Checklist: Hiring an Electrician provided by ServiceMagic.com.

Electricians can be very expensive, and combined with the fact that hiring an electrician is typically a grudge purchase, consumers generally experience sticker shock with their electrician's bill. However, there are several ways to get the most value for your money. The following can help you save money on your next electrical call:

Before you call:
Compare hourly rates of several electricians.

Make a list of electrical problems.

Group electrical problems together and make one call.

Consider skill and experience over a cheaper hourly rate. Having an inexperienced, inexpensive electrician who doesn't fix the problem correctly can require you to call a second electrician. Avoid those mistakes by hiring quality first.
