. They don’t have time for additional requests once they are on site.
  • Make sure the electrical panel box is accessible. You’ll pay for the time it takes to access it.
  • Clear away fragile items, knickknacks and furniture from areas where you expect the them to work.
  • If you have questions about the project, ask them before they start. Most are happy to run you through the problem and the process of fixing it.
  • Ask about potential issues after the work is complete. During a service call a professional will spot any potential hazards.
  • You’ll lose power to parts of your home while they work. Be prepared to pause anything you’re doing during the service call.
  • In most cases you’ll have the option to either pay at the time of service or have a bill sent to you. You’ll be able to pay with cash, credit and sometimes check.
5. Install Money-Saving Electrical Fixtures
  • By switching from ordinary incandescent light fixtures or bulbs to fluorescent or LED ones, you can substantially reduce energy consumption in your home.
  • Motion detector switches can help you save money on outdoor lighting while at the same time providing very cost-effective security to your home.
  • Creative landscape lighting and indoor accent lighting can make your home more appealing to you, your guests and potential buyers in the future.

    Comment: Our outside lighting and switches were wired by the home's previous owner with too many switches, too many circuits, questionable receptacles, and nearly all of them with dimmer features. We want to simplify our outside electrical situation. What we want: - Shed on one circuit. Shed currently has a few lights, and a few receptacles. That's all, but it's wired in with all of the outdoor lighting. We just want the shed on its own circuit. - One circuit we are happy with is the nearby ramada lighting and outdoor fans. Just would like some upgrades to those lights and fans. Circuit itself is fine! - All of the other outdoor lights have a million switches, indecipherable circuits, and unknown failures. We would love for those to just be on one circuit with one switch. Happy to change to low wattage bulbs to make it all safe! Just make those lights come on with the flip of a switch. - Camera was wired into a switched outlet. Make the camera not switched, just powered. - Make the various receptacles outside work safely, without switches! House was built in 1996. Must be familiar with how circuits were wired back then. End result, about 3-5 total circuits outdoors (depending on your recommendation), no dimmers, all safe, some upgrades, simple switches.
