"Mike was great from the beginning. It took me months to find a contractor that kept to their word on getting me quotes and keeping to the work spec. We had a sub panel added to our garage as well as some lights and a 3 way switch from the house setup through them. Everything was laid out well, done with pride in their work and with no fuss about additions added by the electrical inspector for code. Everything was handled and I didn't need to ask twice for anything. Mike presented options of how it would be setup and we chose the best path forward. Communication was A+ and I never had to chase him for anything. The work was neat and done very professionally and I couldn't be happier. Electrical inspector also had no issues with their work and signed off immediately. I will be using them in the future for other projects I have coming and I'm recommending them to my mom for work she needs done as well. 100% pleased with everything from first contact to job wrap up."

"I had Blackout Electric LLC rewire the majority of my house. He replaced the knob and tube wires; installed 15 light fixtures, hardwired 6 detectors and installed new outlets throughout the house. His work was exceptional, as well as his advice and work ethic. Haendley worked hard to make sure that everything was done right and to my satisfaction. I highly recommend Blackout Electric LLC to everyone who needs electrical work done. "

"Mike was just a pleasure to work with an extremely accommodating especially during a very busy time for electricians in the area. He came to my home at 6 AM so I could have an outlet repaired. I have seldom seen such dedication and effort to help the customer when needed. The services are reasonably priced, and the customer service goes above and beyond. I would highly recommend them, and I will use them again in the future for all of my electrical needs."

"Called right away. Came over the same day. I had anticipated a more complicated problem (circuit breaker or panel), but Mike quickly found and fixed a simpler (but atypical) problem: defective GFC in the circuit outlet."

"Cory was communicative and professional. He showed up on time and was reasonably priced. I gave him two light fixtures completely boxed up and he had them installed in my bathroom in a couple hours as well as changing a switch over to a dimmer. There was even some trouble with my ceiling wiring and he troubleshooted on the spot. Very appreciative! "

FAQs for electrical switches, outlets & fixtures install or repair projects in South Portland, ME

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.
