I am so pleased to have been recommended to Triad Electrical. The installed a charging station in my garage which turned out to be quite a challenge since my garage is some distance from my house. The electricians worked so hard for hours trying to design the best way to get this done and were super careful with my property and did a great job to be sure I was informed along the way. I’ll be using them whenever I need electrical work in the future. Strongly recommend.

When they were recommended to us by BMW for an EV charger install, I wondered "how different could they really be?" They were awesome, handling the estimate, planning, advice, install, and followup permitting and Duke Energy reimbursement paperwork flawlessly. Would gladly recommend again.

Their electricians repaired my electrical issue very quickly and tested all outlets on that circuit with a diagnostic tool. They found a minor issue and repaired it.I’m very happy with their work and I plan to call them and make a new appointment to add an outside outlet.

I had very good experience with Triad for EV Charger (Tesla universal wall connector) installation at garage. Just gave them call and they came home on scheduled time to provide estimate. Once agreed they came for installation at desired location at garage. They always keep me informed when their electrician will be visiting home via text. They took care of permit. Also, provided guideline and steps to apply for Duke EV charger rebate program. Very friendly people.Thanks

We had Triad install our tesla home charger and they were great. It only took them a short time to come up with a quote (after send them pictures) and give us an installation date, they were also the most affordable and responsive. They followed up promptly and made sure everything was sorted out for us.

I recently had a Tesla charger and whole-house surge protector installed by Triad Electrical Services, and the experience was excellent. Harvey handled the assessment professionally, and Craig completed the installation quickly and with precision. Both products look and operate perfectly. Triad also assisted with the Duke Energy rebate process, ensuring all permits were in order. I couldn’t recommend this company and their team more highly and will definitely call them again for future electrical needs.

I had my EV Level 2 charger installed by Triad, and they exceeded my expectations in every way. The team was incredibly professional, efficient, and knowledgeable. The installation process was seamless, and they completed the job much faster than I anticipated without compromising on quality.What truly stood out was how they made navigating the Duke Energy Rebate program so easy—it felt like a hassle-free experience from start to finish. If you’re considering installing an EV charger, I highly recommend Triad for their expertise, speed, and outstanding customer service. Five stars all the way!

Craig and his crew were efficient during a day long job that involved installing brand new outdoor outlets and circuits, crawling under the house, fishing cable through the garage, installing outdoor lights, and putting in a 220 volt electric car charger. Definitely will use again.

Update 10/31/2024 Three technicians came out and installed sconces at our front entrance and also our driveway; they hung a fan on our porch and swapped out front porch drop lights for flush-mount lights put on a separate circuit; installed two LED integrated fixtures in our laundry room, installed an outlet in our pantry, and installed a dozen trim kit upgrades on our recessed lighting throughout the home. The also installed a larger transformer and resolved a chronic doorbell issue with the installation of a RingPro doorbell system. They worked very quickly and were very affordable. They swapped out a fluorescent light fixture in an upstairs closet and then had to come back and replace the fixture they installed because it was defective. They did so at no additional charge. The technicians worked well with our door installers, and were very professional, attentive to our needs, and happy to explain what they were doing. They had to work in our crawl space four times, with only a 2.5-foot clearance and had to go the length of the home. They remained cheerful and got everything accomplished. Triad Electric has our business for any electrical work needed and they deliver excellent quality and an affordable price. We recommend them highly! 03/15/2024 We had three technicians sent out to hang 2 fans (15-foot ceiling), a chandelier (18-foot ceiling), two garage LED four-foot light fixtures on a 15-foot ceiling, two flush-mount light fixtures in hallway and a room, add a dimmer switch, and repair a short and replace bulbs for corner-mount exterior floodlights. All of the work was accomplished in three hours and the quality of the work, and the courtesy of the electricians, was outstanding. They sought our input on placement, hanging height, and location of furniture they needed to move out of the way. We give them our highest recommendation - A+ on all categories for this type of job. We plan to have them return for some additional work as soon as it can be scheduled.

An on- time, efficient, and effective group. The crew arrived as scheduled, quickly laid out the tasks at hand, and then went to work to finish the job. Despite challenges given by structural complexities, they accomplished the work without delay. An excellent job overview and follow-up procedures were provided. Good crew, good job! Recommend Triad Electrical Services highly!

They were very communicative and knowledgeable from the first consultation to the install day. The person who gave me a quote was also able to recommend a reliable charger for me to purchase since I had no idea what I wanted or needed. The entire install took maybe 3 hours and I’ve had no issues with my ChargePoint home charger since then.

Triad Electrical Services made the process of installing my home EV charger smooth and hassle-free. Before I got my electric vehicle, I was unsure about the costs and available incentives. Triad was incredibly helpful, and I was able to schedule an estimate appointment within just two days.The technician arrived promptly, inspected my electrical panel, and provided a clear, detailed quote. They also informed me about the Duke Energy program, which offered additional incentives.I received my EV the following week and scheduled the installation right away. The technicians arrived the next day and completed the installation efficiently. They were courteous, kept me informed throughout the process, and finished quickly, without any power interruptions.Their professionalism and speed exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend Triad Electrical Services for anyone needing electrical work.

