What should I check before comparing quotes?
If your quote is below this range: ask whether the permit and inspection fees are included. Panel work, circuit additions, and most code-required upgrades require a permit, and pulling one is the contractor's responsibility. If your quote is above this range: confirm whether emergency or after-hours pricing is being applied. Same-day electrical work typically runs 50–100% above scheduled rates for the same scope.
Is this a quote from a provider?
