How to Choose the Right Electrician

Electrical work is licensed for a reason — it's one of the few trades where a mistake can threaten lives and property. This is the short version of how we'd approach hiring, and the criteria embedded in every GigoPro profile.

Start with ratings and recent reviews.

Ratings tell you the average; recent reviews tell you the truth about right now. Read the last handful of reviews, not just the stars. An electrician who fixes the reported problem, explains what was done, and leaves the site clean is the one you can trust inside your walls.

Confirm licensing and the specific job.

Electrical work is regulated in every state — verify the company is licensed and insured for your type of job. A residential repair specialist is not automatically a solar or commercial expert. Check that the company performs your exact type of work.

Get at least two written estimates.

Reputable electricians diagnose, then give a written, itemized estimate: labor, materials, and permit costs as separate lines. Ask whether the diagnostic fee is credited toward the work if you proceed, and whether the quote is flat-rate or time-and-materials.

Verify permits and warranty.

Ask whether your job requires a permit and who handles it, and what warranty covers the work. Professional companies answer these questions without hesitation — and pull permits because it's the right thing to do.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Are you licensed and insured for this type of work?
  • Will I receive a written, itemized estimate before work starts?
  • Is the quote flat-rate or time-and-materials, and is the diagnostic fee credited?
  • Does this job require a permit, and who handles it?
  • What warranty covers the work and materials?
  • How is after-hours or emergency service charged?

Red flags to walk away from

  • Vague pricing that changes once the electrician arrives, or pressure to approve immediately.
  • Refusal to put the estimate in writing.
  • An unlicensed "handyman" offering electrical work — this is never a bargain.
  • Demanding full payment upfront before any work is performed.

GigoPro makes each step faster — reviews, ratings, service areas, and contacts are all on one profile page, so the vetting happens before you even pick up the phone.

Electrical Facts Worth Knowing

A few facts about how electrical systems work — and how they fail — will keep your home safe and your bills lower.

  • A tripped breaker is a symptom, not the problem. If a breaker trips repeatedly, the circuit is overloaded or failing — resetting it without fixing the cause is how electrical fires start.
  • GFCI outlets save lives. Ground-fault circuit interrupters cut power in milliseconds when they detect a shock risk. They're required near water — kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and outdoors.
  • Old wiring is a real fire risk. Aluminum wiring and knob-and-tube systems were never designed for modern loads. If you own an older home, an inspection is the cheapest insurance you can buy.
  • Flickering lights mean something. An occasional flicker can be a loose bulb; a persistent flicker usually means a loose connection or an overloaded circuit—worth a professional look.
  • A panel upgrade unlocks your home's future. EVs, solar, heat pumps, and modern kitchens all need capacity. Many older homes top out at 100 amps; 200-amp service is the modern standard.
  • DIY electrical work is a leading cause of home fires. The most dangerous jobs — panel work, wiring, and service upgrades — are licensed work for a reason. A professional's fee is cheap compared to a fire.
  • Surge protection is cheap insurance. A whole-home surge protector guards your electronics against spikes from storms and grid events — a small investment that protects thousands of dollars of equipment.

Your One-Stop Electrical Services

A breaker that keeps tripping, a room with no power, an outlet that sparks, or a plan to add solar panels or an EV charger — this page is your starting point. GigoPro's Electrical hub gathers verified electricians and electrical companies from cities across the United States in one place, so you can stop cold-calling and start comparing on facts.

Every electrician you find here lists what they actually do: electrical repair and troubleshooting, panel upgrades, wiring and rewiring, lighting installation, EV charger installation, solar and renewable energy, home automation, safety inspections, generators, and commercial work. Each profile shows the services offered, the area served, recent customer reviews with ratings, and contact details. Shortlist three or four pros, request written estimates, and book the one that fits — including for emergencies.

Quality on GigoPro is not self-declared. Before any business appears in search results, we moderate the profile: we check that the company is real, actively operating, and actually performs the work it claims — for regulated trades like electrical work, we look for proper licensing. Listings that stop being active are hidden automatically. That is what "verified near you" should mean.

Pick your city below to see local electricians, ratings, and current availability — or read on to understand the services, get a simple hiring checklist, and learn a few facts that will keep your home safe and your bills lower.

Electrician

Services You Can Find on GigoPro

Electricity runs everything in your home — and because it is dangerous, it deserves licensed hands. Here is what each type of service involves and when you are likely to need it.

Electrical Repair & Troubleshooting

Tripped breakers, dead outlets, flickering lights, and partial power loss are the most common calls. A licensed electrician diagnoses the root cause — an overloaded circuit, a loose connection, or a failing component — rather than just resetting the breaker. Repeated trips are a warning sign that should be investigated, not ignored.

