How it works
Identify and shut off the circuit
We find the right breaker, verify power is off with a tester, and confirm the circuit is dead before opening the box.
Swap the device
We disconnect the old outlet or switch, connect the new one with proper polarity, and secure it plumb in the box.
Test and button up
We restore power, plug in a tester, flip the switch, and install the cover plate for a finished look.
Problems we fix
- Backstabbed wiring on old outlets that can cause intermittent failures
- Oversized aftermarket devices that don't fit in shallow older boxes
- No ground wire in older homes — limits which upgrades are practical
- Outlets wired in reverse polarity that can pose a safety risk
Outlet & Switch Replacement in Charleston — FAQ
Can you install a GFCI outlet in my kitchen or bathroom?
Yes — GFCI protection is required near water sources by current code. We install them in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and outdoors, and verify they trip and reset properly.
My outlet has two prongs — can you add a ground?
A two-prong outlet means the circuit may lack a ground wire. We can install a GFCI outlet in its place, which is a code-accepted solution, and label it 'No Equipment Ground.'
Can you install a USB-C outlet?
Yes. We carry USB-A and USB-A/C combo outlets that fit standard boxes. Great for bedside and desk locations.
Outlet & Switch Replacement across Charleston
Charleston's humid subtropical climate, salt air and active storm season are tough on homes — swollen doors, rusting hardware, mildew-prone caulk and storm-loosened trim are all common. Downtown's historic houses add original plaster walls and tight, detailed millwork, while West Ashley and the islands bring newer builds with their own quirks. Our pros are comfortable with both.
