When you are hiring a Myrtle Beach electrician you want to make sure they have the credentials to do the job. Electrician schools provide the basic training, however, the actual skills needed are provided with hands on experience and on-going skill training and development. When Should You Call A Myrtle Beach Electrician? These are just a few of the areas where you will need a qualified Myrtle Beach electrician: Repair and maintain your electrical systems Check and update circuit breakers when there is a failure Install appliances in your home or business Work with contractors on a new home, remodel or addition to an existing home Diagnose electrical problems Install ceiling fans Improve connectivity in your home or office complex Add necessary wiring for a pool or external storage building Install external security lighting for your home or office There are county and state electrical codes which must be followed and a good Myrtle Beach electrician will ensure that the project is in compliance with the building codes. Some of the regulations may vary depending on the complexity of the job and what equipment is needed. It is important that the electrician you hire is knowledgeable of the codes. An electrician will work with a variety of tools such as voltmeters and oscilloscopes. An experienced electrician will have the equipment needed to get the job done. You should be leery of someone who comes to your home with an open pickup truck and limited or poorly maintained tools. This is a good indication they don’t have the experience need to get the job done. A Myrtle Beach electrician needs to have a wide variety of skills such as troubleshooting skills, the knowledge to speak technically but the ability to help the homeowner understand what needs to be done without talking over their heads. They also need a thorough knowledge of electrical concepts, circuit knowledge and customer service skills. They need to understand commercial wiring, be physically fit, and have good hand/eye coordination and good English skills. In addition they need to be able to work in all kinds of environments from our hot Myrtle Beach summers to ice storms. The training for a Myrtle Beach electrician provides the skills needed to become a skilled electrician. However, this is just the beginning. Make sure that anyone you hire also has the hands-on experience to get the job done right the first time. Don’t be afraid to ask questions to ensure that you are hiring the right person for the job.

If you are having problems with your electrical outlets at home, the first thing to do is call the local electricians. On the other hand, an electrical contractor may not always come to your home at a moment’s notice, especially if it’s in the middle of the night, during a holiday, or even in the peak season when the contractor is needed almost everywhere. What you could do while waiting for your electrical contractor to arrive is to inspect the outlet and determine what is causing the problem. This will greatly help the contractor easily fix the problem. Plus, it saves the contractor time in inspecting your entire electrical system. And you also save money, especially if you are paying by the hour. Follow this guide to find what is causing your outlet problems and help your electricianfix your electrical system. 1. If one of your outlets is faulty, you should refrain from using all the other outlets in that room, especially those located near the faulty one. A short or overload might occur from having lots of devices and appliances plugged in different outlets. And when this happens, your devices and appliances might be negatively affected as well. 2. Try plugging a device on the faulty outlet. If the device will not work, try to plug it in another outlet. If it works, then the problem would be focused on the faulty outlet. On the other hand, if the device is still not working after plugging it into several outlets, the problem is likely with your device. 3. Look around the room for any wall switches. There may be an overall switch for all the outlets in that room that has been accidentally switched off. Switch it back on and see if the outlet is now working. If not, you will have to wait for the electrician to use a tester on the outlet to check if it has power. 4. If you have several outlets in the room, check the other outlets to see if there are any other faulty outlets. Use a tape to mark all the faulty outlets so your electrical contractor will easily identify which outlets need fixing. 5. Check your circuit breaker if it is tripped. This will be located inside the breaker box, which is often placed in the garage, basement, or kitchen. Open your breaker box and check each breaker if any of them is in the reset or off position. If there are, make sure there is no running or plugged in appliances or devices before you turn them back to the on position. 6. One of the many causes of a faulty outlet is if there is any blown fuse throughout the house. To effectively check for burnt fuse, switch off your main electrical switch and use a flashlight to walk throughout the house looking for that burnt or blackened fuse. If you need professional electrician assistance to help you fix your faulty outlets, call Five Star Electric now.

Question: How do I decide which offer to take if I am fortunate enough to get more than one offer for my Conway home? Answer: Multiple offers are a good thing. However, you would be making a mistake if you only looked at just the price that is being offered for your home. Consider these factors: Is the buyer already approved for the amount they are offering? Never take your Conway home off the market without first knowing if the buyer is actually in a position to purchase your home. When does the buyer want to move in? Does the date they want to go to closing fit your schedule? If the timing is right, the offer is more appealing. What does the buyer expect in the way of repairs? Even you are more than willing to make the necessary repairs, always consider the time it will take to make these repairs. Remember that you will be doing the repairs while at the same time preparing to move. What is the buyer expecting to be left in the house? Often times buyers will request that items such as appliances be left in the house. This may include a wall-mounted entertainment unit. You will want to factor into the selling price the cost of replacing these items in your new location before you accept their offer. It is important to ask the right questions before your respond to any offer for your home even if they are offering you the asking price.