Panel Upgrades & Electrical Service

Older homes often run on 100-amp panels or outdated fuse boxes that can't handle modern loads. Upgrading to a 200-amp service gives you the capacity for new appliances, electric vehicles, solar, and home additions. If your breakers trip often or you're planning major electrical work, a panel assessment is the right first step.

Outlets, Switches & Lighting Installation

Adding outlets, replacing switches, installing ceiling fans, dimmers, and light fixtures — including GFCI outlets where water is near — are everyday electrical jobs. A professional ensures everything is installed to code, grounded, and safe for your family.

Wiring & Rewiring

Homes with aging wiring — aluminum wiring or knob-and-tube systems — face real fire risks. Electricians rewire outdated systems, add new circuits, and bring homes up to modern code. If you smell burning, see discolored outlets, or own an older home, a wiring inspection is worth booking.

EV Charger Installation

Owning an electric vehicle means installing a Level 2 charger on a dedicated circuit. Electricians handle load calculations, panel capacity, permits, and installation—and many companies now list EV charging as a core service. This is licensed work that should never be a DIY project.

Solar & Renewable Energy

Solar panel installation, solar energy systems, battery backup, and solar panel maintenance are a growing part of the electrical trade — and a strong category on GigoPro. Companies here design and install rooftop systems, connect them to the grid, and maintain them over time. If you're considering solar, get two or three proposals and compare system design, equipment, and warranty terms.

Lighting Design & Landscape Lighting

From kitchen task lighting to outdoor security and landscape lighting, electricians design and install lighting that works with your space. Outdoor lighting adds safety and curb appeal, and professional installation keeps low-voltage and line-voltage systems safe and code-compliant.

Home Automation & Smart Home

Smart thermostats, smart switches, security systems, home cinema wiring, and whole-home automation are increasingly common requests. Electricians install and integrate these systems so they work reliably — and safely — with your home's wiring.

Electrical Safety Inspections

A professional inspection reviews your panel, wiring, outlets, grounding, and code compliance — before a home purchase, after a remodel, or when you're concerned about an older system. It's the cheapest way to find hazards before they become emergencies.

Generator & Backup Power

Standby generators keep critical systems running during outages. Electricians size the unit, install the transfer switch, and connect it safely to your panel. If power outages affect your home or business, a backup power assessment is a smart investment.

Commercial Electrical Services

Offices, retail spaces, and restaurants need reliable power and code-compliant work. Commercial electricians handle tenant improvements, new wiring, lighting, and maintenance — and many offer priority scheduling to minimize business downtime.

Emergency Electrical Services

No power, sparking outlets, a burning smell, or a breaker that won't stay on — these don't wait for business hours. Emergency-ready electricians keep after-hours teams for exactly these situations. Check a company's profile for stated emergency availability before you need it.

Frequently asked questions

  • Is GigoPro free to use?

    Yes. Browsing businesses, reading reviews, and comparing electricians is free for everyone. Business owners can create a basic listing at no cost.

  • How do you verify businesses on GigoPro?

    Every profile goes through moderation before it appears in search. We check that the business is real, actively operating, and actually performs the work it claims. For regulated trades like electrical work, we look for proper licensing, and we automatically hide inactive listings.

  • How do I choose the right electrician?

    Start with ratings and recent reviews, then confirm the company is licensed and insured for your specific type of work. Contact two or three providers, ask for written estimates, and compare what each quote includes, not just the bottom line.

  • Can I list my business on GigoPro?

    Yes. Create a free business profile to reach local customers searching for your category. You can update services, photos, and contact details anytime, and customers can book you directly from your profile.

  • How often is the directory updated?

    Business owners update their own profiles. Our team also refreshes hub pages and removes inactive listings to keep search results current. For example, this page is reviewed and updated monthly.

  • Do I need a permit for electrical work?

    Most significant electrical work — new circuits, panel upgrades, rewiring, and solar installations — requires a permit and inspection in most jurisdictions. A licensed electrician handles the permit process and schedules the inspection. Ask about permits before you book.

  • How do I know if my panel needs an upgrade?

    Common signs include breakers that trip often, adding major loads (EV charger, solar, heat pump, new kitchen), or still having a fuse box or a 100-amp panel. A licensed electrician can assess your panel and load capacity in a visit.

  • Are electricians on GigoPro licensed and insured?

    Electrical work is regulated in every state. Ask each electrician for their license number and proof of insurance before work begins. Professional companies expect these questions and answer them without hesitation.

