| We had a 10x12 dining room wired.
1 center light with single switch
He also did the wiring so the existing kitchen and living room lights can be turned on from the new room, a 3 way for one and a 4 way for the other. It look him the better part of a day for him to do the wiring. Before he started, we made it clear this was not a neighbor doing a favor and he said ok, he would let us pay him. But at the end of the day, he wouldn't take payment. I know he is being nice, and we all do things for each other, but he spent all day sweating in a hot room and attic and we want to pay him. What would be a fair amount? |

| Is this guy actually an electrician or just a handyman? Did you supply the materials or did he? |
|
| He is an electrician, used to have his own company and now works for a company that does commercial, and we supplied all the materials. |
|
| Rates vary widely from place to place, but an hourly rate for an electrician is probably somewhere in the range of $50 to $75. |

| Thanks! |
