"Excellent! They were in and out with a crew in one day. We were replacing under kitchen cabinet fluorescent lights with LED. On one cabinet that sits aline, it gave the optical illusion that it was not as bright as the other sections. Will Martinez the owner, came over on Sunday @ 10 am to fix things South as that it looked as it should. All included in the original estimate and invoice. No Extra Charge. TRUE Customer SERVICE!!!!"

"No response from business. I had to follow up and only then did I get a quick email asking me to contact them if I'm still interested. I tried, again, no response. I'm no longer interested!"

"Do not use Wighton's for HVAC installation. We hired Wighton's to install central AC in our new home. We met them onsite before work began, showed them around, and made ourselves readily available ? we live 10 minutes away and told them as much. We even told them we had left snacks and cold drinks in the kitchen for them. What followed was one of the most frustrating and frankly unacceptable contractor experiences we've ever had. They didn't fulfill the most basic terms of their own contract. Their contract explicitly includes "customer walk thru and proper operation explained" as a deliverable. Instead, they called at 3pm to say they were done and had already left ? no heads-up that they were wrapping up, no walkthrough, no explanation of the new system. Just gone. Their contract also promises to "remove old equipment and clean work area to customer's satisfaction." What we actually found: two giant orange traffic cones left behind, a Brita filter, pieces of wood, and literal dirt"

"High praise to B.K. Electric Services! Great on-time service with a “Can Do” attitude. They did an excellent job installing a very long wire run for an EV charger. Enrique was the representative that came out for the free quotation. He had recommendations that the competition did not offer. The installers (George & Erick), were polite, and hard workers. I’m a little critical on some details of the work being performed. George & Erick addressed my concerns very much to my satisfaction. The office staff were friendly and efficient. I don’t give many reviews, but had to do it for this company. I will be using their services in the future. Thank You, B.K. Electric Services"

FAQs for electrical switches, outlets & fixtures install or repair projects in Carpinteria, CA

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.
