"I called to inquire concerning installation of full-house backup generator. Right Electrical Services set an appointment; Company representative arrived my residence on time and went immediately to work with me in inspecting the appropriate placement, discussed with me thoroughly the scope of work to be done, the process of the installation and the coordination Right Electrical would do with electrical, power company and propane provider, and estimated time to complete installation. Representative provided me with a verbal estimate of expense, and promised a written estimate within a few hours. Estimate arrived within 90 minutes; Representative followed up email with telephone call while I was reading estimate to provide further detail regarding estimate. I have commissioned the work and sending signed copy of estimate to Right Electric when I close this rating. Tom M. , Northern Wake County NC"

"I can’t say enough good things about Harris Electrical, “Five stars all the way! I was completely impressed with their professionalism and customer service. Dalton put in all the electrical outlets needed for my pool, he added extra outlets to my screened in porch and deck. Pricing was great and the quality of work was fantastic. I needed to have a fence grounded, talked to Brandon about it and three days later it was done. Dalton and Brandon made the entire process smooth and stress-free. I will definitely be using their services again in the future."

FAQs for electrical switches, outlets & fixtures install or repair projects in Cary, 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.
