"Scott came out to trouble shoot our electrical problem when we could not get 4 other electrical companies to call us back. They quickly discovered the problem and made repairs. They were knowledgeable, professional and personable. Definitely recommend them and will definitely use them again when needed."

"Installation of an electric vehicle charging outlet in a detached garage was excellent over the course of several days including digging a trench from the house to the garage. Mariusz and Vlad were very professional arriving on time and transparent about the progress of the work each day. The work is definitely done with care and exceeds what the electrical code specifies. I would definitely recommend them for electrical work and in fact have asked them to do additional wiring work for security cameras and additional outlets and lights."

"We had some dead electrical outlets that the circuit breaker flipping did not fix. Found the problem (60 year old breaker w/ corroded contacts) and fixed it. Had them also replace two electrical outlet (near our washing machine, one in the bathroom) with GCFI outlets to bring them (closer) to code. Also pointed out that our electrical panel is at the age to be replaced, but did not push into anything ."

"Ralph and his son were great! Ralph gave me some suggestions that would work when one of the fixtures I purchased wouldn't work in the space. He was personable, efficient, reasonable and quickly responds if I had any questions. He left the workspace spotless. I highly recommend R Savvy for any electrical needs!"

FAQs for electrical switches, outlets & fixtures install or repair projects in Des Plaines, IL

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.
