## Situations we see in Rancho Santa Margarita

### 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.

### 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 Rancho Santa Margarita 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.

## Reviews from Orange County

★★★★★

Smart switches wouldn't work because there was no neutral. They pulled one, got everything on Lutron, and set up the scenes before leaving.

★★★★★

Kitchen breaker kept popping whenever we ran the microwave and kettle. They put in a dedicated circuit instead of just telling us to use one appliance at a time.

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

## Outlet & Switch Installation in Rancho Santa Margarita — questions

How much does it cost to add an outlet in Rancho Santa Margarita?

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.

Do I need GFCI outlets in my Rancho Santa Margarita home?

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

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 Rancho Santa Margarita 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.
