Questions we hear

Can you replace an old pool light with LED?

Yes. LED versions are brighter on a fraction of the power.

Is pool bonding really required?

Yes. Bonding all nearby metal keeps the water from going live.

Do you charge for the quote?

No. An electrician looks at the job in person and quotes it, free.
