FAQs
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
After an electrician has obtained his or her journey or master license, they must complete a code update course every 3 years.
- What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Do your homework. Ask for references. Don't be fooled by a drastically low price, you will either pay for it in extras or in poorly done work.
- What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?
I wish that customers had a better understanding of how difficult it is to become fully licensed in the state of Michigan. The apprenticeship for 4 years and 8,000 hours, followed by the journey exam that has a 90% failure rate, followed by 2 more years and another 4,000 hours then the even more difficult master electricians exam, and then finally the electrical contractors certification. This is just one facet of what most customers don't consider. The other thing that most people don't really know about is the physics behind electricity in general.
