FAQs

What types of electrical switches can Lasting Performance Electrical install or replace in my Greeneville home or business?

Our licensed electricians work with all common switch styles, including traditional toggle and rocker switches, three-way and four-way switches, dimmer switches, fan-control switches, weather-resistant exterior switches, occupancy/vacancy sensors, and the latest Wi-Fi or Z-Wave smart switches that integrate with Alexa, Google Home, and other automation platforms.

How can I tell if an existing switch needs to be repaired or replaced?

Warning signs include lights that flicker when you toggle the switch, a noticeable buzzing or crackling sound, warmth or discoloration on the wall plate, a switch lever that feels loose or sticks, or frequent tripping of the circuit breaker when the switch is used. Any of these symptoms indicates internal wear, loose connections, or arcing—issues that should be addressed immediately to avoid fire or shock hazards.

Are smart switches compatible with the wiring in older Greeneville homes?

Yes, in most cases. Smart switches typically require a neutral wire in the box to power their radio circuitry. Many homes built after the mid-1980s already have neutrals in the switch box. If yours doesn’t, we can often extend a neutral from the nearest junction or recommend a no-neutral smart model. During our free assessment we’ll open the box, confirm wire availability, and recommend the safest, code-compliant solution.

How long does a switch replacement or installation usually take and what does it cost?

A standard one-for-one switch swap generally takes 30–45 minutes. Installing multi-gang, dimmer, or smart switches typically runs 45–60 minutes each because of extra programming and testing. Pricing starts around $95 for the first standard switch and $40–$60 for each additional, with dimmer or smart models running $25–$50 more, plus the cost of the device if we supply it. We provide up-front quotes before any work begins.

Do I need a permit or inspection for switching out light switches in Greeneville?

Simple like-for-like switch replacements usually fall under ‘minor repair’ in the Greeneville building code and do not require a permit. However, projects that add new circuits, relocate boxes, or involve smart-home hubs tied into load centers may trigger permit or inspection requirements. Our team stays current on local ordinances and will handle any necessary paperwork on your behalf.

What safety and quality assurances do you offer with your switch services?

All work is performed by Tennessee-licensed, OSHA-trained electricians. We de-energize the circuit at the panel, verify zero voltage with a calibrated meter, and use UL-listed devices and connectors. Upon completion we torque terminals to manufacturer specs, label the breaker, and test for proper operation. Every switch installation carries a one-year workmanship warranty, and any device we supply is covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.
