Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the benefit of LED lights?

A: Safer, stronger, last longer, energy saving (save $$$) and Eco-friendly.

 

Q: Do I need to replace my service panel?

A: Your service panel is the heart of the electrical system. Most service panels will last up to and over 25 years, but this is a case to case basis. Some panels (Zinsco, Federal Pacific) often cause problems like burnt breakers, overloaded circuits, and possible power failure due to bad design. Others like Square D and Murry can last long time. But any of the problems listed below can be a reason to replace your service panel.

  • Warm or hot breakers
  • Burnt smell coming out the panel
  • Flicking lights
  • Irregular and discontinuous power

Q: Do I need to buy permit for my project?

A: We suggest you get a permit for all projects. Permits protect you, your home, and your investment. They are designed to ensure that licensed contractors do their work when required. Inspections ensure that work is done safely and that it meets the minimum code requirements. Minor problems that could lead to costly repairs, liability and life/safety issues can be detected during permit inspections and brought to your attention before the situation worsens.

We just used farrington electric for a kitchen and family room remodel. Troy helped us tremendously and had many suggestions that were very helpful. He was at our home everyday on time ready to work. When he left at the end of each day he cleaned up. Most important he did quality work that we are extremely happy with.
