Questions about outlets & switches

How many outlets can you do in one visit?

As many as you like. After the first one, each extra device is much cheaper — whole-house refreshes are common.

How do I get a price?

Text Boris a photo of the job and a line about what you want done. For most fixture, fan and outlet jobs he can give you a firm price right from the photo — no visit needed just to quote.

Is the price I'm quoted the price I pay?

Yes. You get a flat price before any work starts. If Boris opens a ceiling and finds something unexpected, he stops, shows you, and you decide — nothing gets added without your OK.

Do I need to buy the fixture or fan myself?

Either way works. Most people pick their own fixture online or at Home Depot or Lowe’s. If you'd rather not, Boris can recommend options and pick them up.

How soon can you come?

Most jobs are scheduled within the same week, often in two or three days. Saturday appointments are available.

Are you a licensed electrician?

No. Boris is a handyman, not a licensed contractor. California allows handymen to take on minor jobs under $1,000 including labor and materials, which covers most fixture, fan, outlet and switch work. If your job is bigger or needs a permit, he'll say so up front and point you to a licensed electrician.
