"I’ve hired Mynor Electric several times—for new 240V/110V lines, a subpanel upgrade, and full kitchen/bath remodel wiring—and every time, Mynor and his team have been exceptional. He’s punctual, hardworking, and takes real pride in doing things right, not just fast. What sets him apart: • Extremely thorough and code-compliant • Patient, polite, and easy to work with • Troubleshoots thoughtfully and follows up after jobs • Fair pricing, no upselling • Great team (Alex and Nestor are equally reliable) When an inspector flagged a few AFCI/GFCI issues, Mynor personally called to clarify and ensure everything met code. That kind of diligence is rare. I trust him completely and wouldn’t call anyone else for electrical work. Outstanding value and workmanship!"

FAQs for electrical switches, outlets & fixtures install or repair projects in Palo Alto, CA

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.
