How often should Madison homeowners get electrician?
Given Madison's cold winters averaging 20°f with 51 inches of annual snowfall, most homeowners benefit from electrician at least once a year. Heavy snow removal from roofs and lakefront properties (Nov–March) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.

When should I call an electrician?
Call an electrician for flickering lights, tripping breakers, burning smells, warm outlets or switches, any work involving the electrical panel, adding new circuits, or installing hardwired fixtures.
How much does an electrician cost?
Most electricians charge $75–$150/hour or flat rates for common jobs. Panel work, permits, and complex wiring projects are quoted as lump sums.

Our electricians hold state licenses (journeyman or master) and carry liability insurance. We can provide license numbers on request.
Do I need a permit for electrical work?
