Do they have Insurance and a License?

Before you hire any electrician it is important to ask them if they are insured and that they have as a license. The reason why it is important is because it is actually the law and the last thing you want to do is break the law by hiring someone that is not licensed. Besides by having a licensed and insured electrician it shows that the electrician knows what they are doing and has finished the necessary schooling. Always make sure that not only does the residential electrician in Montreal – Laval have a license but they are also insured. This is important because if there is some kind of accident or maybe they accidentally break something in your home their insurance will be able to replace it for you. So the very first thing to do is make sure they are both  licensed and insured before you hire them.

Check if there are references

Typically an electrician would have done many different kinds of projects and they should have references for the work they have done in the past. It is always a good idea to see if the electrician you are thinking about hiring has references and if you can look at them. Do not be shy asking them because if they are actually good at their job then they would show you without a problem but if they aren’t then they will come up with an excuse so it would be better to move on. Do not trust an electrician that won’t show you their references. If they are willing to show you their references there is no point in seeing references for jobs that do not relate to you, so see if they have any references to similar projects as what you need done. This is important because the Montreal Residential Electrician could be a master in one area but not so good in another area.
