FAQs
What types of electrical switches do you install and service in New Tazewell?
We install and service a full range of residential and light-commercial switches, including standard single-pole, three-way, four-way, dimmer, timer, motion-sensor, and smart Wi-Fi or Zigbee/Z-Waveâenabled switches. Whether you need a basic replacement or an upgrade to intelligent lighting controls, our licensed technicians have the training and tools to handle the job safely and efficiently.
How can I tell if my light switch needs to be replaced?
Common warning signs include a switch that feels warm or buzzes, flickers the connected light, sticks or clicks loudly, has visible discoloration or scorch marks, or intermittently fails to power the fixture. If you notice any of these issues, shut off the circuit at the breaker panel and call our New Tazewell office. Ignoring switch problems can lead to arcing, which is a fire hazard.
Are smart switches compatible with my existing wiring?
In most New Tazewell homes built after the mid-1980s, smart switches can be installed without major rewiring because the required neutral conductor is usually present. For older homes without a neutral in the switch box, we can often reroute a neutral, install an in-wall module, or recommend a no-neutral smart model. During our free on-site assessment, we check your wiring, Wi-Fi coverage, and lighting load to select the best solution.
What safety standards do your electricians follow when working on switches?
All of our electricians are Tennessee-licensed, OSHA-certified, and trained in National Electrical Code (NEC) compliance. We secure power at the breaker, verify de-energization with a certified meter, and use insulated tools and arc-flash PPE when required. All connections are torqued to manufacturer specifications, and every finished circuit is tested for continuity, polarity, and proper grounding before we restore power.
How long does a typical switch replacement or installation take?
A straightforward one-for-one replacement of a standard switch usually takes 20â30 minutes once power is off. Installing multi-way circuits, dimmers, or smart switches can take 45â90 minutes depending on wiring complexity, programming, or needed wall-box adjustments. We schedule convenient appointment windows and arrive with stocked service vans to minimize downtime in your home or business.

Yes. Our 24/7 emergency response team can be dispatched within 60 minutes to address sparking, smoking, or non-functional switches that threaten safety or disrupt essential lighting.
