## Outlet & Switch Installation in Emeryville, CA

Extension cords under rugs and power strips daisy-chained behind the sofa are the two most common things we find in Emeryville homes, and both trace back to the same problem: not enough outlets in the right places.

Call (833) 652-8933 and describe what is happening. If it is a same-day job we will book it today, and if it needs a site visit to quote properly we will tell you that too.

## Situations we see in Emeryville

### No GFCI in the kitchen or bath

Wet-location circuits need it. Adding protection at the first device in the run covers everything downstream.

### Only two outlets in the room

Older Emeryville bedrooms were wired for a lamp and a clock. We extend the circuit or run a new one, depending on existing load.

### Outlet won't hold a plug

Worn contacts. A loose receptacle arcs under load, and replacement is a ten-minute job worth doing immediately.

### Need power on a kitchen island

Islands need receptacles, and we can bring them up cleanly through a cabinet or a pop-up device without tearing up the counter.

## Reviews from Alameda County

★★★★★

Warehouse high bay retrofit to LED. Did it over a weekend so we never stopped shipping, and the place is twice as bright.

Zinsco panel replaced. Straight quote, one day of work, and they handled the utility disconnect scheduling so I didn't have to call anyone.

Tesla Wall Connector in the garage, clean conduit run, done in an afternoon. They talked me out of a panel upgrade I didn't actually need.

## Outlet & Switch Installation in Emeryville — questions

How much does it cost to add an outlet in Emeryville?

A new receptacle on an existing nearby circuit is the low end. Cost rises if we have to run a new home run from the panel or open finished walls. Call (833) 652-8933 and we will quote your specific spot.

What is a dedicated circuit and do I need one?

It is a circuit serving one appliance only. Microwaves, window AC units, space heaters and shop tools all want one, and it is the permanent fix for a breaker that trips whenever two things run at once.

Can you install smart switches and outlets?

Yes. The catch is that many smart devices need a neutral in the switch box, which older Emeryville homes often lack. We check first and tell you before you buy.

Can you add an outlet on an outside wall?

Yes, with a weather-resistant receptacle and an in-use cover. That is the correct assembly for a location exposed to rain or sprinklers.

Do I need GFCI outlets in my Emeryville home?

In kitchens, bathrooms, garages, laundry areas, unfinished basements and anywhere outdoors, yes. If your house predates those requirements it very likely has none.
