How to Become a Licensed Electrician in Dallas


If you’re thinking of making a good living by becoming a successful electrician in Dallas, get your license for it. It’s not a quick and easy process because it is a real trade that needs to be properly learned to be qualified, safe and professional. Nothing worthwhile is easy but it can be done if you pass the following levels of the licensing process.
Levels to be an electrician are
1.      Apprentice electrician
When just starting your carreer, you are called an Apprentice Electrician. You need to be trained under a supervisor for 2 years and then you will be upgraded as Wireman Electrician after passing the exams.

1.      Wireman Electrician
After the completion of the first level, you are allowed to work in residential buildings without a supervisor. Here you can start working for residential customers looking for a residential Dallas electrician.

2.      Journeyman Electrician
You can start getting paid to work in commercial buildings when you are upgraded to this level. An electrician who has completed 8000 working hours under a Master Electrician can be licensed as a Journeyman Electrician.

3.      Master Electrician
A Master Electrician is the one qualified to supervise all electricians and electrical work carried out by a company.
You can also contact Caddell Electric to learn more about the levels of licensing and how Cadeell can offer assistance to those aspiring to work while getting or upgrading their license.

How to Effectively Compare Electrical Estimates


Getting ready to invest in an electrical upgrade for your home or needing to upgrade or repair the electrical system of your office? How do you know which electrical service provider you can trust?

Caddell Electric would like to offer some simple answers to that question.

First of all, approach two or more companies offering the same basic services and compare their estimates for price, time and materials. If one or more seem either too high or too low, that is a major red flag.

How to compare the estimates?
Here we have listed some important points to consider when you compare the electrical estimates offered by different service providers.
  1. Check if the company is a member of Better Business Bureau (BBB) and has good reviews and customer ratings.
  2. Check for the customer feedbacks, BBB reports complaints registered after the completion of the project.
  3. Check to make sure the estimate includes all the things required to get the job done correctly, on budget and on time.
  4. Compare the warranty period offered and just what it covers.
  5. Ask for clarification for the bids you feel may be high.
  6. Check for the services which may not actually be necessary to complete the job and ask them to remove them from the estimate.
  7. If you find the estimate is surprisingly cheap, check for the company’s insurance and license details.
  8. ALWAYS make sure they are licensed, and insured by the state of Texas. If you can’t verify they are, RUN.
  9. Ask for references.

If you want to be confident your project will be in safe hands, work is performed by well trained, licensed and insured professionals, be sure to include Caddell Electric in the service providers you ask for a quote. We are proud of our local reputation. We’ve worked hard to earn it and will work even harder to keep it!   Feel free to contact us for any of your residential or commercial electrical problems.
