FAQs
What types of electrical outlets can you install in Apison homes and businesses?
Our licensed electricians install all major outlet types, including standard 15- and 20-amp receptacles, GFCI (ground-fault circuit interrupter) outlets for kitchens, baths, garages, and exterior locations, AFCI (arc-fault circuit interrupter) outlets for bedrooms and living areas, tamper-resistant outlets required by the latest codes, weather-resistant outdoor outlets, smart/Wi-Fi outlets, and USB-charging or combination outlets. We carry trusted brands and can match existing dĂŠcor with a variety of colors and faceplate styles.
How can I tell if my existing outlets should be upgraded or replaced?
Warning signs include warm or discolored faceplates, loose plugs that fall out, cracking or buzzing sounds, frequent tripped breakers, or two-prong, non-grounded receptacles. If your home was wired before 1990, chances are many outlets are not GFCI/AFCI protected or rated for todayâs load demands. During our free on-site assessment, we test voltage, inspect wiring conditions, and check compliance with the 2020 National Electrical Code (NEC) and Hamilton County requirements to determine whether replacement is advisable.
Are GFCI outlets required, and where should they be installed?
Yes. The NEC mandates GFCI protection for outlets in kitchens (within 6 ft of a sink), bathrooms, laundry areas, unfinished basements, garages, crawl spaces, and all exterior receptacles. Local Apison inspectors enforce these rules to reduce shock hazards. We can retrofit existing circuits with GFCI receptacles or install GFCI breakers in the panel, explaining the pros and cons of each option during your consultation.
How long will an outlet installation take, and will my power be shut off?
A straightforward single-gang outlet replacement typically takes 20â30 minutes. Adding a new outlet on an existing circuit can take 1â2 hours, while running a new dedicated circuit may take half a day. We isolate only the circuit we are working on, so the rest of your home or business keeps power. After installation, we restore power, perform voltage and polarity tests, and clean the workspace before leaving.
Do you offer any warranty or guarantee on your outlet installation services?
Absolutely. All labor is backed by a 1-year workmanship warranty, and most receptacles we install carry a manufacturerâs warranty of 2â5 years. If any outlet we installed malfunctions under normal use within the warranty period, we will replace or repair it at no charge. We are fully licensed, bonded, and insured in Tennessee, giving you additional peace of mind.
How does pricing work, and what should I expect during the estimate process?
We provide transparent, upfront pricing. After a free on-site evaluation, you receive a written quote that itemizes parts, labor, and any permit fees. Standard outlet replacements start around $85 per receptacle, while new circuits or specialty outlets are quoted individually. There are no hidden fees; the quoted price is the price you pay unless the project scope changes and you approve the revision in writing.