Triad electrical services are great! They installed an EV charging outlet in my garage back in April of 2023. I had no issues until now, when the outletrandomly stopped working. After reaching out, they were at my house within 24 hours. They fixed it up and installed a new outlet for me at no charge.

highly recommend Triad Electrical Services for installing an EV charger! they were able to give an estimate a few days after my request and scheduled installation 2 weeks later. The technician also helped me pick out an EVSE that would work for my electrical panel and told me what to look for when choosing a charger. They are amazing in their communication and provide accurate arrival windows. They also came in significantly below the other two estimates I got, and I was pleased with the result! I’ll definitely be a return customer for other electrical needs in the future.

Highly recommend. They provided a free and fair estimate, completed the work, which included installing a new electrical panel, adding recessed lights in our office and a ceiling fan in our guest room, upping the amps to our stove, and more, in less than 6 hours, and left me with the lights back on. The hardest part was waiting for the county inspector to arrive. They were professional, friendly, and efficient! Would use again.

Triad Electrical installed a wired EV charger for me. I have to say, they are one of THE best service companies I have ever used. Communication was always prompt, everyone was friendly and knowledgeable and all appointments were on time. The install was done with top quality and care for the property. They handled all permits and inspections and provided me with the details to claim my rebate from Duke Energy. Excellent experience all the way around. I will certainly call them again the next time I need electrical services. Thank you Triad Electrical!

Extremely pleasant experience with these folks! Called a handful of places to get quotes on installing an outlet for an EV Charger and Triad was head and shoulders above everyone in ease and a stress-free experience.Customer service from the first call was extremely personable and friendly, scheduling was very easy (with tighter windows than the 4 hours others give you), and service was quick and proper.They handle everything for you and keep you informed. Regular reminders for upcoming service keeps me from wondering if they'll show up. The electricians were also very kind and friendly and did great work.Not a world where I wouldn't give Triad Electrical Services a 10/10 and would recommend them to everyone!

Replacing Switches and Outlets: Your Options
Replacing a switch or outlet may seem to be a simple DIY project, but most people who are unfamiliar with how electrical systems work should stay away from working on any activated outlet or switch. Our electricians will evaluate the condition of the switch and ensure it is replaced safely. Along with safely replacing your outlets and switches, you will discover many other benefits with our professional outlet installation repair service.
Save Money and Time – Another reason to hire an electrician for outlet repair is that it will save you time. You may even save money as well by letting our Triad electrical professional perform your outlet repair service. Our team has repaired countless outlets, which means we know exactly how to get the job done and can do so as quickly as possible.
Protect Your Appliances – Another good reason to hire an electrician to handle your outlet installation repair is that messing with your wiring can cause damage to your circuits, or the appliances connected to them if the wiring is faulty or just old. Our electrical experts know how to deal with temperamental wiring without letting it cause further problems.
Safety – Staying safe is the most important reason to have an electrician handle your outlet repair needs or any other electrical issues you may have. Electricity is dangerous, and a faulty outlet repair could leave you with a serious risk of electrical fires–not to mention the risk of serious injury if you are shocked.
If you need help with repairing or installing your electrical outlets, give our Triad professionals a call today.

Our goal is to be the electrician you rely on throughout all the years ahead, and we perform all our services with honesty, integrity, and skill:
GFCI outlet installations
Any outlet that is near a water source, whether in the kitchen, bathroom, garage, or shop, should be replaced with a GFCI outlet to protect against electric shock.
Home outlet replacement
If you have an outlet that no longer functions, gets hot, or only intermittently works, it is critical that it is repaired and replaced at once. The risk of fire is increased when an outlet is past its prime, contains aging wires, has decayed wire insulation, or other problems.
Home switch replacement
If a switch in your home no longer works, we can install a new, more attractive switch, including toggle switches, rocker switches, push-button switches, touch light systems, timer-equipped switches, smart switches, and every other option.
Repair for “backstabbed” outlets
Backstabbed outlets were installed without screws to hold the wires in place, a common practice in past years. Over time, the wires can loosen, causing a short that burns the circuit, leading to a more costly repair or fire risk.
Smart home switches and outlets
Automate your home with lighting features you can control from your smartphone.
What Are the Common Outlets Found in Homes?
AC electrical sockets allow electricity to flow through an alternating current to any piece of equipment plugged into it. If you need an outlet installed in your home, there are a variety of different types that may be a good fit for your needs.
20A Outlets – These outlets are designed to handle more demanding devices. So, this means that this strong outlet can handle devices without tripping the breaker. The 20A outlets will usually be installed where heavy appliances are used like utility closets and kitchens.
Switched Outlets – These outlets are used to replace one of the receptacles with a switch.
USB Outlets – Used primarily in modern homes, USB outlets provide receptacles for USB cords alongside two normal receptacles.
Smart Outlets – These interesting outlets can be hooked up to your smartphone and turned on and off through that device.
AFCI Outlets – Known as “arc fault circuit interrupters”, AFCI outlets prevent electricity from jumping between wires and starting fires.
GCFI Outlet – This particular outlet is typically installed in outdoor areas or in damp areas in your home. Your GFCI will detect when a current is flowing through an unintentional path. After discovering that your electricity has flown through the wrong path, It will then shut off the electric power circuit that is providing electricity to that outlet.
