What questions should I ask before hiring an electrician?

Ask for their license number, proof of liability insurance and workers' comp, whether they pull permits for the job, and if they guarantee their work. A licensed electrician should never hesitate to pull a permit — unpermitted work creates problems when selling your home.

Electricians typically charge $75–$150/hour. Common jobs: panel upgrade (100–200A) $1,200–$3,500; EV charger installation $500–$1,500; ceiling fan install $100–$250; adding an outlet $100–$300. Emergency after-hours work adds 1.5–2× the standard rate.
