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.

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:

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
