Extra outlet installation in Pinos Altos

Extension cords and power strips are a sign the room needs more outlets. Extra outlet installation in Pinos Altos taps a suitable circuit or runs a new one, then adds receptacles where furniture, desks and televisions actually sit, including floor outlets and recessed outlets behind wall-mounted TVs.

GFCI outlet installation in Pinos Altos

GFCI outlets cut power in a fraction of a second if current leaks to ground, which is what protects you from shock near water. They're called for in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, laundry areas, basements and outdoors. Our GFCI outlet installation covers new locations and upgrades to existing ones.

Switch installation and dimmer switch installation

We handle switch installation of every kind: single-pole, three-way, four-way, timer, motion and smart switches. A dimmer switch installation needs a dimmer matched to the LED fixtures it controls, or you get flicker and buzz. We choose the right one.

Signs your outlets or switches need attention

Plugs fall out of loose, worn receptacles
Outlets are two-prong, cracked or painted over
No GFCI protection near sinks or outdoors
Switches crackle, stick or feel warm
Dimmers buzz or LED lights flicker when dimmed

Outlet & Switch Installation FAQ for Pinos Altos

How much does outlet installation cost in Pinos Altos?

Replacing an existing outlet is quick. Adding a new one depends on how far the cable has to run and what the walls are made of. We price by the job once we've seen it.

Where are GFCI outlets required?

Kitchens, bathrooms, garages, laundry areas, unfinished basements, crawlspaces and all outdoor locations, among others.

Can you ground my two-prong outlets?

If a ground is present in the box, yes. If not, we can run a new grounded cable or install GFCI protection, which is an accepted way to allow three-prong outlets on ungrounded wiring.

Can you add an outlet on an adobe or block wall?

Yes. We fish through framed sections where we can, or use neat surface raceway or channeled runs where the wall is solid.

What customers say

Swapped all our two-prong outlets and added GFCIs in the kitchen and bathrooms. Quick, tidy and fairly priced.
Mark T. Outlets

They ran the circuit and set the disconnect before the spa was delivered, then came back to hook it up. Smooth from start to finish.
Tom K. Hot tub

We are on a well, so no power means no water. The standby generator they installed has kicked in on its own every time since. Worth every penny.
