Questions

Electrical work in Arkansas.

Are the electricians licensed in Arkansas?

Electrical licensing is issued at the state level, and in some places at the city level on top of that — a contractor licensed elsewhere is not automatically permitted to work in Arkansas. The contractors you hear from are independent businesses: ask each for their Arkansas licence number and check it with the state licensing board before you agree to work.

Where in Arkansas can I send a request?

Anywhere in Arkansas. Give us the ZIP code and we pass your request to electricians who work in that area. Coverage varies from place to place, and in some areas a response can take longer or no one may be available.

We connect you with independent electrical contractors. We do not employ them and we do not vouch for their licence or insurance. Electrical licensing is issued state by state — and in some places city by city — so a contractor licensed in one state is not automatically permitted to work in the next. Ask any contractor for their licence number and proof of insurance, and check the licence with your state licensing board before you agree to work.

Larger work — a panel upgrade, a rewire, a generator — is quoted from a site visit because the price is driven by what is behind the wall, how far the run is, and what the permit requires. Every price range shown on this site is an estimate. Ask each contractor for a written quote before you agree to any work.
