How it works
Cut power and swap the device

Problems we fix

USB Outlet Installation in Columbia — FAQ
What's the difference between USB-A and USB-C outlets?
USB-A ports handle standard charging for older phones and accessories. USB-C delivers faster power and works with newer phones, tablets, and laptops. Combo units offer both, which covers almost everything.
Can you install USB outlets anywhere in the house?
Yes — kitchen counters, bedrooms, home offices, garages. The only location that needs special consideration is near water, where a GFCI-equipped USB outlet is the right choice.
Will my phone charge faster with a USB outlet than with a wall adapter?
It depends on the outlet's amperage rating. Better models deliver up to 30W per port, which rivals most wall adapters. We'll show you the specs of what we're installing.
USB Outlet Installation across Columbia
Columbia's long, hot, humid summers are hard on homes — HVAC strain, swollen doors, deck and fence wear, and moisture around windows and caulk are all common. Older in-town neighborhoods bring hardwood floors, plaster and original millwork, while the Northeast and the Lake Murray side add newer builds with their own needs. Our pros are comfortable with both.
