"I was thrilled with Ferrer Electric. Customer service was exceptional. Their work was on- time, professional, and fully compliant. Eddie was knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. The work consisted of installing two new 20 amp circuits, multiple outlets, removing and installing four new light fixtures. I highly recommend Ferrer Ellectric."

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."

"Blazer Electric was excellent. They installed a new outlet in my kitchen with causing minimal mess since this was a brand new outlet so I could install an oven range hood. They used all the PPE precautions and were pretty thorough and polite. I will definitely have them do my future electrical work when needed."

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