I've got some routine electrical work that needs to be done around the house. Have any recommendations?
Thanks in advance.

How much does it usually cost to have a few (2-3) outlets installed on the outside of a house?

what is the outside of the house made of (i.e. brick, siding, etc.)?...
also, can you tell if there is any other electricity nearby in that wall (are there electrical outlets on that wall inside of the house)?....

Brick all the way around. There are outlets close by on the inside of the house.

I'm working Saturday.
If it turns out to be an ideal wham bam install, I could do them for $80 each. But not if you live on Port Hudson. If you live on Port Hudson, I need further info.

Lol nope should be pretty straightforward. Email? I'm going out of town this weekend but have plenty of time (just moved in).

Do you have a receptacle circuit to tie into near by? Do you have any outside outlets...lights..etc. the circuit rating on said load and the amount of load on existing circuit? Do you have a box outside? If you can answer any of these...if you're willing and want to learn, do it yourself. On a scale of 1-10 for electrical work that's about a 3.
I'm also an electrician...

Just read again...you want to pull from inside outlet. Still simple...but I doubt you have a rotary hammer..

Yeah worth it to me to have a licensed professional do it... especially through brick.
P.S. sorry for the hijack.

Sorry. I'm in the bluebonnet/Burbank area.
I've got some shoddy wiring I need to have redone. My front porch lights both burn out as soon as new bulbs are put it, there are a couple of exposed wires on those, and then the electricity in one room of my house has crapped out -both the overhead light and the wall sockets (no, it isn't a fuse).
