I need an electrician or qualified handyman for a small job. I need a longer 220V whip run in our porch from an outside GFCI breaker box for a new hot tub. The tub is being delivered on Saturday so it would be great to have it in place for the delivery. Any recommendations?

Looking for recommendations for a licensed/insured electrician who has done whole house rewiring and can possibly add a sub panel/correct the current panels wiring. We want to eventually upgrade to 200amp service, but the wiring is a safety concern. I know it's not cheap, but I'm looking for someone reasonably priced. I prefer recommendations from someone who has had work done and can attest to quality/up to code and fair pricing. Thanks.

I am looking for an electrician to help me put in wiring for recessed lighting. The drywall is out, so I think should be pretty easy? We are looking for this to be done ASAP. Our regular guy is MIA. Can anyone spare some time for a quick job or know of someone? I'm certain we will have more work in the future. Thanks!!

Need recommendations:Looking for a handyman to install an exhaust fan in a bathroom that doesn't already have one. Im having a new roof installed soon, so want this done beforehand so the roofers can connect the vent out the new roof. (No roofer referrals needed, that is taken care of) Thanks! — looking for recommendations.
Susan H. replied:
For a brand new exhaust fan, I'd call an electrician and not a handyman. They will have to pipe and wire and that's something you don't want a handyman to do. I just saw a report of a fire due to an A/C unit being wired incorrectly. This guy did my bath fans...it's been 4 years and no issues. Al at A&K Electric. Call or text 630-918-8386.

Looking for recommendations for a local Handyman who can fix one of our sidings (that fell off during the last storm), plus replace a couple of light fixtures, as well as other misc. repairs around the house.

Any residential electricians in the area change out outlets? I'd do them myself but have quite a few to do.... please pm and give me an estimate... looking at about 30 wall and a handful of switches. They've all been painted over so I'm thinking it'll be better in the long run to switch them out than to repaint over them again.
