Why should I hire a licensed C-10 Electrician, instead of a handyman or General Contractor?
The expertise of an electrical contractor is unmatched by a non-specialty contractor (General Contractor) or a handyman. The C-10 license is difficult to obtain, as it requires a higher level of knowledge in all aspects of electrical, beyond the scope of a self-trained individual. It’s not what your General Contractor or handyman knows that’s the problem, it’s what they don’t know. In some cases it’s enough to put you and your home at risk. A contractor is also required to be bonded. You can check the license and bond status of any contractor you are considering hiring here.
