Triad is a great company to work with. Showed up on time, were very courteous when at my home. Even went the extra mile and mounted my EV charger to the wall. Would highly recommend for any electrical work.

Triad Electrical Services was on time for the estimate, installation, and inspection of my EV charger. They communicated very well providing updates via text. The quality of their work is superb. They provided clear instructions about how to submit the request for reimbursement of the installation to Duke Energy. Thank you for a job well done!

I have had a great experience with Triad Electrical from scheduling to the electrical work itself. Nick and Craig completed the work for our remodel and did a great job! I really appreciate them for going the extra step and involving me in the process by checking to make sure that fixtures and receptacles were going in the right place. Thank you Triad for your continued professionalism and doing quality work at a reasonable price!

I couldn't be happier with the install. I got a ev charger installed. The fuse box was on the outside of my house behind the garage,and I ran the 240 to the garage door. I got a bunch of quotes from other electricians and electrical companies. They did the work for 1000s less. They broke a fuse switch replaced it no cost, they installed a whole home surge protector, and my 240 line for my car. Passed inspection, and it was still all cheaper by 1000s then 4 other quotes. I highly recommend getting a quote from them before you settle on a service.

Triad Electrical installed my EV charger, and I couldn't be more happy. From the quote to the installation, everything was done on time and quickly. I wanted my charger on a specific side, and they accommodated that request without any issues. After installation, they set up the inspection with the town inspector for the Duke Energy Rebate paperwork. The inspector didn't make my first appointment, but I called to let them know, and they set up another appointment for me. Everything was great from start to finish. Highly recommended!

Great service, professionalism, and fair pricing.

Each project was completed with excellent quality results. Great job!!! Thanks.

Our porch and fan were not working and we called Triad. Nicholas and Frank did some trouble shooting and determined it was the receiver for the remote. They also found a breaker popped and found we had a paper shredder plugged in to a low voltage outlet. Both young men were professional and informed us what they were doing as they went along. I recommend Triad and would use them again for any electrical needs.

After purchasing our first EV vehicles we quickly realized that a hardwired charger would be needed (actually two since we ended up with two EVs). Our electrical panel also was the original panel from the house construction in 1978 with no additional circuit space so needed that upgraded as well.Called multiple electricians to come and give us quotes on our upgrade project. Triad had one of the best prices of the bunch (one other company actually refused to give an upfront quote and said they would add pricing as they hit issues. No thank you). They also had the best review rating of the ones that we called.Harvey (the representative) was on time for the quote and listened carefully to what I wanted completed. He took note of everything and sent me the quote that evening. The quote was right in line with all of the other companies cost wise. They also spelled out exactly what was being done in the quote. A few other company quotes were much more generic (ie we'll hang a charger on the wall, Triad actually stated they would mount within x feet of the front edge of the wall, install a 200 amp panel, etc)Install day came and the crew was right on time. Much to my delight Harvey was back again for the work day. Most of my other home projects the install crew has never seen the project (or sometimes even talked to the sales rep) so having Harvey who did the initial quote and size up back with the install team was a great benefit.The whole team worked very well together and communicated things back to me at every point (When they were cutting power for example). When a new outlet was being added they made sure to ask me where I would have liked those located. Kudos to all.All in all a very great experience with Triad. They will definitely be the only call I'll make for any future electrical work I may need.

For my EV charger, Triad installed 240V, 50A circuit breaker, 50A wiring, and NEMA 14-50 outlet & wall box, and cleaned up in less than two hours!Everything was seamless from the first phone call to schedule a free estimate to the inspection. They text when they're on the way, and they either arrived early, or within the first hour of the expected time frame for each visit (quote, work, and inspection).Harvey walked me through what all I need to apply for Duke Energy's EV charger prep credit and took care of everything else, which included pulling the permits, returning for the inspection, and providing the necessary paperwork from their end.They were easy to work with, communicative, punctual. Communication was smooth and efficient with every one I spoke to -- Leilani, Harvey, Chris. I highly recommend them to anyone needing any electrical work done!

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.

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:

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.
