Our Process
- 1
Assess
We check existing wiring, grounding, and code requirements for each location.
- 2
Install
Outlets and switches are installed with proper torque, grounding, and box fill compliance.
- 3
Protect
GFCI and AFCI devices are installed where code requires, protecting against shock and arc faults.
- 4
Test
Every device is tested for polarity, grounding, and proper tripping before we leave.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do my outlets feel loose?
Worn receptacle contacts cause plugs to fall out, which can arc and overheat. We replace them with new, tamper-resistant receptacles.
Where are GFCI outlets required?
Current code requires GFCI protection in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, outdoors, basements, and within 6 feet of sinks. We ensure your home meets code.
Can you add outlets where there are none?
Yes. We run new circuits or extend existing ones to add outlets wherever you need power.
