It’s DIY weekend and you’ve decided you want to change a bunch of light fixtures in your home. You’ve never done it, but it seems pretty straightforward and simple, right?

Wrong! Any home improvement project that has any involvement with the electrical systems in your home should be handled by a professional residential electrician. Why? Because:

• Handled incorrectly, electricity can be dangerous and even deadly: On average, there are nearly 29,000 home electrical fires annually, with over 300 deaths and 1,100 injuries.
• Even if you do it without getting hurt, you may be missing critical aspects of the job that can end up costing you trouble and more money later.
• Your homeowner’s insurance policy may frown upon any electrical work not done by a licensed residential electrician. If something goes wrong, you may not be covered!

Here are some common home improvement projects that people think they might be able to DIY, but that still are far more safely left in the hands of a residential electrician:

• Installing new outlets
• Upgrading light fixtures
• Switching out light switches
• Anything having to do with your electrical panel
• Wiring repairs

Basically, in any project where electricity is involved, choose an experienced electrician with an excellent reputation for safety and workmanship.
