FAQs
What types of electrical fixtures do you install and service?
Our Philadelphia-based electricians install and service a full range of residential and light-commercial fixtures, including ceiling fans, recessed and track lighting, chandeliers, sconces, under-cabinet lights, outdoor/security lighting, GFCI/AFCI receptacles, dimmer or smart switches, and specialty fixtures such as occupancy sensors or EV-chargerâready outlets. We handle everything from new construction rough-ins to retrofits and diagnostic repairs.
Are you licensed and insured to work in Philadelphia?
Yes. Reliable Performance Electrical holds an active City of Philadelphia Electrical Contractor License and every field technician is a Pennsylvania-licensed journeyman or master electrician. We carry $2 million in general liability insurance and workersâ compensation coverage, so homeowners, property managers, and GC partners are fully protected and compliant with Philadelphia Electrical Code requirements.
How do I know when itâs time to upgrade my lighting or other fixtures?
Common signs include flickering lights, buzzing switches, discolored or warm faceplates, frequent bulb burnouts, tripped breakers when a fixture is turned on, and outdated incandescent or halogen fixtures that drive up energy costs. If your home is more than 25 years old and hasnât had a lighting upgrade, chances are the wiring and fixtures no longer meet current NEC/Philadelphia code standards or efficiency benchmarks.
Can you help me choose energy-efficient options such as LED lighting?
Absolutely. We provide complimentary lighting consultations, calculate lumens per square foot, recommend color temperatures (e.g., 2700 K for living spaces, 4000 K for task areas), and present ENERGY STARÂŽ or DLC-listed fixtures that qualify for PECO incentives. Switching to LED can reduce lighting energy use by up to 75 %, lower maintenance costs, and improve light quality.
What is your typical turnaround time for fixture installations or repairs?
For most single-room fixture swaps, we can schedule and complete the job within 24â48 hours after your call. Whole-home fixture upgrades or commercial build-outs are usually finished in 1â3 days depending on scope and permit requirements. Emergency service for unsafe or non-functional fixtures is available 24/7, and we aim to be on-site anywhere in Philadelphia within 90 minutes.
Do you offer warranties and ongoing maintenance for installed fixtures?
Yes. All workmanship is backed by a 5-year labor warranty, and manufacturersâ warranties on fixtures (often 3â10 years) are passed directly to you. We also offer optional annual maintenance plans that include fixture cleaning, driver/ballast testing, and proactive replacement of failing components to maximize lifespan and ensure code compliance.
