Why Hire a Professional Electrician Over DIY

Do-it-yourself home maintenance has become wildly popular. With the popularity of television shows that make it look easy, many homeowners are opting to tackle home repair on their own. While this is a great idea in some areas, in the realm of electrical it’s best to leave it to the professionals. Today, Professional Electric gives you a few reasons to call the trusted experts to address your electrical needs.

Bright idea: Consider that your time is worth money. Between the time it takes to gather knowledge needed to tackle a project, purchase the supplies and attempt the job – you can save money by hiring a professional first.

Saving money: Cost savings is the top reason homeowners believe DIY is the best choice. But in electrical repairs, you can actually wind up spending more by doing it yourself. First, it’s good to keep in mind that a professional will identify the problem accurately the first time. As a homeowner, you may spend countless hours on identifying the problem, re-identifying the problem, then working to try to fix that problem. Hiring a trained professional from the get-go frees you up to handle your other duties.
Safety issues: Electrical repairs and maintenance in the home have the potential to be extremely dangerous. Professionally trained experts have the expertise to take care of repairs and maintenance without risk of harm to you or your home.

Now: DIY on electrical can easily lead to electric shock or fire without much of a warning. You will think, based on your gathered knowledge, that you are placing everything where it belongs, only to start a spark, fire or shock.
Later: Improper wiring can lead to serious dangers in the future such as fires.

Peace of mind: Hiring a professional to address your electrical needs provides immense peace of mind. You will not have any second guessing as to whether or not the job was done correctly the first time or if one area could have been done more properly.

Bright Idea: Don’t leave safety to chance. There is a confidence in hiring a professional with hours of proper training.

Troubleshooting: The experts in electrical repair have countless hours of education and training. They are better equipped to troubleshoot the problem from the beginning and know exactly what to do and how to do it.

Work is guaranteed: Hiring your electrical work to be done by professionals, like us at Professional Electric, not only saves you time, money and safety hazards – but the work will be guaranteed for a certain amount of time.

Ways to upgrade your home to a smart home

The world has been a more conscious place. Globally, we are more aware of our carbon footprint and energy efficiency. Even on a federal level, houses are now being held to a higher, safer, and greener standard. A smart home can accomplish all these things while providing you ease of access, peace of mind, and infinite personalization. Below are some things you need to know about upgrading your home to a smart home.

Programmable thermostat
Most homes have a thermostat. When people leave the leave the house, they set the temperature at a cheap setting. When they come home and readjust it, that does not necessarily save any money. The unit must labor continually to get back to where it was. A programmable thermostat will allow you to do this on a more gradual level, even while asleep and also enabling the person to save energy and money. Extremely advanced ones can even learn what you like and when and do it automatically.

Security system
You don’t have to go as far as a safe room to provide safety and peace of mind. There are a variety of security systems today that will fit almost any budget or level. Aside from helping secure your property, since nothing is totally burglar proof, it can also alert the police, fire department or EMS.

Outdoor lights on photocells or timers
Automated light control can serve a variety of purposes. The simplest being photocells, timers, and motion detectors. More complicated systems use lighting contactors which can be operated from remote sources.

Get an instant water heater
Instead of having a tank of water that heats up constantly while you are not using it, the instant tank heats up immediately on demand. This might draw more power, but it does so less often.

Multiple phone apps/Companies that sell package systems
Phones can be your enemy making you way too available, but imagine if you could make your entire house available from where are. There are apps for your phone and computer usually offered as a package thru a licensed agency. This system can allow you to control among other things your locks, individual room temp, lights, sprinklers and garage doors. In today’s high tech society, the only thing limiting what you can do is your budget.
