Outlet and Switch Installation in Los Angeles

Adding outlets where you need them is one of the most common small jobs, along with replacing worn switches and adding GFCI protection in kitchens, bathrooms and outdoor areas.

Typical jobs

Adding outlets to a room, replacing two-prong outlets, GFCI outlets near water, outdoor weatherproof outlets, dimmers and smart switches.

Two-prong outlets

Older homes often have ungrounded two-prong outlets. An electrician can tell you whether grounding is possible or whether GFCI protection is the right fix.

Smart switches

Many smart switches need a neutral wire in the switch box. Older homes sometimes do not have one, so it is worth checking before you buy.

Questions

Why does my bathroom outlet stop working?

It is often on a GFCI outlet that tripped, sometimes in another room or outside. Press the reset button on the GFCI outlets nearby first.

Can I add an outlet without opening walls?

Often yes. Electricians can usually fish new wire through existing walls with small openings.
