Electrician to change and install new light switch

$150

Peter did an amazing job. He secured my solar panel to my roof racks and also cleaned up some electrical wires that I had had done previously and where unsafe (not included in the job). He went above and beyond and I would highly recommend him for many tasks. He also did a great job at problem solving based on the issue and we also was very friendly. I will be using him again and recommending to friends.

Looking for a licensed electrician to replace a faulty miniature circuit breaker supplying power to my kitchen.
