Salt Lake City Electrician — 84184
84184 is the ZIP code for Salt Lake City in Salt Lake County, Utah. Electricians working this route handle everything from a dead outlet in a 1950s bungalow to a 200-amp service upgrade for a new heat pump, and the price of those two jobs is not close.
If the symptom is a burning smell, sparking, smoke or water contacting live wiring, treat it as an emergency and cut the circuit at the panel. Everything else is a scheduling question rather than a safety one.

Electrician FAQ for 84184
What does an electrician charge in Salt Lake City, UT?
Expect the same structure as the national market: roughly $50-$150 per hour for licensed residential work plus a trip fee of about $75-$200, with most common jobs priced flat-rate per task. Local labour rates in Utah move the national ranges by roughly 10-25% either way, and panel capacity work starts around $1,300 and rises from there.
What warranty should I expect?
Workmanship warranties are set by the contractor, and one to two years on labour is common on larger jobs, with manufacturers covering the equipment separately. Ask for the warranty terms in writing on the invoice, not verbally.
Do you handle both homes and small businesses?
Most local electrical contractors take residential work and light commercial work such as retail, restaurant and office premises, including three-phase distribution, lighting retrofits and dedicated equipment circuits. Larger commercial projects are quoted from a site survey.
How much does an electrician cost per hour?
Licensed residential electricians generally charge in the $50 to $150 per hour range in 2026, plus a service call fee of roughly $75 to $200. Most companies now price common jobs flat-rate rather than hourly, which means the number you are quoted is the number you pay if the scope does not change.
Is 24/7 emergency service available for 84184?
Emergency requests are taken around the clock. Mountain time applies locally, and after-hours availability depends on the contractor on duty — genuine emergencies such as burning smells, smoke, sparks or water contacting live wiring are prioritised over routine work.
