Ask Around

Ask your friends and family for a recommendation. Word of mouth is the easiest way of finding a good electrician. A highly recommended electrician gets the job done well.

The Internet

If no one knows a good electrician, use the internet to find a good electrician. Read their online reviews. The best electricians get good reviews. They are reliable and trustworthy.

Ask for Quotes

Call several electricians. Ask them to send their quotes. You must know the total cost before the work begins.

Do they charge per hour? Do they have a call-out charge? Do they include the cost of materials in the quotes? Ask if these things are included in the quote. Pick an affordable electrician.

Warranty

Do not rely on price alone. The best electricians guarantee their work. They correct their work if it does not meet the applicable standards. Select an electrician that has a warranty.

Electrical Job

Select an electrician that specializes in the type of electrical job you need. For example, communications or security job.

License

A good electrician has a valid license and is registered. Registered electricians have undergone the necessary training. So, they can handle any electrical work. Avoid electricians that do not have valid licenses.

Insurance

Electricians must have public liability insurance. The insurance coverage covers you and the electrician who will work on your home. Accidents may happen. If an accident happens, the insurance company takes care of the medical bills.

References

Ask the electrician for references. But do not rule out new electricians. Some new electricians are competent. If you find a new electrician, ask the electrician to provide references from his or her training provider.

Experience electricians have a list of references. They have worked with several people. They have loyal customers. So, do not rely on references when making your final decision.

Complaints

Last, but least, check with the Better Business Bureau. A good electrician does not have negative comments or complaints.
