Frequently Asked Questions

Compliance & Operational Guidance

Are your electricians licensed in Connecticut?

Absolutely. All electrical work is performed by Connecticut licensed and properly insured electricians holding active E-1 Unlimited Electrical Contractor licenses or E-2 Journeyperson registrations. We enforce strict compliance audits on all coordinated field technicians.

Do you charge a diagnostic call-out fee?

Yes. To send a Connecticut licensed E-1 specialist with a fully stocked diagnostic vehicle to your property, a standard service dispatch and diagnostic fee is calculated. This is fully itemized and transparently approved in your client workspace portal before any work begins.

Do I need a permit for minor electrical repairs?

Simple repairs like swapping existing outlets, switches, or light fixtures typically do not require municipal permits. However, major installations (e.g. main panel service upgrades, Level 2 EV charger placements, backup generator connections, or major kitchen remodels) require strict trade permits and inspection checkoffs from the Town of Greenwich Building Department.

How fast can you respond to an emergency?

For urgent electrical safety hazards (e.g. sizzling breakers, active wall shocks, burning plastic smells), our digital triage prioritizes your request instantly. A licensed specialist will call you immediately to walk through safety procedures. For standard non-urgent estimates, scheduling is normally confirmed within convenient morning or afternoon blocks.

What is ROIzilla and how does the portal work?

ROIzilla is our custom operations layer. Once you submit an online request, a secure personal dashboard is instantly created. You can bookmark it to your phone like a native app. There you can upload photos, track the electrician en route, review digital proposals, and handle payments safely.
