Outlets, switches & GFCI
DuPage · Kane · Kendall · Will counties, IL
Not enough outlets, two-prong outlets in an older home, or a kitchen and bath without GFCI protection: small upgrades that make a house safer and easier to live in.
We add outlets where you need them, bring protection up to date, and install dimmers and smart switches that actually work with your lights.
Signs you need this
- Extension cords and power strips everywhere
- Two-prong outlets or outlets that will not hold a plug
- No GFCI outlets in the kitchen, bathrooms, garage or outside
- Dimmers that buzz or LED lights that flicker on a dimmer
Questions
Where do I need GFCI protection?
In wet and damp areas: kitchens, bathrooms, laundry areas, garages, unfinished basements and outdoors. We can check your home and add it where it is missing.
Can you add an outlet on an outside wall?
Yes, with a weatherproof in-use cover and GFCI protection.
Will a smart switch work in my house?
Many need a neutral wire in the switch box, which older homes sometimes lack. We check before you buy, or suggest a model that works without one.