  • How much does electrical service cost?

    Costs vary by job type, region, and complexity — there is no honest single number. Reputable electricians give written estimates after assessing the job, and comparing two or three of them is the best way to understand what your work should cost.

  • Can I leave a review after booking through GigoPro?

    Yes. After your job is done, you can rate the electrician and describe your experience. Verified reviews from recent jobs help the next homeowners in your city choose well — and keep listed professionals at their best.

    A garbage company of liars. Shady sales tactics, poor communication, and customer service that moves on from you as soon as they have your money. You'll get a $9,000 reimbursement from Duke Energy! Find out that's actually the maximum payout based on the capacity you end up with (we got about 75% that). You can apply the reimbursement to cover your monthly payments so that you have 0 monthly to worry about for a couple years! No you can't, their loan company does not do this. We'll have you up and running in April! System was broken from install in April until they finally got it fixed in October. You can't get the reimbursement from Duke until the system is functional so this also delayed my (less than promised) reimbursement. These should cover 100% of your electric bill! Not even close.

    I’ve had a great experience with Top Tier Solar. The team is always friendly, caring, and genuinely willing to help with any questions or concerns I’ve had. It’s rare to find a company where the employees go out of their way to make sure you feel supported and informed every step of the way. Whether it's a quick question or something more complex, they’ve always responded with patience and professionalism. It’s clear that customer service is a top priority here, and that really sets them apart. Highly recommend working with Too Tier Solar, if you value great service and a team that truly cares.

    Edited Review - All systems up and running, got a new project guy and they agreeded to refund any payments I make before the system was up and running, I did end up making 2 payments and it took awhile for the refund check to come in the mail but they did reimburse me so all good. Only issue I had was the system has an app to monitor it all and you have to have top teir setup your account to use it and authorize you to change to settings of the battery. Also I have noticed that the number of panels I have don't seem to generate as much kWs as I was told so might need to add more panels to off set power and the TAX break you get for having the panels installed isnt exactly how I was sold on. The IRS does give you a good amount, which with state and federal equaled close to 30gs but they only give you a little bit of it and the rest gets rolled over to the next tax year until it's paid out, Soo not great. ORIGINAL Review: They came to my neighborhood to go door knocking, and I've been thinking about it for a while now so I went ahead and did it. The salesman and I agree on how the system,With a Battery back up, would be hooked up so the battery would power my house the way I wanted it to, and when they came out to install the system they had No idea about any of that so I had to explain it twice before they understood. Was told the system would be up and running well before the first payment for the system would be Due and since there was 3 months between them installing the panels and the payment due date I was good with it BUT there's less than a week till it due and the system is still not running PLUS my "Project Manager" Ryans phone Number is NO LONGER IN SERVICE!!! What the Hell. I Don't recommend using Top Tier at all in fact I suggest they change their name. I know at least 3 "Uncle Bubbas" who could have had the system installed and running in a week and top tier has had 4+ months

    I told a salesman no I’m not interested a couple times and he continued with his sales speech. I told him to leave the property. As he was leaving he starting running his mouth. We had a verbal exchange and of course he gets out his phone. He then told me to get my wife to perform a sexual act. He mentioned that twice. He tried to bait people and then will video the encounter and show only one side.

    We had Jonathan 1st approach us and was so kind and informative and then we so enjoyed meeting Julie. She also was so kind and not pushy and really wanted us to have all the information possible. She was very patient and to walk in our hike with 4 kids she was so welcoming and patient. I really wish we could have moved forward but financially it’s just not a great time for us. Best of luck Solar Tier and you guys are so blessed to have such incredible people sharing your product like Julie and Jonathan.

    TL:DR ... Pressure based sales and misrepresentation of tax rebate Got a knock on the door asking if I was interested in solar power. Said I was interested and made an appointment specifically, "to learn more." Person shows up and I immediately recognize it's a sales call. On-site salesperson was fine, but when I said I wasn't willing to sign any paperwork on the spot, he then called his "manager". The manager, Drew, was worse than a 1980s used car salesman. Non-stop pressure. Non-stop guilt. Talked about wasting his time. Wasting his salesman's time. If there's any reason not to do business with this company, it's pressure sales from people like Drew. It's an embarrassment. Additionally, they mislead about the tax credit. It is not a check in your hand. It lowers your taxes but only if you're paying that much in tax. Otherwise it carries over to the next tax year. It is a non-refundable tax credit. They make it seem like in 6 weeks you'll have a check from the government for 30% of the price. This is 100% NOT accurate. You'll get the money eventually depending on your tax status, but definitely not a check in your mailbox in a month or two.
