Huan T. says, "Working with Ray was awesome! He was punctual, friendly, and professional from beginning to end. Communication was great, the price was fair, and Ray did quality work. After a tenant moved out, I hired Ray to help me repair a few broken things in our townhouse rental unit. The list of repairs that Ray did include realigned 2 crooked/sticking doors, casing for a closet door, replacing a broken baseboard/trim, repairing a large wall that had adhesive from a wall mirror, patching it and retexturing, patching and retexturing 2 window sills, added trim and molding for a TV cabinet/entertainment center, and reattaching a stair handrail. Everything was completed over 2 days, neatly done and chaulked, and Ray draped a cloth over his work area and vacuumed afterward. He was very efficient and worked quickly. After Ray completed the job and was paid, I had painters come in within 2 days to paint the entire townhouse. Upon completion of the painting, I noticed the texturing of the repaired wall was not even and sent Ray a text asking if he could come back to fix it. Ray responded immediately and said he would come back the next day. Today Ray came out, got to work, and stayed until I was completely satisfied with the results. He is truly professional, responsive, and stands 100% behind the quality of his work. I couldn't have asked for a better experience! Because of the wonderful experience, I will be referring him to neighbors and friends in our neighborhood. A bonus is Ray is a Navy veteran and we were able to exchange stories and details about our work and families. Thanks so much for the great work, Ray! You really helped me out a lot the last few days!"See more

Kelly W. says, "G is simply the best Handyman that I have ever come across with. Before meeting him (and after he left Australia :( ) I would (am) always be chasing the contractors to have the jobs done around the house and sometimes they would just leave me hanging. It’s such a shame (for me, at least) that he moved to the US. He’s done all kinds of jobs in my house over the 3-4 years he’s been my handyman, I even ditched my licensed electrician because G did a way better job AND showed up every time, which was always a huge stress with the other guy. He’s is a very decent human being who genuinely cares for the people he’s serving and not only for their money. He’s kind, honest, punctual and delivers an outstanding job every time, always willing to go the extra mile to make sure everything is perfect. I could not recommend him enough! Once you get to know him you’ll know what I’m talking about."See more

How do I hire an electrician?

Go online to find a list of the best electricians in your area. View each individual electrician’s profile and learn more about their services and expertise. Then, read reviews from satisfied customers as well as any issues they may have encountered. This will help you find one with the right experience to work safely in your home.

You should also spend some time researching what qualifications and credentials they have. You might find information about their license on their profile, or you might need to check your local and state government’s website to verify their license.

Is it worth it to hire an electrician?

Even a small wiring repair job can be unsafe if not done correctly. Hiring someone that has specialized training on how to do each specific job is the safest choice.
