"Awesome, from start to finish. If you want to be treated like family and you want the safety and support of experts that know exactly what it takes to make sure you and your family are safe and the job is done right, then turn to Brandon Electric Inc. This is the reason I continue to go to them and why they will always be my go-to electricians. Thanks again Jeff and team, amazing job as always! They worked with my requirements for a 50 Amp Transfer Switch for my generator, including the outlet being placed in a distant location, the worked to replace multiple ceiling lights, all LED, including in-ceiling lights, they installed dedicated outlets for my new transfer switch, they replaced older outlets and switches and they helped to review and check pre-existing switches and outlets from a previous job by a different team."

"Glenn was courteous, personable and informative. He takes his time with customers to explain both the current state of things in their home and how to use whats being installed. The install was difficult and ended up taking triple the time yet Glenn didnot charge much more than a few extra bucks for extra material. He even carved out extra time after to give me 2 additional quotes. He is phenomenal and as a woman who has been taken by a good number of less than reputable contractors he has now gained a lifetime customer."

"Suddenly I had a weird problem in my home where some outlets and switches on a circuit were working and some not, and needed an electrician right away. I called several based on their Angies List reviews. John answered my call, and gave me an approximate time when he could be here. He called later to give me an update on his arrival time. Upon arrival, John proceeded to diagnose the problem. He provided me the pricing in advance. He spent quite a bit of time diagnosing, pointing out some other things, tightening up some other connections, etc. He found the problem and fixed the wiring in the box, and explained to me what was wrong. John was professional and courteous. Highly recommended."

"Brad was a true professional. After his diagnosis of the issues, he clearly laid out his plan and what needed to be done to install our new outlets. He provided price options for other improvements we could make. During the project, he had to fish through our fireplace and walls, and did so very carefully. For the holes needed for the fishing, he patched up perfectly. We now have an outlet on our stone fireplace (for a mounted tv) and another for gaming consoles and other peripherals. Before leaving, he provided a list of other services and home improvements to keep in mind, which was great since we just moved in to a new home a couple weeks ago. We’ll definitely be working with Brad again in the future!"

"Electrical in an older home can be complicated. We had several people give outrageous estimates or never show up to do the work. Stapleford electric was prompt in providing an estimate and completed the work with quality. The cost for installing a new outlet and bracing for a large, heavy chandelier was fixed cost and other work was a time and materials rate. Both were reasonable and they knew what they were doing with the old style wiring. We had an additional expense to get plaster repaired separately but that would have been the case no matter who did the electrical work - they referred us to a master plasterer which was great. I have no reservations to recommend or use Stapleford again."

"Frank Hammer and his team did a great job upgrading my electrical panel and installing a new floodlight. They worked clean, and fixed a few extra issues found along the way. Really solid and reliable work."

"Everything went well. Some of the outlets and switches connected to one of the new breakers went out but the breaker did not trip. After awhile the power to those outlets and switches suddenly came back on. Jordan came back out to inspect. The wiring in most of the house is very old and he explained and showed me the differences. He gave me an Amprobe and explained to me how to troubleshoot should the power go out again without the breaker tripping. This will narrow down and possibly identify where the chain is breaking in the power."

FAQs for electrical switches, outlets & fixtures install or repair projects in Philadelphia, PA

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.
