A 100 amp panel is undersized for most modern homes with central air, electric dryers and EV chargers. Upgrading to 200 amps costs between 2,000 and 5,000 dollars and takes 8 to 10 hours. If you have a Federal Pacific or Zinsco panel, replacement is strongly recommended due to known fire risks.
Ask for the electrician's license number and verify it with the state or local licensing board. Confirm general liability insurance of at least 500,000 dollars and workers' compensation coverage. A written estimate, the business name on the vehicle and a physical address are basic signs of a legitimate contractor you can trust.
Outdoor circuits must use UF-B cable or PVC conduit, weatherproof boxes, and in-use covers rated for wet locations. GFCI protection is mandatory for all outdoor receptacles since the 2020 code cycle. Low-voltage landscape lighting under 30V does not need a permit but still benefits from an electrician's layout planning.
Ask for the quote broken into labor hours, materials by part number, permit fees, and tax. A 15-amp breaker should appear as a named line, not just 'misc parts'. Make sure aluminum-compatible connectors, GFCI outlets, or EV charger breakers are listed when needed. Compare 2 or 3 written quotes before signing anything.
Homes built before 1972 may have aluminum branch wiring, which expands and loosens at connections. Knob-and-tube wiring has no ground and most insurers refuse to cover it. Two-prong outlets signal an ungrounded system. Rewiring a 1,500 sq ft house can take 1 to 2 weeks and cost thousands of dollars.
Call an electrician if you notice breakers tripping more than once a month, outlets that feel warm, flickering lights on one circuit or a burning smell near the panel. Buzzing switches, scorch marks on outlets and shocks when touching appliances are urgent signs. Do not reset a tripping breaker more than twice.
Plug-in strips protect one device. A Type 2 surge protector mounted at the panel shields the whole house from utility spikes and lightning-induced surges. Installation takes about 1 hour and should include a dedicated 2-pole breaker. It is cheap insurance for refrigerators, well pumps, and any electronics with circuit boards.
The electrician arrives, walks the home with you, and asks what tripped, flickered, or failed. They test outlets with a plug-in tester, open the panel to check breaker amperage, and look at grounding and bonding. Most first visits last 30 to 60 minutes and end with a written quote listing parts, labor, and any code issues found.
Ask if they are licensed and insured in your area, who pulls the permit and whether the quote is fixed or hourly. Request a written estimate with materials, labor and warranty. Ask about the start date, expected duration and how change orders are handled if the scope grows after opening the wall.
A residential electrician installs, tests and repairs wiring, outlets, lighting and circuit breakers in homes. They read technical diagrams, check grounding and make sure the panel can handle the load. For a house, expect work on 120 V and 240 V circuits, GFCI outlets near water and proper bonding of metal parts.
