Expert Tips

"While you may think that a DIY project is a good idea because it will save money, DIYing electrical issues is not a good idea unless you have past electrical experience.  Electrical components are not only dangerous to work on, but if not done right, can pose a fire hazard.  Leave the electrical work to the pros." – Owner, Iowa City Handyman & Remodeling

Electrical Installations and Replacements

We are experienced in installation and replacing most household fixtures, such as:
Fans: Fans are a great way to add a light fixture to a room while also providing a way to reduce energy costs.  We can fix, replace, or install ceiling fans.

Can lights: Can lights are fixtures recessed into the ceiling that provide great ambiance but are generally hard to reach.  We can repair or replace them.

Track and undercabinet lighting: Generally used to provide task lighting and ambience, we can replace or install new track and undercabinet lighting.

Chandeliers and pendants: These fixtures help provide additional lighting in prep and eating spaces.  We can repair and replace them if they become inoperable.

Bulbs: If a bulb is too hard to reach, don’t risk hurting yourself to replace it.  Let us do it instead!

Smoke and carbon monoxide detectors: It’s important to test and replace detectors regularly.  In addition to replacing detectors that have reached the end of their useful life, we can also test and replace batteries to ensure they’re operable if you ever need them to alert you to danger.
​
Outlets: If you want to add an outlet to a space, or replace one because it got damaged, we can perform the work safely and correctly.  We work with most major outlets, including 120V, 240V, specialty, smart, GFIs, and more.

Switches: We can replace or install dimmer, timer, standard, motion and other switches.

Surge protectors: Electrical surges during storms or grid issues are common, and can break your appliances, TVs, and other electrical components.  The best way to protect against this and avoid costly replacements is by installing surge protectors at the main breaker box and/or at each major component.  We can install any type of surge protector or replace ones that have reached the end of their useful life.

Exterior lighting: We can replace and install coach, landscape, flood, and other outside lights.
