Rick's Handyman Services, LLC is here for all your handyman and appliance repair needs! No project is too small or large. Give us a call for a free estimate on your project!
"If I could give this guy a zero rating I would. He came 2-19-20 to give us an estimate on our failing toilet and drippy faucet. He was coming yesterday, 2-21-20, to do the repair at 3:30pm. My husband took the afternoon off work to be home. At 3:40pm he still was not here, so I called him. He told me I should **get someone else**. He comes across as a **good old boy** and will talk your leg off. Even about other customers. He drives a retired vehicle and I would think would have ample room to stock normal plumbing repair parts such as a toilet fill valve one would think. Unreliable. Move on from him is my opinion. My husband was so mad he watched online videos, and did the necessary repairs for $20."

Watch for warning signs, including discolored or warm faceplates, burning smells, sparking, loose-fitting plugs, and intermittent power delivery. Outlets that are more than 15 to 20 years old may lack important safety features like tamper resistance, even if they appear functional. Flickering lights or frequently tripping circuit breakers when using an outlet suggest potential wiring issues that merit professional evaluation.
While outlet replacement might appear straightforward, electrical work carries significant safety and compliance risks. Professional electricians understand proper grounding techniques, wire connections, and building code requirements. Improper installation can lead to shock hazards, electrical fires, and potential insurance complications. Most municipalities require licensed professionals for electrical modifications to ensure work meets safety standards.
A professional electrician needs less than 30 minutes to replace a standard outlet under normal circumstances. Factors that may extend this timeframe include difficult access locations, outdated wiring that requires updating, or the need for specialized outlet types like GFCI installations. Larger projects involving multiple outlets benefit from economies of scale, though whole-house replacements require several days to complete.
GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlets continuously monitor electrical current flow and automatically disconnect power when they detect imbalances that could cause shock hazards. Standard outlets provide power without this protection mechanism. Building codes mandate GFCI outlets in locations where water exposure is possible, including kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and outdoor areas. While GFCI outlets cost approximately twice as much as standard versions, they provide essential safety protection.
Replacing an existing standard outlet with a GFCI outlet costs between $100 and $200, including both materials and professional installation. The material cost for a GFCI outlet ranges from $7 to $25, significantly higher than standard outlets due to their built-in protection circuitry. Installing a new GFCI outlet where none previously existed costs between $150 and $300 due to additional wiring requirements.
Basic outlet replacement won't significantly impact energy consumption. However, specialized options like smart outlets can help manage energy usage by allowing programmed scheduling and remote control of connected devices. These features let you automatically power down electronics when not in use. Additionally, replacing deteriorated outlets with loose connections can eliminate energy waste and reduce potential safety hazards from resistance heating.
