"I had 5 ceiling fans installed. His installation process was extremely quick and efficient. He also fixed an outlet issue that I had in my living room on the spot. Would definitely use him again for any other future electrical projects."

"I cannot say enough good things about the electrical work done by Cole Electric. I purchased a stackable washer/dryer but forgot to check that I had an outlet for the dryer close enough to where I wanted to place the units. This became critical because the installers were coming on Monday and this was the Friday before. Cole Electric was rated high on Angie's List so I called and Scott Cole answered. He had one of his electricians come out that same day to assess the job and give me an estimate. They said that they could get started at 0800 the next morning and arrived promptly at 0800 on Saturday morning. Since it was for a dryer, I needed to have a dedicated circuit added to my circuit box and new conduit and lines run. The entire job only took a short time including clean up (yes they cleaned up) and I was ready for the installers to hook up my units on Monday. They charged exactly what they estimated. I intend to use them again for some other electrical needs in my house. I have recommended them to many of my neighbors and friends. I wholeheartedly give them an "A" rating for the work they did for me."

"Upon arriving on time Bryon introduced himself to me and gave me his business cards then ask me what could he do for me? Let me start off by saying that there aren't to many service technicians or repairmen that will explain to you what they are doing without making you feel that you are interrupting their work. Bryon provided me with an estimate that included all my discounts prior to making any repairs, after the installation/repair he cleaned up the area and hauled off all old electrical wiring and cables. My wife and I were very pleased with his service and will continue to use Mr. Electric in the near future! Thank you Mr. Electric!"

"We had an annual electrical inspection. Tech., Deonte, was very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. Any work he did or recommended was fully explained. We have had a new panel installed and other work done by Asbury Electric in a previous home. Highly recommend them. Reasonably priced and excellent work"

"John at Norva Electric came over checked all of our breakers today, all electric outlets, tightened the breakers, and replaced important burned wires, etc, etc, etc. He was prompt, direct, funny (NYer), and knows his stuff! I highly recommend Norva Electric for any of your electric-centric needs :) Don't do what we did and wait until the last minute when things just aren't working! Best!"

"Did a good job. I think if a 120v outlet is fixed. In 10 seconds, it should be $20.00 instead of 350.00. Especially if the other work done total is over $1.000.00, and you?re all done in 1 hour. Just my opinion. 3 stars for the price. The work is 5 stars."

FAQs for electrical switches, outlets & fixtures install or repair projects in Newport News, VA

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.
