While there are many do-it-yourself projects people are willing to try around their home, like painting walls or tiling a bathroom floor, most will balk when it comes to doing electrical work themselves.
That’s a wise decision. There are many risks when it comes to attempting electrical work in your home. If you don’t know what you’re doing, your work could violate building codes, meaning you’ll have to spend money on repairs if you sell your home someday and it gets noticed on an inspection. There are also safety risks while you’re doing the work and afterwards, ranging from electrical shocks to fire. By the way, many insurance policies do not cover damages caused by DIY electrical work.

We are using more and more power in our homes, thanks in no small part to the increase in home electronics such as computers, laptops, phone chargers, and gaming systems.
Older homes frequently don’t have enough outlets, so homeowners make do with extension cords, which can be hazardous.

Renovating or making additions to your home generally requires electrical work. AFC’s electricians can do re-wiring, adding outlets and switches, and making sure that your home’s electrical panel can handle any new demand.
Remember, renovations often require local permits, and the work must be inspected. Using AFC’s electricians ensures your electrical work will be done right and passes inspection, saving you time and money.
As sales of electric vehicles continue to rise, you may be planning to purchase one the next time you buy a car.
Having an EV charger at home makes sense, but the ones the manufacturers tend to provide with the car can take a long time, up to 16 hours, to charge the battery.
