"Two workmen showed up at the designated time and installed 'in wall' electrical for undercabinet lighting in the wall along with trouble shooting additional 3-way light switches, dimmers, and USB outlets. Work was fast, efficient, and professionally done within the allotted time. Would definitely recommend and will use Nasr Electrical again in the future."

"good service, tech show up on time as scheduled and courtesy and professional; however, I feel that I was way over charged ($425) for installation of one GFI outlet and light switch with existing electrical already ran."

"Lemus Electrical did a great job with my 240 Volt outlet job. This was for adding an electrical stove to the home. Lemus was quick, reasonably priced, and very knowledgeable about the work. I would easily recommend them to others or use them again myself."

"Deybi was super professional and he took the time to explain the electrical system in my old house and recommended the best option. He and his partner also took the time after the work was done to clean up after the work was done and made sure that I was satisfied with the final work. Would definitely hire again!"

"Kenneth and Juwan from AMEW electrical did a fantastic job installing a NEMA 14-50 Wall Connector for my Tesla. They were quick to respond, had great communication prior to the visit, were early and had one of the better prices for the project involved. Along with being one of the top rated on the Tesla website for electricians in the area. During the visit, Kenneth explained to me what was going on, even when I was quiet, he would ask me if I had any questions what he was doing. Even curious electrical questions I had like how do you know where to move around as to not get electrocuted or if you're drilling a hole, making sure you know not do hit a wire. He was great in answering any question I had. Both were super personable during my interactions with them. I was able to charge the Tesla immediately after they completed the work. They even cleaned up all the dust and debris from the installation. 5 out of 5 will definitely hire them again and use them for any electrical work I need to do around the house. I can't recommend them enough."

"I had 4 electrical outlets lose power. I was expecting a very involved process to get them fixed. To my delight, Carlos spent 1.5 hours troubleshooting and fixed the problem - at a very reasonable price. I am very grateful. :-) I am very grateful to Delectricc LLC as well. They were super responsive to my Anji’s list request and booked an appointment on the next work day. So quick response, excellent work, fabulous price."

He is always available if I have questions and he responds with a smile. He is the electrician we call when electrical work is needed."

FAQs for electrical switches, outlets & fixtures install or repair projects in Kensington, MD

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.
