Question 1

Is a warm outlet dangerous?

Accepted Answer

It is a warning sign. Unplug everything from it, turn off the breaker if you know which one it is, and book an electrician.

Question 2

Do you install new outlets?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We check panel capacity, plan the route and quote the outlet or circuit on site, including any wall patching.

Question 3

Why won't my GFCI outlet reset?

Accepted Answer

Either the GFCI has failed, it has no power reaching it, or there is a ground fault on the circuit. We test for all three before replacing anything.

Question 4

What are my options for ungrounded two-prong outlets?

Accepted Answer

The two main options are new grounded wiring or GFCI protection labeled as ungrounded. We test the wiring and quote both where both are possible.

Question 5

Where is the GFCI that controls my dead outlets?

Accepted Answer

Look for a GFCI in a bathroom, the garage, the kitchen or outside; one device can protect outlets in other rooms. If resetting them does not help, we can trace the circuit for you.

Question 6

How much does outlet repair cost?

Accepted Answer

The price depends on what testing finds, so we quote on site and you approve before any work begins.
