"They did an excellent job. Installed under counter lighting, ceiling fans, an outdoor outlet, and dimmer switches. Very friendly and professional. I would hire them again to do electrical work in my home, knowing the job was done right and for a reasonable price."

He did all the work in just over an hour and was neat and friendly. Will definitely call Capital District Electric again and recommend to others."

"G and W Electric. Talk about dedicated to his business and his customers. After coming to my business and checking out our needs. He put together a plan to replace my whole electrical service at our Laundromat/carwash. This was by no means a cakewalk. My concerns were how long will my business be shut down. G&W assured me he would stay and work until the job was done. Well he sure did. He showed up at 2 in the afternoon and began working. He actually worked 24 hours straight and had the brand new service completed at 2 the next afternoon. Now that is dedication to his customer. Will i have him back in the future? Hell yes. We talked about a generator for our building and will see what comes of that. But as far as work ethic goes. He and his company are top notch and I recommend him to anyone that needs electrical work done. Apparently no job is too big for this company."

"Excellent work. Upstate has a team who know what to do. From the time they came to look at the job to the finish was 2 hours. That included purchasing the lights and the wiring and switches for the job."

"Jeff installed four security lighting fixtures for me. He had to do a little extra on one as the sensor was bad. He arrived on time and completed the work in a very timely manner. His work as high quality and his bill was more than reasonable for the time spent. He is preparing another estimate for running wiring out to my shed."

"Zach installed a new electrical outlet for our dryer. He took the time to explain what he was going to do and had the work done within 2 days of giving the estimate. I would use him again for any electric work. "

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