FAQs

How do I know if my electrical outlets need to be replaced?

Common signs that your electrical outlets need to be replaced include outlets that are not holding plugs securely, outlets that feel warm or are discolored, or if you notice any sparking or frequent tripping of circuit breakers. If you experience any of these issues, it's best to contact a licensed electrician for an assessment.

What types of electrical outlets are available for installation in my home?

There are several types of electrical outlets available, including standard 120-volt outlets, GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlets for wet areas like kitchens and bathrooms, AFCI (Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlets for added safety against electrical fires, USB outlets for convenient device charging, and 240-volt outlets for larger appliances. A professional electrician can help you determine which type is best for each location in your home.

What is a GFCI outlet and why is it important?

A GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlet is designed to protect against electrical shock by monitoring the amount of current flowing to and from an appliance. If it detects an imbalance, it will quickly shut off the power to prevent injury. GFCI outlets are typically installed in areas where water is present, such as bathrooms, kitchens, and outdoor locations, and they are crucial for safety in these environments.

How much does it cost to replace or install a new electrical outlet in Louisville?

The cost to replace or install a new electrical outlet can vary depending on the type of outlet and the complexity of the installation. On average, you can expect to pay between $100 and $200 per outlet, including labor. More specialized outlets like GFCI or AFCI may cost slightly more. For an accurate estimate, it's best to get a quote from a licensed electrician.

Can I install a new electrical outlet myself, or should I hire a professional electrician?

While some basic electrical tasks can be done by homeowners with proper knowledge and tools, installing or replacing electrical outlets can be complex and poses certain risks, including electrical shock and fire hazards. It is highly recommended to hire a professional electrician to ensure the work is done safely and up to code.

How can I childproof my electrical outlets?

To childproof your electrical outlets, you can install tamper-resistant (TR) outlets, which have a built-in mechanism that prevents foreign objects from being inserted. Alternatively, you can use plastic outlet covers or sliding outlet covers to block access to unused outlets. Always ensure that these measures are securely in place and that children are supervised around electrical outlets to prevent accidents.

What our customers say

Josh Butler saved my families life due to a maintenance man wiring electrical outlets upside down and keeping the outlet live. He did an amazing job at explaining things to me and being very detailed to make sure we were safe. I would recommend him over and over.
