Warning Signs You Need This Service
Outlets That Don't Work
A dead outlet can indicate a tripped GFCI upstream, a wiring fault, or a failing breaker. Don't assume it's minor — have it diagnosed.
Outlets Feel Warm or Make Noise
Warm outlet covers, buzzing, or crackling sounds from outlets or switches indicate loose connections or failing wiring — a fire hazard.
Two-Prong Ungrounded Outlets
Homes with two-prong outlets have ungrounded wiring that can damage electronics and is a safety hazard. Upgrading to three-prong grounded outlets is strongly recommended.
Outlets with Scorch Marks
Discoloration or scorch marks around an outlet face indicate arcing or overheating — a serious fire risk requiring immediate replacement.
Outlets That Spark When Plugging In
A small spark when plugging in a device can be normal, but large sparks or sparks that happen repeatedly indicate a wiring problem.
Not Enough Outlets
Relying on power strips and extension cords throughout your home is a fire hazard and a sign that you need additional outlets installed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why did my outlet stop working?
The most common causes are a tripped GFCI outlet (check for a reset button on nearby outlets), a tripped breaker, or a wiring fault. We can diagnose and fix the problem quickly.
What is a GFCI outlet and where are they required?
GFCI (ground-fault circuit interrupter) outlets protect against electrical shock in wet areas. They are required by code in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, outdoor areas, and near any water source.
Can you add outlets to a room that doesn't have enough?
Yes. We can add outlets to any room by extending an existing circuit or adding a new circuit from the panel. We route wiring cleanly through walls and ceilings.
What is a smart switch and how does it work?
Smart switches replace standard wall switches and connect to your home Wi-Fi, allowing you to control lights remotely via smartphone app or voice commands through Alexa or Google Home.
Is it safe to replace an outlet myself?
Simple outlet replacements can be DIY, but any work involving new wiring, circuit additions, or GFCI installation in older homes should be done by a licensed electrician to ensure safety and code compliance.
How much does outlet installation cost in Atlanta?
The cost depends on whether new wiring is needed and the number of outlets being installed. Simple replacements are inexpensive; adding new outlets with new circuit wiring costs more. We provide a free estimate.
