"Definitely would recommend. Rich and his assistant did a great job at a great price. They fixed multiple electrical issues on our 1940's home that we had just purchased. Some items were just updates like changing a dryer plug from a 3 prong to a 4 prong but others were safety issues such as changing an outdoor outlet to a GFI. We found Rich to be straight forward and easy to work with. We will not hesitate to call him for future electrical needs."

"I NEVER write reviews - who has time for that? Goodside Electric, however, is worth the few minutes! They are excellent! First of all, I found Goodside through Angie’s List. We called several other area electricians. Some never returned the call or quoted much higher rates. I called Goodside Electric and Warren returned my call within an hour, gave me a rough estimate, and scheduled an appointment within a week! Warren is very professional! He arrived on time, was very friendly and courteous, and explained everything that he was going to do - in detail. He did an excellent job! Also, he gave us a great rate! NO NEED TO LOOK ANY FURTHER! Goodside Electric is the only choice for quality and affordable electrical service repairs! We would recommend Goodside Electric without hesitation. We are completely satisfied with the work he performed on our home and would hire Goodside Electric again in a heartbeat!"

"Once I called, they quickly sent someone out to give me an estimate. They answered all my questions and informed me of how they would tackle the work. The estimate I received was nearly 1/3 less than a competitors work, and I liked that they would not be running any wires outside my house. The most "damage" there would be would be a small hole in my dining room ceiling to run wire up to an outlet upstairs. It took about 3 weeks, to get the job scheduled, but all along the company was informative (they were going to be a little later than anticipated the day of the work) and professional. The technician Joseph G and his assistant were amazing! Again, answering any questions I had the day of and the best part is, they didn't even need to make a whole in the ceiling. These electrical magicians were able to run the wire up and through the wall to the upstairs outlet. Needless to say, I would hire CW Electrical again in a heartbeat."

"The name of the company says it all!! Brian and his electricians were professional, experienced, and very friendly. Brian either answers his phone or returns calls within an hour! And they showed-up on time which I can't remember the last time a contractor has! I am definitely using Awesome Electrical in the future and highly recommend them."

"They did a great job, arrived early and installed a 240 volt outlet for an electric vehicle in an hour and 15 minutes. This included running wire from the garage up into the attic, across a wall and back down onto the other side of the garage. I highly recommend them."

FAQs for electrical switches, outlets & fixtures install or repair projects in Pittsburgh, PA

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.
