"Had other options but I got lucky with the experienced plumber sent to my house. In 2018 Ben Franklin plumbing made huge mistakes on a new water line install and made a mess of everything. Mr. Rooter was able to quickly identify and fix the problem with my main water line for thousands less than other big national chains."

"We were having issues with flickering and dimming lights throughout the house, contacted them for diagnostic. Fixed a minor issue in panel but they couldn’t find the reason for the flicker, suggested we replace dimmer switches but only a few rooms had dimmers. Two days later the condition worsened, did a Google troubleshooting search and found the suggestion to contact power company to have them check the power coming into the house. Duke ran a diagnostic and found we did have an issue between the pole and the house. Took several hours but Duke said the problem was fixed. So far, so good. We feel that this option should have been mentioned when no problem was found in our electrical panel."

"This is the second time Iâ ve used On Time Electrical. Again, I was impressed with their punctuality and the technicianâ s ability to listen to me as I outlined what I perceived to be the problem. He promptly looked at my light fixture, the light switch, the breaker box outside, came back and identified the problem and fixed it all within an hour. I find their prices to be reasonable and their excellence in execution is consistent."

"I am redoing my garage and hired Copper Electrical to do the elec work. Brian and Roger were excellent throughout. They rewired my garage workshop, installed 4 LED ceiling lights, installed a new LED motion detector light, and redid / installed several switches and outlets. Great work all around. Will definitely call Copper the next time I need to hire an electrician."

"Houston & Barnes Home Solutions delivered an outstanding experience. Cody and Gabe were fantastic from the moment they arrived. They installed multiple ceiling fans, a Ring floodlight, and a Ring camera on the opposite side of the house — all completed with skill and care. What really stood out was how courteous, respectful, and easy to work with they were. They treated my home with care, listened closely to what I needed, and made sure everything was done exactly the way I wanted. Their knowledge showed in every step, and they kept a pleasant, positive attitude the entire time. They arrived promptly, and even when one item came up that wasn’t included in the original quote, they handled it smoothly and kept the pricing very fair. The quality of their work was excellent, and the value was even better. I’m extremely satisfied and would gladly recommend Houston & Barnes Home Solutions to anyone needing dependable home services."

"This is a great company and my first-time experience with them was outstanding! I got an immediate reply and Alexis was incredibly knowledgeable and her consultation and expertise solved my problem very quickly. This is the best service I have received bar none! I highly recommend them and will surely use them in the future for any electrical issues I have. See below for more details. I had a major issue getting into my outdoor circuit breaker box and it was wedged under a tip meter box and I had a tripped GFI in my kitchen. Alexis was able to advise me on how to safely access the breaker panel without damaging the outer box, which was almost impossible to open. Alexis talked me through the process saving me time and the expense of having one the electricians making a trip to just open my breaker box. Thank you Alexis!!"

FAQs for electrical switches, outlets & fixtures install or repair projects in Waxhaw, NC

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.
