"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."

"The owner responded immediately on. Sunday and gave me his cell phone number. I called and he helped troubleshoot the issue, which was successful. We still scheduled a visit to have one of his employees do some maintenance on our wiring and to take a look at our dryer which kept tripping the breaker. He provided a temporary fix for the latter and then the owner referred us to an appliance repair guy who ordered the replacement part and then installed it for the permanent fix. Bottom line: Bill Hyman is a true professional (and problem solver), making sure we got what we needed!"

"This job was done quickly and correctly. I used him in the past with running stove upgraded wire to the electrical box. I was very happy with that project, so I used Vital Electric again and will use him in the future! Pricing is very reasonable."

"David was friendly and professional. He did not charge me a crazy overhead for anything and he was totally fine with me providing the bulk of the materials (other companies I talked to gave me trouble there). I think the price was just right for the amount and quality of the work done. I would definitely use Stiffler Electric again and recommend them to family and friends."

"Dominic was great. He arrived right on time and started tracing a hard-to-find short. For over four hours he checked socket after socket, switch after switch, ultimately crawling through spaces I didn't know existed. He found the problem, a rodent-chewed wire that was a likely fire hazard. He corrected the problem with new junction boxes and updated the outdoor sockets. He demonstrated a level of knowledge, professionalism and determination that puts him at the top of my list of go-to electricians. I'll be asking him back soon to take care of some outdoor lights that need upgrading. I hope he won't be bored!"

"Kevin Williams was sent to repair problems created by another electrician hired by Kitchen Saver during an expansive kitchen re-face and cabinet installation. Among other things, he re-located an unsightly transformer that had been previously secured to the inside of the first shelf of a main kitchen cabinet to a lower cabinet out of sight. Voila! Then, he re-routed unsightly wiring previously clamped to the far corner of a glass display cabinet so that it was out of sight. These were difficult puzzles to solve, as the new cabinets had already been installed and there was no longer easy access. Kevin was friendly, professional, and experienced! Great job!"

"not just professional efficient! Unbelievably fair priced literally less than half of what a major competitor on this site quoted using my own parts and my own wire! Just because there are any energy list doesn’t mean some people won’t try and rip you off and fools will pay it. Mr. NAGY is a professional and very ethical. I’d recommend hiring him again and again!"

Saul met me at my house later the same day, and he was able to do the work the next morning. Great customer service, very knowledgeable, great work quality, competitive price and a really nice guy to work with. I ll call Saul and Three Brothers for all my electrical work in the future."

FAQs for electrical switches, outlets & fixtures install or repair projects in Silver Spring, 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.
