Frequently asked questions about Electrical Help in San Diego

Converting can lights to canless LEDs can be a simple DIY project if you’re comfortable with wiring. The Amico retrofit set is popular for this job, but if you’re unsure, an electrician can help you swap them out safely.

First, mount the controller and connect the wires based on the manufacturer's diagram. Then program it according to your watering schedule. The setup can be straightforward, but troubleshooting wiring can get tricky.

Grounding outlets involves connecting the ground wire to the outlet’s green screw or grounding terminal. If your home’s wiring isn’t grounded, it’s best to have an electrician handle it.

Installation time depends on the complexity of the job. For example, mounting a TV might take an hour, while installing a ceiling fan or new outlet could take a couple of hours. It’s always good to ask for an estimate based on your specific setup.

Installing a bathroom vent fan requires cutting a hole, securing the fan, running ductwork, and connecting the wiring. It’s a bit of a project, but an experienced handyman or electrician can handle it efficiently.

Installing a GFCI outlet can take about 15-30 minutes per outlet if wiring is straightforward. Complicated setups or old wiring might need more time.

It’s best to call an HVAC technician for an accurate diagnosis and repair HVAC systems and motors can be reapired if the issue is minor, but more serious problems may require replacement.

It's definitely possible. Many Taskers provide same-day availability and respond in 60 minutes or less.

Wiring a 220V circuit requires experience, as it involves connecting two hot wires, a neutral, and a ground to the breaker. A licensed electrician can make sure it’s done safely and up to code.

Yes, but it’s not a DIY project. A licensed electrician needs to run new wiring, install a compatible breaker, and ensure the setup meets code.

You can usually purchase your own fixtures and switches, but some installers can supply them if you prefer. Just confirm in advance and let them know if you need specialty items.

Electrical help typically starts at $50 per hour in San Diego. The price will vary from provider to provider and will also vary based on how long your project will take. More complicated projects such as installing new fixtures may require more hours to complete the project.

  • Nooshi N.Hands down the best tasker I have hired to handle issues with my house and my tenant. Steven has the unique skill of diagnosing the problem, finding the most helpful and economical way to solve the problem and equally important, deal with a very difficult new tenant. He's very skilled and knew how to address all the different problems in the house and not just electrical. He spent time explaining everything to the tenant and schooling her on some things that she was very confused about. In short I would hire Steven in a heartbeat again and will be relying on him to help me with my house. A+++Electrical help
