Save Money with These Electrical Tips

Every homeowner knows that keeping up on electrical work and maintenance is a necessity but can be pricey! The good news is that there are several ways you can keep electrical costs low.

Here are three, money-saving tips to keep in mind before starting your next electrical project.

Combine Electrical Jobs to Save Costs

You can save time and money on electrical work by bundling projects together. Keep a running list of electrical problems or needs in your home. Then when you call an electrician to do a walk-through of your home, you can take care of all your issues at once. You will find having the electrician attend to several smaller needs in one visit much more cost-effective.

Invest in Cost-Efficient Electrical Upgrades

A good way to combat rising electricity costs is to switch from incandescent bulbs to fluorescent CFL bulbs or even LED bulbs. They provide the same lighting but use less electricity. Another consideration is putting motion detector switches on any outdoor lighting. You’ll save money while enhancing your home’s security. Attractive landscape lighting is another investment that you can enjoy now and also benefit from when you sell your home.

Ask About Flat Rate Electrical Pricing

In selecting a contractor, it is not a good idea to pick one based on the hourly rate alone. Ask questions. Contractors with low hourly rates may add on separate fees or take longer to get the job done to offset the lower rate. Ideally, it’s best to protect yourself by requesting a firm quote for work you want done upfront.
