The legality surrounding Do It Yourself electrical work is complex. While there are some circumstances where homeowners can perform their own electrical repair and installation projects, many cities and counties require permits for challenging activities that can only be pulled by a licensed electrician. So, the answer isn’t always so cut and dry. Electricians have the tools, experience, and specialized training required to perform these tasks safely and accurately. However, some property owners prefer to try more minor repairs or replacements themselves. At Mr. Electric of Fort Worth, we offer premium commercial and residential services for local customers, including electrical repair, inspections, and wiring upgrades. If you’re wondering whether you need to hire qualified electricians for your next home improvement project, read below for some helpful advice.
Do You Need a Permit?
The guys were super nice, I loved that they did the work immediately. Also after having a discussion with them about the static electricity from a lightenimg strike we had and it fried everything they suggested a surge protector to keep that from happening again. So we did that.
Scheduled an appointment with Mr Electric of Fort Worth and received a call they were able to show up early and had Dylan show up on time stocked with a full truck. He was able to diagnosis the issue quickly and restore my power to a few plugs that were causing the breakers to trip continuously. Dylan was very knowledgable, clearly explained the cause and how he would fix the issue, and addressed all concerns that we had. He was replaced two breakers and installed 2 new outlets along with diagnosing the problem in about an hour. Very quick and so far seems to have resolved our electrical issue. Would definitely recommend Mr Electric of Fort Worth!
Dylan was so nice and always on time. Very qualified and explained everything he needed to do in a way I understood. My older house required an outside panel so I had a lot of work but Dylan and his helper worked together very well and finished on time so I was not out of power more than needed. Everything looked and worked great when done. I don't know how he was able to replace the cracked power pole and wiring on my roof so quickly and beautifully. I am very, very impressed with his skill level and would request him for any future work. The company is very well organized and office contact was a pleasure to work with(which is rare since these positions are usually underpaid)so reward her well, she is the "door" to your organization. She and Dylan sealed my deal!
Cody was professional, knowledgeable, and was able to provide me with a quick diagnosis pertaining to a wiring issue in one of my rooms. He gave me the price for the repair/modification and fixed the issue all in less than an hour. Thanks Cody!
The first step is determining whether you will need a permit for your electrical update. Many property owners are surprised to find that tasks they perceived as minor require a permit to meet local standards. Never perform electrical work of any kind until you are sure it is legal to do so. Neglecting this step could make selling or renting your home at a later date difficult.
Always Speak with Your Local Municipality for Details About Regulations
The internet isn’t always the most reliable source of current legal information. If you really want to know more about your local city, county, state, or federal electrical codes and regulations, then you need to contact the appropriate department. Don’t be afraid to call and speak with a representative who can give you the most up-to-date information regarding legal issues.
We provide reliable, professional electrical services backed by licensed electricians and upfront pricing. Our team is committed to safety, quality workmanship, and on-time service for every job. With trusted local expertise and customer-first care, we deliver solutions you can count on.
Why Hire Electricians for Your Next Electrical Repair, Replacement, or Installation?
Even if you discover that you’re legally able to perform a specific electrical update yourself, should you? If you have formal training in electrical work, then perhaps smaller tasks that don’t require a permit can be safely performed. However, those without extensive, hands-on experience should always hire a professional. Electrical work needs to be performed accurately to avoid future safety issues. Mistakes made when repairing or installing electrical wiring, for example, can put your loved ones in danger due to electrocution or fires. When you hire a certified electrician for the task, then you can rest easy knowing that your property is in good hands from start to finish. In addition, they will know the local regulations and can lead you through the process to make sure that your electrical work is properly permitted, so you can avoid legal trouble if you choose to rent or sell the property down the road.
