"I have an old house in the Woodlawn section of the Bronx, built in 1910. I’ve had at least 3 electricians work on it, but I’ve used only Ken exclusively since I first contacted him in February 2019. Since then he’s done some simple things like replace old power outlets and light fixtures, but also some more complicated projects like installing a 220 power outlet for a stove in our basement. Most recently he installed an electric car charger in my garage, definitely a non-trivial project, especially given how old our house is. Ken is very professional, dependable, and extremely competent. His prices are reasonable and I trust his instincts, especially regarding safety which is critical for an electrician. He provides valuable suggestions at the start of a project which often save me money. He’s also a great guy and a joy to work with. I hope he never retires."

"We needed a subpanel installed to our electrical system and wiring extended into our garage for the installation of a Tesla wall charger. Wilfredo & Dennis did the job for Spirelli. They were prompt, polite, COVID-safe, and did a great job."

"Amazing work that was completed at my home by technician Pedro. I hired Antonio Ferrao electrical company to install 3 recess lighting with switches to 3 of my closets, that had no previous lighting. The finish job is neat, beyond my expectations, knew what to do without me having to guide them, and very professional. I will highly recommend this company to the residents of Westchester County and other areas that are served by this company."

"Excellent electrician! John arrived at the agreed to time. He was personable, organized, and ready to work. After he removed the old light, John discussed the location of the lights. John made sure the location was precisely correct prior to the installation. He climbed into the attic and ensured there were no surprises involving placement of the joists. His attention to detail resulted in a smooth installation which was completed in a couple hours. The final resul is a beautiful improvement to the space. John definitely knows his business and was a pleasure to work with."

"I knew I needed to get a new circuit board because the old one kept blowing out. Antonio Ferrao sent his truck over within hours of my call and his men inspected my old circuit board and showed me the problem circuit breakers and even the discolored area around one which was heating up. They gave me a quote with 10% off if I could pay cash. I hired them. They came the next day, and kindly kept my generator on so I could have electricity while they shut off the main line to change the circuit board. They were fast, efficient, labeled all the new circuit breakers, and cleaned up completely. I would recommend them to anyone."

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