Frequently Asked Questions
Swapping a standard outlet generally runs $75-175 each, while adding a brand-new one costs more because it
means running wiring from the panel or an existing circuit. Specialty outlets — GFCI, USB, 240-volt — sit a bit
above standard. You’ll have a flat price in hand before we start, with no hourly surprises at the end.
A dead outlet can come from a tripped GFCI, a loose connection, a worn-out receptacle, or a wiring problem
further back — and an outlet that’s warm or discolored is a real warning you shouldn’t brush off. Heat means
resistance, and resistance can mean fire risk. If one feels warm, smells off, or sparks, stop using it and call us;
we’ll pin down the cause quickly.
For sure — running short on outlets is one of the calls we get most. We add receptacles to overloaded rooms,
kitchens, garages, and home offices, tying into existing circuits or pulling new ones as the situation calls for. No
more extension cords snaking across the floor or unplugging a lamp just to charge a phone.
A GFCI outlet kills power instantly the moment it senses a ground fault, protecting you from shock anywhere
water and electricity get close. Code calls for them in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, outdoors, and laundry
areas. If your wet-area outlets aren’t GFCI-protected, the home isn’t meeting current safety standards — and
that’s a quick fix for us.
Yes — and in older Gainesville and Hall County homes this is a common, worthwhile upgrade. Two-prong
outlets aren’t grounded, which leaves you and your electronics with less protection. We’ll properly ground them,
or add GFCI protection where a true ground isn’t available, and bring those outlets up to a safer modern
standard.
