Wondering What to Ask During Interviews?
Hiring the right electrician for your home’s electrical needs is an important decision that requires your undivided attention. On top of making sure that the project is done right, it’s also best that the electrician in question works safely, with the right knowledge for completing a successful project. Because one of the top causes of fires is electrical problems, it’s best to hire qualified electricians to handle the electrical installations and repairs in your house. Hiring the best electricians to handle these kinds of tasks should entail research and background checks of the potential companies you’re planning to hire as well as looking into the company’s certifications, licensing, and background for complying with safety regulations and codes. Below are 3 of the questions you can ask before hiring an electrician.
Can I ask for references?
Nearly as important as licensing, references can tell the story of the electrician‘s past. If past clients are satisfied with their work, then they’re most likely a good option for your new electrician. Without at least four to five trusted references, it’s best to look for an electrician who has the experience needed to do the best job possible, for the right fee.
Do you carry insurance?
Insured electricians are a safe electrician. If something happens during the renovation, installation, or repair, then the electrician is responsible for paying for the benefits of the person who gets hurt while working on your property. Not only will an insured electrician protect workers’ rights, but they’ll also protect their customers. If theft and damage to property occur, then an electrician with liability risk insurance will have no difficulties replacing damaged or stolen items without any expense to you!
Do you carry a license?
You should ask for their license. Electricians can have a wide range of licenses for a variety of tasks. Your state-licensed electricians are at the top of their profession, while county and regional electricians can only specialize in certain fields and are restricted to specific tasks only. It’s best to give your local building department a call to ask what license your electrician needs to complete the job you’re requesting. Often, building department authorities can also provide you with a heads up to which electricians are the best and which ones to avoid!
