"A prompt response by Mark Ellenwood created a comprehensive, well-reasoned plan that also required coordination with the local utility and a tree trimming service. A fixed price was agreed and a tentative schedule presented. Ellenwood Electric coordinated the entire process . The 2 young men who performed the electrical work were skilled, competent, and courteous. Their work was praised by both the utility company personnel and the Ispector. And all work was completed for the exact agreed price."

"Not an honest business, bottom line spent 162.00 said he changed the switch in my power box. Said he did maintenance to wires also. The problem was totally flipped when asked to come out and check the work wanted to charge another fee. Called another electrician and the switch was never replace and multiple wired where all on the same circut. It was that way before. Charged for parts that I never recieved and the rest to put all these connection on the same circut. Called because on room power was going out after mhl. The one room was the only room with power. I Have a 3 bed 2 bath house. Think about that... everything else besides that room all on th same circut. Terrible business practice. When explained tried to change the work we tall about. You admit to doing wire maintenance... ok every room and light and appliance all go out together accept the room that was the problem. I called an emergency electrician who explained what was and was not done. "

FAQs for electrical switches, outlets & fixtures install or repair projects in Rochester, NY

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.
