What our Light Switch and Outlet Replacement services include:

Like-for-Like Replacements: We can replace existing light switches and outlets with new ones of the same type and wiring configuration. This includes:
- Removing the old switch or outlet.
- Connecting the wiring to the new device, ensuring proper polarity and grounding.
- Mounting the new device securely.
- Testing the new device to ensure proper operation.

Replacing Standard Switches with Dimmers (if existing wiring is compatible): We can replace standard on/off switches with dimmer switches, provided the existing wiring is suitable for dimming.
Replacing Standard Outlets with GFCI Outlets (in appropriate locations, if existing wiring is compatible): We can replace standard outlets with Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) outlets in areas where they are required by code, such as bathrooms, kitchens, and outdoor locations, provided the existing wiring is compatible.

What our Light Switch and Outlet Replacement services do NOT include:

Running new wiring: This includes adding new circuits, extending existing circuits, or changing the wiring configuration. This requires a licensed electrician.
Converting two-prong outlets to three-prong outlets without proper grounding: This is a safety hazard and requires a licensed electrician to install proper grounding.
Working on electrical panels or breaker boxes: This is extremely dangerous and must be done by a licensed electrician.
Installing dedicated circuits for appliances: This requires a licensed electrician.
Any work that requires permits or inspections: Electrical work often requires permits and inspections to ensure it meets safety standards. This is the responsibility of a licensed electrician.
