## Outlet & Switch Installation in Mill Valley, CA

Adding an outlet looks trivial and often is, but where the power comes from decides whether the new receptacle is useful or just one more device on an already loaded circuit. We check the circuit before we tap it.

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 Mill Valley

### Outlet won't hold a plug

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

### Only two outlets in the room

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

### 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.

## Reviews from Marin County

★★★★★

GFCI in the bathroom kept tripping. They found real leakage in an old fixture rather than just replacing the GFCI and calling it done.

Breaker tripped Sunday night and I got a call back in about ten minutes. Tech found a bad connection in a junction box behind the closet, fixed it that night, and the price was what he said on the phone.

Flickering through the whole house turned out to be a loose neutral at the service. They found it in under an hour when two other companies had shrugged.

## Outlet & Switch Installation in Mill Valley — questions

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.

Do I need GFCI outlets in my Mill Valley home?

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

How much does it cost to add an outlet in Mill Valley?

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.

Can you install smart switches and outlets?

Yes. The catch is that many smart devices need a neutral in the switch box, which older Mill Valley 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.
