"Mike Ferriera had installed two bathroom fan/light units for us in October 2013. We were pleased with his efficient and professional, though friendly manner, so we called him again this summer to prepare our two-door two-car garage for installation of garage door openers. 
He was on time for the appointment and got right to work. Seemed like a straightforward task at first but there was some strategy involved in wiring to meet code, which he worked out and implemented efficiently after consulting with us regarding options.
With the outlets installed, we were able to have the doors installed with no glitches.
I would recommend Ferriera Electric for any electrical job - simple or complicated, large or small.

"S & S Electric did a fantastic job. They were friendly, knowledgeable, efficient and their price was better than all competitors'. They cleaned up after themselves, they did some extra work without trying to nickel and dime me. I am very happy with the work they performed and will gladly use them again."

"I needed to have the electric switch/light dimmer replaced for my Dining Room light. I felt that I was grossly overcharged for their services based on the time that it took to replace the switch. I was charged a total of $257.00; which included $50.00 for the new switch and $200.00 for the labor and diagnosis. The $200.00 labor portion was exorbitant because it took the electrician only 15 minutes to replace the switch. Additionally, the electrician arrived at my home 2 hours later than the time that the appointment was scheduled for."

"Had a Tornado hit my house and ripped out my mains power. Figured I'd upgrade the panel while I was at it and have a generator outlet installed for when I lose power again. Nick was VERY professional - gave me a quote, showed up on time, answered all of my questions, and the price was exactly where I expected it to be. Job was very well done. When the power went back on, my fridge didn't have power. He helped me pull the fridge out to find a GFI outlet, and he helped me reset it. Was really just a huge help! The guy is clearly a hard worker who really knows what he's doing. What I love is that I didn't talk to a sales guy who then sent a couple of kids to do the job. I got a quote, and the guy I spoke to did the work. That's awesome. I can't recommend this guy highly enough! Will reach out for any and all electrical work in the future."

FAQs for electrical switches, outlets & fixtures install or repair projects in East Providence, RI

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.
