FAQs
What types of electrical switches does Dependable Performance Electrical install in Tellico Plains?
Our licensed electricians install a full spectrum of residential and light-commercial switches, including traditional toggle and rocker switches, dimmers, occupancy/vacancy sensors, three-way and four-way configurations, weather-resistant exterior switches, GFCI-protected switch/outlet combos, and the latest Wi-Fi and Z-Wave smart switches. All products we use are UL-listed and meet or exceed the current National Electrical Code (NEC) requirements.
How do I choose the right switch style and rating for my project?
During your on-site consultation we evaluate the load, location, and intended use of the circuit. We’ll determine amperage and voltage requirements, discuss control preferences (manual, dimmable, or smart automation), and review aesthetic options that match your décor. We then present code-compliant recommendations and an upfront price so you can select the safest and most cost-effective solution.
Can you replace my old toggle switches with modern smart switches?
Yes. We routinely upgrade existing circuits to accommodate smart switches that integrate with Alexa, Google Home, or proprietary home-automation hubs. Our technicians verify neutral availability, line/load identification, and Wi-Fi signal strength. When needed, we install new neutral conductors, add in-wall hubs, or perform firmware setup so your new devices function flawlessly from day one.
What safety precautions do you follow when working in older Tellico Plains homes?
Many houses in Monroe County were built before today’s wiring standards. We begin every job by shutting off the correct breaker and confirming absence of voltage with calibrated meters. Cloth-insulated or aluminum conductors are inspected for degradation, boxes are checked for proper grounding, and connections are tightened to manufacturer torque specs. If we find unsafe wiring, we’ll explain the issue and provide repair options before proceeding.
How fast can I schedule a switch repair or installation, and do you offer emergency service?
Standard appointments are usually available within 48 hours, Monday through Saturday. For urgent situations—such as a switch that is arcing, smoking, or controls critical lighting—we offer 24/7 emergency dispatch throughout Tellico Plains and surrounding communities. Emergency arrival times average 60–90 minutes, and our trucks carry the most common switch styles to complete repairs on the spot.
Is there a warranty on your electrical switch installations?
Absolutely. All labor is covered by a 1-year workmanship warranty, and most switches we install carry a manufacturer’s warranty of 2–5 years, depending on the model. If any defect related to our installation appears within the warranty period, we will return, troubleshoot, and repair or replace the switch at no additional cost. Extended maintenance plans are also available for smart-home systems.
