Mister Sparky knows you are busy and your time is valuable. Having to wait for any service contractor isn't acceptable. That's why when you call Mister Sparky for your residential service and repair needs, we take it very seriously. Our tagline is "We're On Time, You'll See, or The Repair Is Free!" and we mean it. Mister Sparky's on-time guarantee is the best in the country and since our electricians are highly trained, skilled, and experienced, your expectations and needs are always met and exceeded. We give you options for solving your electrical problem and provide you with an exact price on how much it will cost to the penny. Then, upon receiving your approval we will start the work immediately and finish it the same day in most cases. All repairs are guaranteed. If an electrical repair fails during normal use in the first year we will either repair or replace the item at no charge to you. Your complete satisfaction with our electricians and electrical repairs is 100% guaranteed.

"The work was what we asked for, but way more expensive than expected. Our fault for assuming the cost would be relatively close to what our normal electrician (who was unavailable so we couldn't use them) would charge and not getting more of an estimate up front, but over $800 to change out two dimmer switches is a lot."

FAQs for electrical switches, outlets & fixtures install or repair projects in Durham, NC

To select and hire an electrician for your light switch installation, start by evaluating candidates as you would for any skilled position. Ask detailed questions, request a written quote, and verify their licensing credentials. This careful screening prevents unexpected fees and ensures every aspect of the installation, including any drywall repairs, complies with code.

A light switch can malfunction due to compromised wiring or overheating conditions. Faulty connections and excess heat diminish the switch’s performance. If you hear crackling, popping, or hissing sounds when toggling the switch, this indicates active electrical faults that pose a safety hazard and demand immediate professional inspection. Prompt attention prevents further damage and ensures reliable operation.

Installing a light switch takes 30 minutes or less, on average. The installation time depends on the switch type, with dimmer switches requiring additional time compared to standard on-off switches. While the hardware replacement might be completed in 15 minutes, it's essential to adhere to safety protocols, like turning off the circuit breaker and verifying there's no power, for a safe and code-compliant installation.
