"They arrived promptly for the estimate. The same day I received an email contract. I signed and asked them to start on a certain date about two weeks out. They responded and said yes no problem. I didn’t schedule any work and the day arrived and after 45 minutes passed with a no show or phone I called them. The owner had responded to my email not the electrician who came out and the owner failed to put it in the schedule and didn’t tell any employees either. The power company was not notified either. The work was done a week and a half later. The workers and the work was great except (inside garage work) they cut through into the inside sheet rock. They offered to have a sheet rock person come out but it was an easy patch so I fixed it myself. For the fact that they inconvenienced me they gave me some upgrades at no extra charge. Overall I’m pleased and would hire them again."

"David and Mike were given a variety of issues in our historic house to deal with including mystery switches, installing an outdoor plug, and solving ceiling fan issues. It required them to go under the house to solve two of these issues and they did it with ease and agility. Would hire them again in a heartbeat. Oh, and they were punctual and very courteous, especially with my nutty dogs."

"Clinton was fast, efficient and professional. The installation is excellent and attractive. Clinton cleaned up all the unpacking mess of the fan boxes and took the packing boxes and materials with him as he exited our home. I will be using Whatley Electric again when we need electrical service."

FAQs for electrical switches, outlets & fixtures install or repair projects in Northport, AL

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.
