Every project is different, but the main cost factors are the scope of work, materials and fixtures selected, the distance wire must run from the panel, accessibility (attic, crawlspace or finished walls) and whether a permit and inspection are required. We provide a firm written quote before work begins, so Smyrna customers never see surprise charges.
“We had flickering lights for months and two other companies couldn't find the cause. These guys traced it to a loose neutral in an hour.”
“Replaced every two-prong outlet in our older home with grounded ones. Great communication and fair pricing.”
“The electrician replaced our old smoke detectors with interconnected units and installed a video doorbell. Thorough and reasonably priced.”
A portable generator with a properly installed transfer switch and inlet is a safe, lower-cost option. Never backfeed a generator through a dryer outlet — it is dangerous to you and to utility workers.
Installed cost varies with generator size, distance from the panel and fuel source. We provide a complete quote covering the electrical installation, transfer switch and permits. Call (888) 592-6466.
