Testing a new GFCI outlet on a kitchen backsplash

Small parts, real safety

Outlets wear out. Plugs that fall out, outlets that feel warm or switches that crackle are worth replacing before they cause a bigger problem.

Kitchens, baths, garages, basements, crawlspaces and outdoor outlets need GFCI protection. A lot of older Charlotte homes were built before those rules, so adding GFCI outlets is one of the most common upgrades here.

Outlet and switch jobs we handle

Dead outlets

Traced back to a tripped GFCI, a loose connection or a worn device, then fixed.

GFCI outlets

Kitchens, baths, garages, basements and porches protected the way code expects.

USB and USB-C outlets

Charge phones without adapters in kitchens, bedrooms and offices.

Dimmer switches

LED-compatible dimmers that dim smoothly without flicker or buzz.

Smart switches

Switches that work from your phone or voice assistant, set up in the app.

Outdoor outlets

Installer tools including a laser level, tester and drill

Warm, loose or dead outlets

A warm outlet or switch, scorch marks, or a plug that won't stay in are signs a device is failing. Turn off that circuit and text a photo. It's usually a simple replacement, but it's not one to leave for later.

Outlet and switch replacement questions

Why did half my outlets stop working?

Most often a GFCI outlet on the same circuit tripped. Press RESET on the GFCI outlets nearby, including in the garage, basement and bathrooms. If that doesn't fix it, text a photo.

Do smart switches need a neutral wire?

Many do. Older homes sometimes don't have one in the switch box. Send a photo of the open switch box and you'll hear which switch will work.

Can you add an outlet where there isn't one?

Often, yes, especially behind a TV. New locations are quoted from photos before you book.

Is there a price for several outlets?

Yes. The first device sets the visit price, and each additional one is priced lower.
