"CMC Electric immediately responded to our request for three ceiling fan installments. They offered to come out and give a quote and to complete the task immediately following if the quote was acceptable. We received a better rate than anticipated and the work was done perfectly. All three fans were different and required differences with installation. To operate with remotes and one is connected to double switches on the wall.

"Saved Worst service I. have ever received. Told work would be completed in 1 day. Over the last 2 weeks they have been at my house for a day and a half.They got some work done on day 1, left early on day 2 having only put a chandelier up and wired 2 rooms . They were to have come for a 3rd day yesterday. They never showed up. They were to come today and spend 8 hours finishing the project. It's 4:00 and the have not come. Still no lights put up upstairs, no chandelier moved, no light put on guest room ceiling. I read the great reviews and expected them to have everything done in the 1 day they told me. I would never hire them again and wish I had known this before. I fired them and hired another electrician who got the whole thing done in 4 hours during 1 day. "

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.
