What we do not do

• Do not publish fake reviews or fabricated contractor profiles.
• Do not claim NSCB C-2 licenses we do not hold (we are a referral directory).
• Do not perform electrical work — work is by independent NSCB-licensed electricians.
• Do not provide electrical-code interpretation. NEC adoption, local amendments, and AHJ requirements vary across Nevada jurisdictions; always defer to the permit office with jurisdiction over your property.
