Electric Company of Seattle

Service Call/First Hour Charge - $275

Service calls are great for small jobs like replacing a receptacle, switch, light, thermostat or breaker, or repairing minor wiring issues. This price includes travel time and up to 1 hour of work.

Hourly Rate - $160 hr / $40 per quarter hr

If more time is needed after the first hour, the rate for one electrician is $160 per hour billed at $40 per 15 minutes. Some work requires two electricians working simultaneously, and in most cases the second electrician is billed at $120 hr / $30 per quarter hour.

Electrical Inspections - $275 for up to 1.5 hours

Electrical inspections can be instrumental when buying or selling a home, or if you have concerns about your electrical system. We offer a whole-system electrical inspection for $275, which includes an inspection of up to 1.5 hours, a written report emailed to you, and an estimate for repairs if requested. Large homes or businesses may take longer to inspect and the additional time will be billed at our normal rate.
