Hi Nick,

Mike and I just wanted to thank you and Rick for the excellent service yesterday, a Sunday during a major power outage at that.  From the time I placed the call for help to the time Rick walked out of our soon-to-be-warm-again home, it was only an unbelievable 1.5 hrs!!  I so appreciate your ‘straight-shooting’ with me on the phone about whether our problem could be Oncor related or in our wiring and the option to switch our dead furnace thermostat to the one working leg of power we seemed to have.  Rick arrived just when he said he would, went right to work and determined that we were indeed receiving full power from Oncor, but one of our breakers was bad.  He replaced it, checked things out and was on his way.

You have impressed us with your quality of service.  We certainly will use you again and recommend you when someone asks if we know a good electrician….we do now!

The competition is steep and the lighting designs are sensational.  Among the leaders in the race for the most unconventional ceiling light fixture designs of the year, these standouts are exquisitely different and–although they may not fit in with everybody’s interior design scheme–they make for mind-altering artistry that brings the “wow” factor to a select few who are daring enough to shine outside of the box!

Commercial enterprises tend to have a number of heavy-duty appliances and equipment including data processing installations and communications equipment. Hotels and restaurants have various appliances that rely very heavily on electricity too.

When you start looking for a commercial electrician for any scheduled maintenance, a major installation or even any replacement or repair work, you know that you will need a professional that would provide reliable and high-quality electrical services. Here are some tips to hire a commercial electrician in Sydney:

When it comes to electrical work, a poor job can be extremely dangerous to people and property. The commercial electrician you hire should be able to provide services that are in-line with Australian Standards; they should also provide guarantees for their work and this is an indication that they are confident about their own workmanship. Apart from this, you can be assured they will tackle the job in a competent and professional manner.

When any electrical emergency arises, you need to be sure that the company will be able to quickly send out a licensed and insured electrician to your location within the shortest possible time. You also need someone who would be able to meet project deadlines. Any downtime on electricity can have a major impact on the working at a commercial establishment and it impacts their revenue as well. This is why you need to hire professionals that will use the latest technology and complete the job quickly and efficiently.

Only a company that is professional and careful about maintaining its reputation in the field will ensure that every single aspect of their business is in place. They should have well-trained, qualified, licensed and insured commercial electricians on their team. Apart from this, the company should also have the necessary worker’s compensation as well as professional indemnity. They should also ensure that all their personnel undergo regular training; this helps them keep their skills sharp and knowledge current.

Before you decide which commercial electrician you are finally going to hire, it’s a good idea to get quotes from multiple electrical companies. Look for one that will be able to provide you long-term value. It’s not always about hiring one that provides the lowest quote, but they should be able to provide solutions such as energy-efficient installations etc. It’s important that you ask the companies to provide detailed quotes based on your specific requirement; check what’s included or excluded in the quote.

It’s best not to be hasty with making your final decision about a commercial electrician in Sydney. However it’s something you shouldn’t be putting-off to later date either, as you never know when you would urgently need the services of an electrician on your premises. Look for a company that’s local to your area, as that will ensure you get quick and efficient services exactly when you need them.

It’s best to call in an electrician, discuss your electrical requirements and get them to assess what the cost of the various services will be and what kind of preventive electrical maintenance plans they provide.

‘Tis the season to be jolly with thousands of colorful lights glowing from your trees, gutters, front door wreath, and bushes. Billions of lights will be used to dress up homes and businesses throughout the country during the final months of the year. As festive as the light-up Santa and Rudolph may look on top of your roof, you have to make electrical safety the focus of your holiday lighting festivities.

Following are five tips to help you avoid common holiday lighting problems others will experience this year. Commit them to memory so electrical safety does not pull the plug on your merry-making décor this year:

1. If you are putting up a live Christmas tree, make sure it is well-watered and use LED bulbs for all decorations placed on the tree. Dry trees and heat from non-LED bulbs create home fires every holiday season. Do not place candles where they may be knocked over on a live tree. LED bulbs should be used when decorating trees in your outdoor landscape as well.

2. Thoroughly inspect every string of lights and plug-in points before using them indoors or outdoors. If you notice any of the following at even one point on the string, toss it out or repair the damage before use to ensure electrical safety for your home:

3. Power cords should be used to connect strings of lights, but pay attention to how many strings you are connecting per cord. In general, more than three strings of lights could be too much.

4. Avoid hanging your lights with tacks, screws, or nails. You do not want to crack, tear, or otherwise damage the electric cord. You can use insulated hooks instead.

5. Make sure you are plugging outdoor lighting features into ground fault circuit interrupter outlets. These outlets reduce the risk of electrical shorts or dangerous shocks if water, wet leaves, and other outdoor elements get into the sockets.

6. Do not use indoor-only holiday lights outdoors. There are clear differences in how these types of lights are made, even if they look the same. For instance, outdoor lights are created with more insulation so they are not as easily affected by rain and snow.

Do not allow electrical safety to cut the cord on your holiday lighting festivities. Light up the house and allow the big snowman to wave at the neighbors from your front lawn. Just make sure your snow globes, trains, and twinkling tree lights present no danger to your home, your family, and your neighborhood.
