FAQs
What types of electrical switches do you offer in Lynchburg?
Innovative Solutions Electrical carries a full range of switches to meet residential, commercial, and light-industrial needs. Our catalog includes traditional toggle and rocker switches, dimmers, occupancy/vacancy sensors, weather-resistant exterior switches, GFCI-protected switch/outlet combos, and the latest Wi-Fi and Zigbee/BLE smart switches that integrate with Alexa, Google Home, and Apple HomeKit. All products are UL-listed and sourced from trusted manufacturers such as Lutron, Leviton, and Eaton.
Why should I upgrade to smart switches instead of keeping my existing mechanical ones?
Smart switches provide energy savings, convenience, and enhanced security. You can schedule lights to turn on/off automatically, dim fixtures to reduce power consumption, monitor real-time usage through a phone app, and control multiple rooms remotely—perfect if you travel often or manage rental properties. Many models feature built-in motion or ambient-light sensors for hands-free operation, and they integrate seamlessly with voice assistants and home-automation hubs for a truly connected home.
Are your switches compliant with Lynchburg and Virginia electrical codes?
Yes. All switches we stock meet the National Electrical Code (NEC) requirements adopted by Virginia and satisfy the City of Lynchburg’s permitting guidelines. Our licensed master electricians pull the necessary permits when installation work is required, ensure proper AFCI/GFCI protection where mandated, and file inspection requests so you receive a fully code-compliant installation and a Certificate of Occupancy sign-off when applicable.
How long does a typical switch replacement or installation take?
For a single interior switch replacement, our technician usually needs 20–30 minutes, including shut-off verification, wiring inspection, device swap, and functionality testing. Whole-home upgrades—such as converting 15–20 standard switches to smart dimmers—can be completed in one business day by a two-person crew. More complex projects that involve new circuits, multi-gang boxes, or exterior/weatherproof work may require 1–2 days, but we provide a precise timeline after an on-site assessment.
What does it cost to have a switch installed or upgraded?
Pricing depends on switch type, quantity, and site conditions. Basic toggle switch replacements start around $65 per device (parts and labor). Smart dimmers generally range from $140–$220 installed, which includes programming and mobile-app setup. Whole-home packages and commercial bulk pricing are discounted on a per-device basis. We always issue a written estimate after a free consultation so you know exact costs before work begins.
Do you offer warranty coverage and post-installation support?
Absolutely. All switches come with a manufacturer’s warranty (typically 1–5 years). In addition, Innovative Solutions Electrical provides a one-year labor warranty covering workmanship and installation defects. We offer complimentary follow-up visits to adjust dimming levels, reset smart-home integrations, or explain advanced features, and our local support team is on call 24/7 for any urgent issues related to installed switches.
