Electricians are qualified craftspeople working in residential, commercial, industrial, and government facilities. Mishandled electrical work is dangerous and can lead to power outages, broken appliances, and electrical fires. Loveland Home Solutions is one of the highest and most reviewed electrical contractors in the greater St. Louis area and is committed to customer satisfaction. Here are some suggestions on what to look for in quality electrical services when selecting an electrician:

Technical Skills

Relevant experience and vocational training are the basis of a good electrician. Find an electrician who has completed a program and apprenticeship, and has an active state license.  To become an electrician, they need to spend between 4,000 and 12,000 hours doing different kinds of electrical jobs. An electrician with a license shows they have put in the effort to become a qualified technician.

Ask potential electricians if they have adequate experience with a particular issue or project. If you need work done in your business, a commercial electrician will be able to perform the work better than a residential one. You can also research how long a company has been in business and request past references to get an idea of the work quality. As one of the most reviewed companies in the area, we stand by the work of our experienced team.

Safety Measures

Taking proper precautions keeps the electrician and the job site safe. Quality electricians will follow electrical best practices, including using necessary personal protective equipment and following safety instructions from appliance manufacturers. Electricians also make sure any wiring is up to code and follows the latest safety standards. Loveland Home Solutions will make sure your home is safe and walk you through options for any necessary repairs.

Thorough Cleanliness 

An electrical technician should keep their workspace free from hazards. Jobsite cleanliness prevents excess debris buildup that could lead to accidents. A clean, organized work area makes it easier to find tools or parts that are needed. Electricians from Loveland Home Solutions wear protective shoe covers and cover work areas to keep your space free of potential hazards.

Good Time Management 

Electricians often work independently, making time management the key to preventing jobs from backing up and creating unhappy clients. Quality electrical services will complete a job in the time frame they estimate and take care to update you if unexpected problems arise. When you make a request for service, the electrician should respond in a timely manner to answer your questions. Loveland Home Solutions responds within 48 hours of your message.

Clear Communication

Contractors work with an array of people from different backgrounds, and an electrician must learn to communicate with anyone. They should be able to effectively communicate verbally and through written communication. You should know exactly what the issue is, options for fixing it, how long it will take, and other pertinent information to your situation. Loveland Home Solutions wants to make sure you know exactly what to expect, and clear communication is just one aspect of our 100 percent satisfaction guarantee.
