When it comes to your home, there will always be things you prefer to do yourself. As far as your home’s electricity is concerned, you don’t want to mess around. Many homeowners attempt to do their home’s electrical work to save money. There may be initial savings, but should anything go wrong or you require professional expertise, you could actually end up setting yourself back more money, time, and headaches.
For this reason and many more, it’s always a good idea to hire a licensed and professional electrician to handle all of your home’s electrical needs. Below you’ll find a list of reasons to hire a professional electrician for installation, repair, or maintenance work:
Maintain Electrical Safety
Many homeowners erroneously assume that they can complete their home’s electrical work without a professional. The ramifications of doing your home’s electrical work can be minor to severe, extending from property loss and tragic cases. The problem with amateur electrical work is so pervasive, that even the Washington Post had to release an in-depth article discouraging people from doing their own electrical work.
Live electrical wires can be hazardous. Working with electricity can be confusing and dangerous if you aren’t experienced with the trade’s intricacies. Professional electricians are required to meet stringent safety standards and complete hours of on-the-job training to fully understand the nuances of electrical wiring. Not only that, but professional electricians have a deep knowledge of their tools so that they can complete your job safely and efficiently.
If your electrical work has not been completed up to code, it is possible that your family could be susceptible to electrical shocks, unreliable electricity, and other safety hazards.
At Wes Carver Electric, all our technicians carry the Technician Seal of Safety Compliance.
Electrical Repair: Doing It Right the First Time Around
Because many possible safety hazards come with faulty or haphazardly completed electrical repair work, it’s important that you hire an electrician you can trust to complete your job thoroughly. Small issues can evolve into bigger and more expensive problems.
According to an article from The Spruce, hiring a licensed electrician will give you the confidence that the proper permits and inspections have already been factored into your estimate.

Time and Cost
When it comes to doing work on your home, efficiency and safety are a priority. If your electricity needs to be cut off for any reason or is otherwise not functioning correctly, this can become a major inconvenience to your family’s day-to-day functions.
When you hire a professional to complete your electrical repair or installation work, you can rest assured that the job will be completed with expert knowledge and efficiency in mind. Instead of watching hours of Youtube videos or trying to squeeze DIY electrical work into your busy schedule, it’s a good idea to hire an insured, bonded, and licensed electrician. This will ultimately save you time, money, and headaches in the long run.
While hiring a professional may come with a higher upfront cost than DIY work, professional electricians streamline the process and save you time and energy. With a licensed electrician, you can trust that your job will be done the right way, so future repairs and maintenance are kept to a minimum.
