Featured Reviews for Local Electricians, Contractors & Companies in Providence

Puccio Electric Inc
Local Electricians, Contractors & Companies in Providence
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 23, 2015
“In order to complete the sale of my house, I had to address several electrical items resulting from the buyer's inspection. Puccio Electric arrived on the day and time agreed to and within 4 hours completely fixed every cited issue ranging from reversed polarity to installing new fixtures. The Puccio team was very professional and thorough. They efficiency completed each job, cleaned up and moved to the next task. I am extremely satisfied and will not hesitate to use Puccio Electric in the future.”
FB Electrical Services Inc.
Local Electricians, Contractors & Companies in Providence
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 3, 2015
“It's not easy to find a contractor who's knowledgable, responsive, honest and respectful at the same time. I found this out when for the first time I needed an A-Z project done at my single house that I just purchased and wanted to convert it into a warm, comfortable and beautifully lit home. After having three different contractors try to take advantage of my lack of knowledge in the field, I simply asked my neighbor who he'd recommend and ended up speaking to Gene from FB Electric. He said this guy was excellent and reasonable. The rest was easy. The amount of money and time Gene saved me between electrical and HVAC work was substantial and I recommend FB Electrical to anyone who needs work done in their home. They did all the lighting, video and sound, alarms, air-conditioning and heating. I am very thankful and my family has been comfortable for the last two month since they finished.”

Electrician FAQs
Look for licensed, insured electricians with experience in your specific type of project. Request references, verify credentials, and get detailed written estimates. Ask about their specific expertise and ensure they're familiar with local building codes.
Any work involving wiring, electrical panels, circuit installation, or major appliance connections requires a licensed electrician. Simple tasks like changing light fixtures or switches can be DIY, but anything involving your home's electrical system should be professional.
Costs vary based on project scope, materials needed, and labor time. Most electricians charge hourly rates plus materials. Always get a detailed written estimate that includes labor, materials, permits, and potential additional costs.
Your contract should detail scope of work, timeline, cost breakdown, payment schedule, warranty information, and who's responsible for repairs to any structural damage during work. It should also specify whether workers are employees or subcontractors.
Have a professional inspection every 3-5 years, or more frequently in older homes. Regular inspections can identify potential hazards and ensure your system meets current safety standards.
