Glad you asked.  Hiring a Journeyman Electrician distinct advantages, especially depending on the scope of your project. Some reasons to consider hiring a journeyman include:

• Lower Cost - A journeyman electrician typically charges less than a full contracting firm since they’re often solo electricians. You’re not paying for the overhead of a contractor’s business, like administrative fees or call-out rates.
• Specialized Skill - Journeymen electricians have completed extensive training and apprenticeships and are licensed, so they bring hands-on expertise to the table. For specific tasks—like wiring, troubleshooting, or fixture installation, they might be just as skilled as an electrical contractor, if not more focused.
• Flexibility - A journeyman electrician can adapt more quickly to your schedule or make on-the-spot decisions.
• Direct Communication - You’re dealing with the person doing the work, not a middleman.
• Simpler Projects - For smaller or medium-sized jobs (e.g., fixing outlets, installing lighting, or upgrading a panel), a journeyman is often sufficient.
• Personal Accountability - Since their reputation rides on their individual work, a journeyman might take extra care to ensure quality, compared to a contractor who might delegate to less experienced workers.
• Less Overhead Bloat - Contractors often bundle services, design, permits, multiple trades, which is excessive for straightforward electrical needs. A journeyman sticks to the task at hand, potentially saving you from paying for unnecessary extras.

I've been trained as an electrician.  That makes me an an electrician!  I am not a plumber or handyman.
